Welcome to the site (to you and Charlie!)...I'd love to see some pics when you get a chance. I'm sure he'll start the chattering in no time if he's a little boy. :) What made you want a tiel?

Hi again,

Many years ago my folks used to have budgies, I have always had pets.
From big fish tanks, cats and dogs, hamsters.

Recently our cat passed away (well was put to sleep)
As its been a while now we wanted something to brighten things up a bit, I always liked tiels as child a friend had a lovely hand reared one that was soft as muck.

And so we set about finding a cockatiel! hes made such a difference to things, really pleased with him.

He doesnt make many sounds yet (4 months old) but chirps a lot when he comes out "look at me" he seems to say all pleased with himself.

Hi there Welcome to the forum, congrats on getting Charlie, he's probably just quiet getting use to his new home I am sure he will perk up soon :) What kind of mutation is Charlie?

Hi,

Charlie is a normal grey, he was doing time in "pet prison" with an all white tiel, but we prefered charlie.

I do like the lutino's tho.

Hi,

Does he look like a boy then? I was told he was male, certainly a pretty boy anyway.
