Hey everyone, I'm Fossil, and I decided to join to ask all my questions and heart attacks over birds. When I was little I enjoyed dinosaurs, then I fell in love with birds. I've been in love ever since.

Currently I only own a male white-face cockatiel, Sweedie, who's band says 98, which I presume means he's almost 12. I've had him since I was 10, and he could barely perch. Until a year ago, we thought he was a female due to his lack of color.

I myself draw, and when I'm not at school (and hopefully a job soon) I spend hours with Sweedie, usually sitting in a cardboard box turned nest beside me and shredding paper sacrifices.

Welcome Fossil. The closest decendant alive to the fossils is the mousebird.

And Sweedie is still a spring chicken at 12.

Thank you everyone! Yes, he's a cutie, and I'm sure he knows it too. He'll wolf whistle a lot. He means the world to me so he gets tons of love and attention, and I'm recently becoming more observational on his health (thus I found this place!).

Yeup, I did. I used to own a budgie, he lived a good 5 years despite being shy. He opened up to me though, but would never stay put. And they're such seed junkies.
