It's ok- I like having fun with your name too- Tootitootitoots :) hehe Fun names rock.
I definitely want to see the picture!
I have two- male and female (I would LOVE babies!) The girl is "Yella" and the boy is "Blue" I know I know, not very original, but I was trying to have names that they could say easily. Blue is starting to get the hang of the wolf whistle- it's so cute. Any tips on teaching them to talk?
I'm so excited I have a bird-lover friend now!! I'll take pictures tonight and post them so you can see :)
My cats are still amazed by the birds. I have the cage above my desk. My little girl kitty (Trot) lays spread eagle on the desk chair and stares up at them. Wain, my big fat black cat (boy), meows at them, like he's either trying to communicate with them or he's saying "What the heck are you doing here??"
I hope my cats learn. I haven't let the birds fly free yet- any tips on making one room bird safe? My plan is to get them use to maybe the bathroom- where I can shut the door and keep the cats out- and the bathroom is nice abnd warm....
Yeah Toots- we can share our corny bird-love together- you made my day :D

> I have so much fun with your name I hope you don't mind....I have a beautiful boy parakeet named Skyler and he is an absolute joy! He talks and has quite an extensive vocabulary. He was hand fed and I have had him since he was 5 weeks old. He is now little over 2 years old! He says things like: "Mommy kiss the bird" "Don't bite your mommy's nose" "Don't eat the bird" "What are you doing?" "Mommy birdy boy" "Love you" "Doody doody doody" "You smell like a bird" or sometimes "you smell like your mommy's bird" He also does the wolf whistle and the come here whistle. I also have 2 cats and they behave themselves when I have him out..I think they are confused because to them "It looks like a bird, flies like a bird, smells like a bird..but damn it talks! Must not be a bird...."
> I have a picture of him looking at himself in a mirror if you would like to see him...
