Pickey is the sweetest little bird, she's a very old cockateil. i've had her since she was a baby too. she is now around 21 years old i also have one more cockatiel, his name is Baby Peep. he's about 2 years old now, i've had him since he was a baby and he talks , he says " hi Baby Peep" |

They are pretty smart . . .especially Zazu . . .he says things like "where's daddy", "what's goin on Zuba Zoo", and whistles Jingle Bells, If I Only Had a Brain, and Three Blind Mice . . .Iago is a bit challenged, he tries to do the same as Zazu, but he's much more shrill and annoying . . . |
Aww this makes me want one!! I didn't know cockatiel talks...I thought only the expensive ones...like the macaw talks...I don't know much about birds (as you can probably tell)

Okay, I really want one now...

Are they a lot of work?? heheh
