GCC- Ollie 3.9.13.
Cockatiels- RIP Charlie 2012, Zac 2006.
Hi guys, I think I've finally found a breeder close by who seems great. He has yellow sided GCC about to hatch so in a couple of months we will be bring home our new baby!
My question is: I want to make sure the bird we choose is healthy and 'fit' (no deformities etc) as I have 3 young human kids so am not in the market for a rescue type bird at the moment! So what things should I be checking when we go to view the birds? I would appreciate any helpful tips for what I should be looking at 'head to tail' and also what sorts of things may be good or bad about the breeders environment that might signal the birds are or are not cared for well. Thanks in advance.
