Thumpers new name

[mlogansrun]

This is not a picture of Thumper my bird, it is from the internet, but he has the same markings as this one. So why does he maybe need a new name you may ask? You need to know some back story for this.

Thumper eats out of Boyd, the parakeets, seed bowl daily. He actually stands in the seeds. I thought it was some kind of dominance thing, or he really likes to be near Boyd, which he does. He is always perched on his cage and tries to sleep there at night.

Yesterday I walked in the Dungeon and Thumper is perched in the seeds and looks like he is having a seizure. His head is lolling back, his feathers are spread out on his chest and his wings are semi extended and flapping. I thought how am I going to tell the woman who gave me him that he died from a seizure? He recovers after a few seconds and with me yelling his name. Then it dons on me. Thumper is using the side of the bird dish to wank, yeah, wank. I never realized that is what he was doing. It doesn't take long, lol. He did it again later yesterday as well.

So now for his new name. What do you think of Humper? I think Wanker is too obvious. Cheers.
