HI there,
My name is Deborah and I am probably the only Maltese person on this forum! Unlike the rest of you who have left their posts, I am technically new to cockatiels. My first cockatiel, Tchaiko, (who apparently is a female not a male) was found injured outside and I homed her. She is very docile and trusts me a lot. I have now had her for 9 months. This week my friend gave me her tiel, Kiki. (who is actually a male not a female...figure it out!)
Just yesterday I put them in the same cage as I left them seperated at first. They seem to be getting along quite well being strangers, and Kiki is already singing to Tchaiko! I just hope their mood does not change and they will not fight!
I must say, tiels really rock as pets and I started to love them so much!
I also have a cat and a dog who have accepted the birds too.
Thanks for this forum, I think it will really be helpful.
Deborah
