Pictures New tiel's gonna be here any minute now!!!

[Garet]

This is just a bummer. I'm glad I have him but it really took the wind right out of me when I saw that he was beaten up.

 

[Nobirby]

Bless you for giving him a caring home. He is a lucky bird.

 

[EkkieLu]

How's he doing now? Has he settled in and relaxed a bit?

 

[CeciliaZ]

I was thinking that he was the bird from the pet store... I missed something - but happy this one is in your care.

He's hiding behind his swing, but seems to have settled down.

The pet store bird was already adopted, sadly. I had only just really discussed buying him two hours before they pushed to sell him asap.

 

[EkkieLu]

Glad to hear that! He's a good boy and deserves a great home like yours!!!!

 

[greys4u]

Glad he went to the Garet Hotel, he'll get the care and love he deserves

 

[Ripshod]

I'm really glad you found him and he found you @Garet. His future looks brighter already.

Uuugh so early! X-x Thankfully, he's okay. Vet said he needed a little extra calcium/healthier chow and might need hand-feeding. Little guy is a bit underweight and it's likely a combination of being sold to them at such a young age and being bullied by their other bird. I do have to keep an eye on his face. If it starts to look swollen or tender, I have a baytril prescription for him.

Awwwwwwwww. Poor baby. You will have him looking good in no time. And he will shine knowing he is safe and loved. He needs a nice strong name.

I was thinking of Gabriel. Still not entirely sure what to call him, but I'm not leaving him nameless.

 

[Garet]

And now that we're home, he's terrified. I had to fish him out from under the TV stand so many times. Poor little one hasn't even learned to fly yet. He hasn't bitten anyone, but he bluffs a lot and does his best to fly away.

you're on it! Good job! You obviously know how to handle this. I'm so glad he now has you to look after him. As for a name, I still vote for Lucky! Describes him perfectly!!!

he'll settle in soon, start making new friends, and feel so much better with the healthy chow you're giving him. You'll have a new BFF in no time!

 

[Birdbabe]

He has you now.

 

[zoo mom]

I like Gabriel. It is a nice strong positive name. Besides Gabriel is an angel.

It's the name I keep coming back to. I think it'll stick.

And I just realized that he's a light pied. The lil upside down heart on his back is too stinking cute!

 

[finchly]

Oh yay! I was in the wrong thread, still waiting.

I'm glad the bird made it to you, the bird whisperer. Too bad the previous owners were so ignorant and let him get hurt.

We also adopted one that is over 20 and probably over 25, and never got a name. So hubby named him Clint, as Clint Eastwood played in the movie the Man With No Name.

Here are some better pictures. He's suuupeer hard to get on camera, I had to rescue him after that.

And he's already pooped on/in his water dish, silly thing.

Poor Clint. I'm glad he finally got himself a name.

 

[Sodapop&Co.]

Aw little Gabriel is so pretty though!!! I'm sure he'll calm down soon; he's gotta realize that he's in a caring, safe home now!!

 

[Zara]

I´m so happy the world brought you and this little one together. I look forward to reading all about him
