These are my budgies, Gary (RIP ='[), Peeko, and Pickles. I'll give a short summary of each of them. =P
Gary - October 5, 2002 - May 26, 2007
Gary was not only my first budgie, but my first pet. She (yes, she) was talkative since day one. What I mean by that is, she sang along to the radio when we were bringing her home. haha. I had her for a great four years, but then sad May 26 came along. I don't know what happened to her, but my best guess is that she had a stroke or just passed away from old age. I'm not exactly sure of her age, but she seemed to be from ages 15-18. No, I didn't get her when she was a baby. Anyway, I'm still not over her death, so don't say anything mean. =[
Peeko - 2 months old
I got Peeko after our big move and because I was lonely without Gary. Peeko didn't get off to the best start, though. He was overwhelmed being so young and moving into an entirely different place. So, we went and got him a buddy, Pickles. Now they're both doing great! So, after a couple weeks of having them, Peeko escaped. My mom told me to let him walk around since he would be flying around the room one day anyway. So after a while, we tried to get him back in the cage, but he didn't want to. After, maybe, a half an hour, we finally got him back. It was a fun day.
Pickles - 2 months old (Just a little older than Peeko though)
Pickles, the bird who helped Peeko out big time. Pickles is a very silly little guy. He's alway teasing Peeko that he can fly (Peeko has clipped wings). He loves to fly in little circles around the cage to get his excercise. Both Peeko and Pickles are still afraid to come out of the cage (exept for Peeko's great escape). Sometimes, if there aren't any good seeds at the top, Pickles will sit inside the food dish, and kick the seeds up like a dog. It makes a huge mess, but it's still adorable. haha.
They're beautiful :) I had a blue one named ocean. she was soooo cute. she passed away at a young age though, we think it was stress-related. she died only a week or two after we moved. she was only 3 or 4 years old, if i remember right. i don't know if she was a baby or not when we got her, but i would think so, we got her at a pet store. who knows. anyway, she was my brothers, and when she died, he never wanted another pet.for his birthday a few years back, though i bought him nacho, a leopard gecko, and he loves him. he still misses ocean though, and wants to have another one someday. Pickles reminds me of Ocean, some. :) They are both very pretty, and I'm sorry to hear about Gary..
