Hi I had gotten this male Cocketiel Andy a few days back, he is a great bird and the owner before me has had him since he was 4 weeks old, he is now 8. hes just not the bird for me though,( wants to breed badly ) he just needs an owner who will truly take the time for him, he is a little afraid but tame, he whistles and likes to be up on perches outside the cage. Hopefully he will go to an owner who has a lady bird for him to release some of that stress ;)
