Hi every one. New person alert 
My name is Janice and today I am the new owner of a cinnamon yellow faced grey young male budgie (cannot decide on a name yet). I've had budgies over 30 years and also bred and exhibited them as well as having pets. Our last pet budgie died some years ago, who was silly tame and spoke many words. I decided it was time to have another bird in the family. In the past I was Secretary of the North Essex budgerigar Society, where several big names in the budgie world were members and it was a privilege to have spent time learning from real experts. Even though I only had a 6 x 4 shed in the garden with flight and 9 indoor breeding cages, I exhibited at the NEC alongside Geoff Capes. Sadly an unexpected house move up North meant the loss of my aviary and I an unable to build another one where I live currently due to the the position of the neighbours houses.
A search for a local breeder of BS rung birds had some well handled youngsters, so we are now 5 hours into the ownership of a new member of the family. Although trying to decide on a lovely name, is proving to be quite a challenge! His face doesn't look very yellow in the photograph, that because I have a blue cover over the top of the cage and I think my camera struggled with the lighting.

If I take a guess that you have a Hagen cage, would I be wrong?
and also spent a while trying to find a way out of the clear plastic section of the base of the Vision cage lol
