Hi everyone :)
Just a quick update on Agro and Buzzy's Baby...Charlie!
I am not sure of the gender of Charlie...so...I'll just refer to it as "he"
He was kicked out of the nest about a week ago! But...Agro and Buzzy are still looking after him...teaching him the ropes!
They have taught him how to climb up and down ladders and how to get up on, & down from, the suspension bridge, he is learning to feed himself, and already hops on my hand...walks up my arm, to my shoulder, just to nibble on my ears, for some strange reason :confused:
Here is a couple of photos... Hope they don't come out too blurry, and I hope you like them. 20181013_141607-1-1.jpg 20181012_194548.jpg

You are truly lucky to have just one chick to focus on and bond with. I adore cockatiel chicks. My first hatching was a complete surprise and I actually felt myself swaying while standing and looking into the cage at the naked thing on the bottom of the cage, peeping, waiving his wings and head back and forth, calling for his mom! Gracie Tiel has a baby and she a Chip fed him oatmeal, sugar and milk which they age from my breakfast bowl!!! I called my A/V to make sure the oatmeal wouldn't hurt the baby; the first of many, many calls during the month after they hatched.

Enjoy your miracle baby!!!

Awww....Thankyou Finchley and ShezBug, I don't think It would've gone quite so well without your help.
Yes...Fergus' Mom...I do Absolutely Adore Lil Charlie to the Moon, through the Milky Way, and All the Way back again:fairy2:and...Laurul Feather Cat....I absolutely did the same thing :hehe: the rocking that Charlie exhibited...was almost hypnotic, I felt like a looney, rocking along there with him...to No Music :hilarious:

Oh My Gosh....Thankyou for your lovely comments/praise d_msparkles.
And...might I add... You are the 1st person on the forum to notice that Cheeky, yet Proud, look on Agro's face
!
As you can see...Agro is a Very proud daddy, It is So Cute how they teach lil Charlie to navigate around the cage, to fly around the room, and the All important...Effective Landing Techniques, I am Absolutely Amazed at how wonderful Agro and Buzzy are as parents...I am so very proud of my gorgeous little family :)
