Fish, snakes, dogs, hamsters, and now BIRDS! =D

Picked up of pair of cockatiels less then a week ago. They are really my brother's birds...but they are more willing to jump on my finger then his. xD They're funny little guys. :3

No offical names yet...but I call the boy Roffle and the girl Pancake. :D

Cute little guys, didnt know they are that friendly first up.

It depends on how much they were handled when they were little.

birds are a very friendly pet. i used to have some when i was younger, but a year ago we had to give them away to a friend, the friend has moved so i can't see them anymore. they had clipped wings when we first got them so they couldn't fly, i actually set one on my pencil and drew him and the pencil with that very pencil, i did good on the bird but i messed up on drawing the pencil. cockatiels have a stronger bite, but they don't chirp as much as parakeets. one of my friends had cockatiels

They aren't. :laugh:

We got them already hand trained. They would still be in their cage and biting our fingers off if they weren't.

Hehehe, one of them is landing on the Arbiter.

"Me: Arbiter! Find a way to ride on that bird will ya?"

Anywhoo, some cockitails can be very loud. Similar to the alarms I have in my school drill system.
