Its been a while since I wrote this web page and its been moved over from freewebs to blogger.
I still have the cockatiels and still love them dearly.
I thought a couple of weeks ago now that Bubba is 11 years old and Bernie is about 15 years old now it was time to have one last breeding session.
My husband made 2 nesting boxes for me , much to his disgust, but anyway Bubba layed her first egg today or maybe yesterday.
Today is the 14th August, 2014 and she is 11 years old. Her boyfriend is still the original chap and his name is Tommo. He was an old bird when he flew into mum and dads neighbours place, he was apparently someone's very special pet and was so gentle and friendly. So mum called us and we gave him a good home with a very loyal wife might I add.
Now Bubba has a little problem she can't stand feathers on her tummy so she plucks them out but the only thing is she plucks her husband feathers around his neck as well. God only knows why, but she seems healthy and happy and well enough.
She even plucked her first lot of babies feathers out at three weeks of age. Its like she has an obsessive compulsive feather problem.
I will be keeping a close eye on her this time and hopefully she has outgrown that behaviour.
So when I post photo's of her don't think she is neglected please is just her personal preference of going around naked. hahahahh
