Hi! Thought I'd start with an intro before I jumped in.
Today my girlfriend suprised me with this little beauty

I was on the old forum, and had a special bird in particular who passed away far too young. He was one in a million to me and could never be replaced.

5 or so years on and I'm hoping to start afresh.

Not got a name yet, I'm assuming male? But I'm rusty, so feel free to correct me and hit me up with any name suggestions

Welcome, what a beautiful little bird.
Who were you on the old forum?
Just wondering, in case we remember you.

We are not Vets, Avian or otherwise. If you have any serious doubts about your budgies' health an appointment with an Avian vet should always be your first point of call.

While it is not the best photo for determining gender, I am inclined to agree with boy, as well. What a pretty little bird!

Hi and Welcome and what a sweet little bird!

I know its your opening post but just wanted to give a word of caution, you might like to change the perches he/she is sitting on for more natural ones as those plastic ones can hurt their feet (and cause health issues if not replaced).

Am looking forward to hearing about your new addition and what the naming will be!

Not forgetting
