My moms bird is making a break for it this morning

My mom has a cockatiel that usually sits ON TOP of its cage in her office/computer room.

It usually just stands there and about 25% of the time annoys the hell out of all of us chirping and screaching loudly.

Well, this morning I see he has made his way to the hallway outside of the computer room.

It looks like he’s making a break for it.

I actually kind of hope he makes to the front door, waits for someone to open it, and escapes.

I wish him Godspeed. Noisy little bugger.

He has a bad wing though and probably would not survive long walking outside, so I guess we have to keep him.

Yeah, he looks cute and all but has the personality of Vlad the impaler. If you get close to him or say hi or anything, he rears bach his head, opens his beak in preparation to bite you and hisses.

You should feed that bird a fish

Not sure if he would eat fish or not. We just feed him bird seed mix. Like sunflower seeds and stuff.

I think his feisty attitude makes him cuter!

I think my mom calls this one “Tweety”. She has had several. But we usually just call him “that damn bird”. As in, “can someone go shut that damn bird up?” lol. He particularly drives my autistic niece crazy if she she hears him. She usually keeps out living room door shut when she is here.

We had one when I was a kid called “Beethoven”. That one bit the heck out of my finger when I tried to get him to sit on it. Put a huge gouge into it. If you could get close enough to touch his tummy he would step onto your finger. I think this is the case with many. If they dont bite you first.

I use to have a cockatiel. They are very good pets. They are very cute and funny. But it is hard to keep them content. For example, dogs are more content. That is why they chirp to loud and too often.

My aunt had a cockatiel for many years. Mean old buzzard too. I didn’t care for it. Guess I wouldn’t be too happy either if a stranger shoved their index finger in my face.
