Hi 
all, my name is Sera and I brought my 10 week old Alex home 
about 4 days ago.
His name is Tao (like the beginning of Tower but without the ER on the end).
Tao was about 3 weeks old when I chose him. He is hand raised and very friendly. He is pretty much recall trained already, but I am teaching him in Korean now (bf is Korean).
I'm not sure he's a boy as we didn't get DNA sexing done, but he has a ring around his neck already. He should be too young for this so should I go ahead and DNA him or assume the ring will stay? He wont have even had his first moult yet, so not sure I should assume anything based on his current appearance.
We also have 4 other birds. Kevin and Jesse are male cockatiels. And Elsie and Koujaku are female GCCs. Elsie and Koujaku belong to my daughter and Koujaku came from the same place as Tao. Both came home on the same day and both are lovely, friendly birds.
I'm looking forward to meeting everyone and learning about their birds.
