I have a little green friend that has been with me in quarantine since November 25th.. I saw him on gumtree advertised as "free to a good home.." His name is Dinku and he is 18 months old. His partner died around 18th November from unknown causes. His people will be moving abroad due to work, so they wanted to find him a home that had some other budgie friends for him to play with.

I look forward with great pleasure to hearing more of Dinku!

I'm usually on my phone, which doesn't show signatures and if I'm on the laptop it is almost always only to post pics and videos. Today, I've been on the laptop more often (but I still didn't notice )

TBH. I thought the reason for people not noticing is that I have 10 budgies and people might be unsure of their names

With a thread title like that, you know we're going to look! Welcome little cutie! Now you know - we're all about the pictures and stories, not the signatures!
When is group intro day? Looking forward to hearing more about him.

I'm the same as loz, I usually view the forum from my phone. A warm welcome to the forum Dinku, you don't know it yet, but you have so much fun ahead of you. Well done to you Marianne, another little one you've given a forever home to.

Apparently Dinku means small or cute. tweetiepiesmom intro day will be 23rd December, that'll be 4 weeks from the time he got here. jellybean I felt very sad after Lyra and Bertie passed, so I was kind of half looking for a new friend.

You do! It's Max's cage, I have had it in storage, since Max moved in with the boys. I was offered Dinku's cage, but it would have been really hard to get in an uber!! So I took some of his favourite things instead. Do I recognise that cage?
