He's a mustache parakeet, his interests include seeds, sitting on shoulders, chewing on his toys, looking in his mirror, showers, ringing his bell and making a BRRRING! noise, and preening himself.
He is fully flighted, but only really flies somewhere when he's afraid, and prefers to stay on/in his cage. He won't step up while in his cage onto a finger, but will step up onto a stick, outside the cage he'll step up pretty well. He's huggable and you can kiss him on the head/face, but he fears fingers, and only really lets himself be pet while he's in the shower. He says "hello hello hello" and grumbles like a little old man. He's pretty low maintenance on the whole, but isn't as awesome or cuddly as my big birds.
He was Rob's bird, and then Sarah and Cloe's bird, so he's had a rough go of things the past few years and deserves some stability in his life.
where is a good place for a parakeet? Would I keep him in the family room where we are most of the day? Does he prefer more of a quiet area? We should get together soon and talk about birds, life, etc.....besides I haven't met Ian yet. He looks adorable in the pictures you post on here. =)
I'd love to see your place, I have never been there. Let me know which days work for you. This week is already booked for me, but maybe saturday or sunday. =)
