I also own 3 cockatiels - who are all females - called Buster, Tom & Jerry.
I have had buster since I was about 11 - so over 8 years so far, when I had her on her won she was very tame.
However I got her a friend called Max - after that she didn't want to know me!
I also bred her with max and got 4 babies - 3 different clutches. Sadly Jake and Zara passed away.
So I have had Tom & Jerry for about 5/6 years!
I actually saw jerry hatch out his her egg - it was an amazing experience!
All of the girls didn't really enjoy being handled, so I let them be, but obviously I let them fly out of their cage etc...
However max sadly passed away a few months ago and last night for the first time ever - they all happily sad on my shoulder, even when I walked about the living room - so I was a big dad/night for me!
So obviously I had to share some pics!
Btw I am wearing my house coat - to make sure I wasn't a walking scratch post, because of their nails! lol
I look so young!
I took this one as well - I took loads but I haven’t edited the rest yet.
Is anybody else brave enough to post their self with their small creature - furry, feathered, slimy etc...?
