I figured with so many new additions & photos-this was the best spot! to show case them & brag lol These are birds I purchased from a breeder that wanted to cut down..she gave me a deal on them & I of course couldnt refuse now could I? This is my new Cockatiels I named them *snowball & Lemon Drop* since the previous owner didnt have names selected! This is my Bourkes pair- They still have no name! any ideas anyone?? they are so adorable!! so dainty..I just love em! I am hoping the breeder was correct & this normal is a male.. she said he has been feeding the Rosie, so I am hopeful!! This is my Turquoise/Cinnie split Green Cheek male lol he is so jumpy!! This little monkey is my Normal Female! she is a hoot! she dont really know if she should allow for me to scratch her neck! but she thinks its cool to eat raisins & banana chips when she sees me eating them...lol

Hi the Normal Bourke is a Male. The Rosa Bourke would be a hen as males don't tend to feed other males. The tiels are gorgeous! so is the green cheek.

Thats what was told to me Karen as I didnt observe the normal feeding the rosie, I will be more reassured once I see him feeding her.. they so far are doing everything the oposite of what was told to me lol the breeder that was trying to set them up as a pair..told me when I put them in there bigger cage that they are in, they will be really flighty...NOT! they are so calm & relaxed as to allow me to get very close without spooking.. The Tiels are so fun! the male is already courting his wife! its so sweet... udging by the way shes tearing up the cuttlefish it shouldnt be too long before I see some action..
