tracyb Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 I took on a cockatiel approx 4 mths ago. He is 22 yrs old & was kept in a small brass cage. Although allowed out he has very little muscle & cannot really fly. He is quite happy to potter around the windowsill, floor or sit on sofa next to you. He is quite friendly & likes a crisp every now & again & occasionally a bit of prawn cracker. His owners gave him away as they were told he was aggravating the ladies cough although not causing it. We had all intentions of keeping him but unfortunately one of my existing rescue birds has started to be bullied & we need to bring her back indoors. Is anyone able to take Skippy on for the remaining time he has, he's a happy little thing & whistles a tune to his bell during the day. He's not phased by my dogs, even when on the floor at the side of them. I can supply a decent size cage & his toys with him. Would appreciate anyone that can help getting in touch asap as the bullied female needs some time to herself again away from our other rescue birds.

tracyb Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Pleased he got back safe, together with the snakes who will probably be ready for tea by now. He is quite comical especially when he chats to his bell. You'll soon find out what I mean- he has us in stiches with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
