Re: Budgies & Cockatiels

Awww Patsy that is just terrible! I'm so sorry for you & I don't know what I'll do when each of ours is gone. Please accept my sympathy

One of the female tiels we have came with her male partner last Spring. They had 2 clutches of babies then when the 2nd clutch were still very tiny, Benny got out!! He never came back.
We were heartsick & still miss him. Cheeky brought up those babies all by herself.

They sure are special little beings.

I am heartbroken.....she was hand tamed from hatching and has given us so much over the years.
The house is too quiet without her.

I'm so sorry to hear that Pats, no wonder you are heartbroken, 17 years is a very long time to have a pet. Hope you feel a bit better soon. x

We adopted 3 cockatiels within the past 1 1/2 years & 3 adopted budgies.

They all have free flight with our other birds & we love 'em all to bits
I used to be a hobby breeder of Cockatiels, quaker parrots and Sun Conures. At one time I owned an aviary with 56 birds. But when my husband passed, I sold out. Too much work for one person. Now all I have a Timneh African Grey and a green Quaker parrot.

Re: Budgies & Cockatiels

I just picked up a pair of adopted cockatiels on Monday. A 10 year old male Whiteface & his 8 year old 'wife'. The person had named them Fred & Wilma��
I'll keep the names.
