I
first saw Spunky when he was about eight weeks old. The breeder that I
bought him from put him and his sibling on her couch. Spunky started
to explore and walked over to his sibling. I wondered if he would walk
around the other pionus or turn around and walk the other way. Spunky
walked right over his brother/sister. I thought to myself, "This little
guy has a lot of spunk!"
Spunky is not a cuddle bug but he loves to be out with us. He sits next
to us and plays with the toys in his toy box and asks for scritches once
in a while. He likes to preen us, too. He loves to take a shower with my
son. It's very hard to get him out once he gets in! He loves his
veggies. He thinks he is getting a real treat when he gets a bowl full
of green beans, broccoli, snow pea pods, red bell pepper and corn. He
also likes any kind of green leafy vegetable. Spunky speaks several
languages. He speaks cockatiel, parakeet and English. He says "Pretty
bird," "Up, up!" "Night, night" and when he gets ignored he says,
"Pretty up, up!" which we think means "Please pick me up now!" He
whistles like our cockatiels and chirps like our parakeets, too. Spunky
is full of life and love and fun.
