Hi I came here from talkbudgies, currently I have 3 budgies, Trident, Cornelius and Zira. I had fallen in love with a cockatiel that was needing a home so I agreed to buy her. Long story short I got scammed and I was very disappointed and still really wanting a tiel:mad:, I already bought everything that I would need in preparation:rolleyes: So I found 2 gorgeous ones Rocky and Stella:love:, only a few months old. I bring them home tonight! In approximately 3 hours! Can you tell that I'm excited!
I am new to tiels so will probably have lots of questions, and I am familiar with some of you from talkbudgies I am sure! I will post a pic of them later tonight!
Thanks for being here!:D

Thank you for your welcomes! Here are my new babies, Rocky and Stella. Rocky is the grey and Stella is the yellow. I am not sure about their mutations though but I'm sure that I will learn!

Rocky and Stella are gorgeous :D Rocky is a grey and Stella looks to be a cinnamon, I know you said there only a few months old but Rocky looks to be older then that by the yellow on his face I would say he is closer to being an adult.

Thank you for the links xxxSpikexxx those were very helpful!
Yes when I went to get them the guy said he wasn't sure of the age, maybe 8 mos. I still wanted them though. Rocky is very cuddly but Stella is very catious. She'll come around though!
Thanks for the watm welcomes!

Oh yea I agree I still would have wanted them as well they are so cute :love: I just wasn't sure if the guy had made you aware of there age Rocky is older then 8 mths I think he would be closer to a year or older usually they go though two molts to have there face that yellow :D

Welcome :D

He must be older than 8 months because that is how long I have had Earl for and his face isn't that yellow! :lol: LOL!!

They are both really cute! :) Congratulations!

P.S. On TB I am Sophiay, I don't go on there much though! :)
