Uh...I guess we could call this the impulse buy of 2011 (even though it wasn't really impulsive...it was premeditated, even) but let's just say this little gal recognized a sucker when she saw one.
She's young. Might be a male - I'm guessing female from the gray face. I was aiming for a parakeet, but this little bird came right up to me in the store and spent 20 minutes alternately interacting and/or trying to regain my attention when I walked away. I went back in today and she started singing and dancing. Usually, male cockatiels are the vocal ones, but my family has had two confirmed females who spoke, so it's a crapshoot. Anyway...my icy little heart melted and I got her on the spot.
She is very sweet. My brother is bringing up a proper house for her, so she's in a travel cage at the moment, and she's definitely a handfed baby.
She is sitting on my arm preening right now. She is just precious. :)
