This is a thread where I will be telling you a story about how I was introduced to the life of parrothood. Me & my father were out for a walk when we found a parrot laying on a fence at a park. It was shivering. At this time I did not know what type or what it was. I mean it was the first time i seen it. I felt bad for the bird so i wrapped it up in my jacket and bought it home and put it next to the heater and fed it apples, seeds etc. I had to find out what they eat on the net lol had it for two days and after searching for its owners all over the net i finally found a lost parrot ad on facebook. I messaged the owner and he came to collect it. The parrot got so happy and started to kiss the owner it was so amazing seeing it happy. The owner gave me £200 for my troubles but i rejected it i mean why would i take it the happiness of the parrot made me feel much better. It makes my blood boil when people steal parrots. The parrots name was lulu and the owner bought it when his son was born who was now 13. The bond between the parrot and son was amazing. After that i wanted a parrot lol. I researched and found that cockatiels would be perfect for me so i looked into their diet, behaviours etc for a while and finally bought two:) i will never regret that decision. Amazing pets. The owner couldnt thank me enough for looking after it i also felt good for looking after them.
