Anyway,hope to chat with some of you...until the next time...greetings from London,Ont.!!;) :)

Hi! Welcome to PT! I'm sure you'll fit right in here! Your pets sound like sweeties. Actually, cockatiels don't have to be handfed to be tame. Even the wildest of cockatiels and be tamed and become the sweetest babies ever! You just need to spend time with them and work on taming. Once they get over the fear, they stop biting. I don't know if it would be easy to tame your tiel at this age, but you could always try. :) Have you tried taming him properly before?

I have two cockatiels, Popcorn and Muffin, and they are the light of my eyes. They weren't handfed, but they were babies when I got them, so it didn't take more than a few days to tame them. Now they are SO sweet and cuddly, and the perfect clowns. :) You can see them in my signature btw. :)

Hi to you,Popcorn & Muffin!
Thank you for your welcome and your advice!Your birdies are beautiful and its' great that they are so tame and loving.Love to hear more about them and you?Whats' your name?I'm Connie.Anyway,my Lucky is tame enough, but he just dislikes being handled must.When I found him in my garden he was very scared and it took a long time to get him to trust me.No one claimed him and he sure wasn't looked after very well.I have had him for 9 yrs. and he is a happy bird today.I should tell you about my 16 yr. old house-sparrow that I owned once,but maybe another time?
I must go now,I hope you'll drop me a line again and we can chat animals ect.?
I will try to figure out how to do the photos sometime soon!I am rather new to this computer stuff,self taught and still learning,but its' great!
Take care and give Popcorn and Muffin a little cuddle for me!
Connie,Sweetpea & Lucky

Yes, yes, yes another Bunny Person!!!!! We are seriously outnumbered here by dogs and cats but those of us with rabbits are a very vocal group...we may not always agree on things but we support and encourage each other and it is great fun to discuss "the buns". Plus if there is a question or concern one of us usually has an answer, or at least a best guess...... ;)

Hi, Connie, and welcome! I'm new to this group, as well, but as you can already tell, it's a nice and helpful bunch of people. I am owned by three cats (long-haired orange and white named Carmel, a black one named Monty and a long-haired orange named Tigger, all in my signature), two aquatic frogs (one of which I've had over 7 yrs...they can live 20) and a golden Teddy Bear hamster named Cecilia (also in my sig). But I logged on last week to ask about my hamster because she was pregnant! She's had babies and I hear them cry, but I haven't seen them yet! I think they're only 10 days old, so they should be coming out and eating any day now, and I can't wait! When they do, I'll be sure to take some photos and post them. Can't wait to see the little sweeties. She's the best, most protective mommy :)

Anyway, that's my zoo. Your bunny sounds adorable, and your bird sounds like he is the light of your life. Cockatiels are so pretty! Thanks for joining and sharing your pets with us. Can't wait for photos!

By the way, a friend and I were in London, Ontario last summer about this time (we're from Ohio) and went to the casino right across the border....what we saw of the town was great! Beautiful country out there. Have you ever been to the states?

Take care,
Donna (hamsterlover)
