My boyo isā¦ well, heās the epitome of the Duality of Birb. One moment, heāll be loving some scritches, and the next heāll be very angry with me for scratching his ear instead of his jaw.
As you can see, he is one AMGERY CHIMKEM.
Ricochet is fairly easygoing, very easy to handle, practically bomb-proof (things donāt really faze him), not super picky food-wise (this can fluctuate though), super cheeky, very clever, and has a history of harsh biting.
Rico knows what he wants and what he likes, and if he doesnāt get his way, he will try everything in his power to get it. He isnāt too demanding of attention, but he will certainly let anyone know that he wants it, and he wants it at that exact moment. And if you donāt give him what he wants, he SCREAMS at the top of his airsacs and flies over.
He is very refined in his tastes, liking what he likes and ignoring what he doesnāt. He has a taste for sweet and salty foods, enjoying the fattiest of foods he can find or steal, he prefers his territory to be nice and warm, and he enjoys the comfiest of perches. His taste in toys is very much destruction-oriented, and he LOVES to chew and rip things apart with the scissors he has on his face. He doesnāt like plastic, metal, or anything that isnāt wood or paper-based.
He doesnāt like to follow the rules. He is a being of resistance, and REFUSES to go with the flow of existence. Physics tells him āhey, you canāt do that.ā He will say āwatch me, b****.ā And defy it. Tell him to eat his food and leave you alone? āLol, watch this.ā And he will become a very determined flighter jet.
He is a food thief. If you are eating, he will attempt to steal it. ESPECIALLY if it is a potato chip.
He is quite the sweetheart, and he enjoys him some scritches!
He will bow his head and demand scritches. If he isnāt given what he wants, heāll give ya the cold wing. But for the most part, he just begs for scritches which is ADORABLE!!
But donāt let his sweetness and his charming serenades fool you. He has a nasty side.
Yeah, he latched onto my lip and wouldnāt let go. I had to shake him off of my lip. 0/10, would not recommend.
Heās a good birb, but god do his bites HURT!
Anyway, thatās Rico for ya.

He is pretty fun! Very smart, very easy to work with and train, highly social, very people-oriented, a good singer, very forgiving, everything you want in a bird!This make me laugh, Rico sounds like a fun bird, except latching into your face
Yeah, he does it at least once a year. Heās only two, but man, he has a thirst for blood. That bite scarred! And now itās something Iāll remember as long as that scar is there. But hey, itās a funny story!

Poppy (cinnamon cockatiel)
Mavis (pearl cockatiel)
Keefe (albino cockatiel)
Overall Poppy is a very chill bird, which I'm grateful for. She adores shredding paper and likes her bell too. She gets nervous if you try to pick her up while she's in her cage once she's out, she'll happily ride around on your shoulder...for about three seconds. Then she'll climb onto your head. She's fairly quiet, except when you start playing Taylor Swift (she takes after her mom). Some other things she likes include earrings, millet, and baths. If she had a human alter ego it would probably be Hermione Granger from Harry Potter.

I currently have three cockatiels. Moon and Chara are the new birbs, bought over Kijiji. Their owners wanted someone with bird experience to adopt them and apparently I was the right person! Moon takes a while to warm up to you. Chara is a little more relaxed.
Then there's my 22 year old fart, Redshift, who has stolen Chara as a mate from Moon. Oh the love triangle that formed! LOL! Redshift is my retired breeder. His mate died about 2-3 years ago and I'm actually surprised he adopted Chara as his new GF.
