    New Budgie Friend!

    I have been trying to befriend Paris for months, but he just wants a birdie friend. I've been looking for a budgie on Craigslist, but they are always in pairs or a bunch of them being sold by crappy breeders. So I finally decided to get one from our wonderful local pet store (they get their budgies from a local breeder). I picked out this little cutie this afternoon! S/he is just a baby, 12 weeks old. S/he isn't named yet, but I have a few ideas. I love the name Lincoln, Link for short. I think that would work for either gender, but I'm not sure about the nickname for a girl. I love the name Alice, but only for a girl. Also to go with Paris, I like Eiffel, Effie for short, and Frenchie. I just wish I could tell the gender, but s/he is too young to know for sure. Feel free to suggest other names, unisex would be good!

    Here is the sweet baby!

    I love the name Alice, but only for a girl

    Hi, little cutie! Welcome! . How about Croissant, nothing more French than that! Just kidding ...although..

    I like the names you've been thinking of. When the time comes to know if you've got a male or female..how do you tell?

    Thank you! Mare, you can tell by the color of their ceres. I asked on a budgie forum today, and they said that he is a male. That makes me happy!

    His name is Lincoln, Link for short!

    what a pretty boy! I think my next bird ( in 15-20 years.... ) will be a budgie or a cockatiel.. Lovies are too unaffectionate for me! so glad he and his buddy will be happy together(:

    What a handsome little boy he is. I'm sure Paris will enjoy his company as well as you! Let us know what she thinks of her new roommate.

    Aww, adorable budgie! Not sure if he IS a male though, young budgies are a bit hard to distinguish, but if Lincoln turns out to be a girl you can always call her Lincy or Linnie or something like that.
