This
is Chippy, my three-year-old female Cinnamon cockatiel. I have many
birds, from tiny Orange breasted waxbills to a funny Galah! I have four pet
cockatiels, Chippy must be my favorite though as she loves me so much
and I saved her. Three years ago, I saw ad an in the paper, 'hand raised
cockatiels'. So we spent an hour driving to get to the place on a hot
summers day and the place had all their birds in a hot garage with no
air. Chippy was one out of about 100 cockatiels there and she looked
terrible, no tail feathers, or crest and drooping eyes and she kept on
making sad sounds. I bought her out of sympathy. The next few days she
didn't get any better, so I rang the lady to get some answers, but she
didn't answer and never returned my calls.
Ever since then, Chip has been the nicest bird I have and she loves me
sooo much and won't leave me alone. She's full of personality, as you
can just tell! I think she knew she was in for a good life with me! She
has also escaped twice from our two story house and I've found her
running around the backyard! Doesn't go far! She's one lucky bird, and
I'll never part with her now, she's so special :).
