As for which kind, ask PCB! I couldn't tell ya... a Pearl cockatiel? Maybe? Lmao... no idea! They live for quite a long time... about 20 years or easily more. And he... might be a she! Compared to my boys coloring, hers/his isn't very bright. Again, ask PCB or Logan, they know more than I do. Charlie cost approx. $125 at Petco. Some tiels talk, some don't. It all varies.
