I'm saving up my money for a hand reared Cockatiel.
Just wondering if anyone else on the forum keeps them? If so is it alright if a see a few pics?
Cheers, Mike

Must resist the urge to post lots of photos lol (not to hard to resist seeing I can't seem to resize to fit the forum) but plenty of photos on my FB profile here's the link to the album
