I've only been off here for two days and look what you've done helenmat!! What a beautiful little chap. Can't wait to hear about introductions and I'm sure Eric will perk up when they get together.

He's a handsome little chap. I'm really pleased for you all. It took a while for us to decide on Dean Stockwell's name. We had a short list and changed our minds a few times.

He’s tried a bit of grape today. He’s very inquisitive so I’m taking advantage and letting him try stuff. He’s not scared of the hand at all. I’ve let him step up on my little finger and put my thumb on his back and he didn’t panic at all. I’ve washed my hands so many times today going between him and Eric. I’ll have no skin left. I’ve caught a horrible cold from Alex so I’m not feeling great today but I’ve kept up with the buds. I like to keep you on your toes Shirls x

He’s getting on great. He has no fear and will try anything. He’s had some yellow pepper today. I can’t believe it’s only been 3 days. He is really settled as though he’s been here for weeks. He is definitely moulting though so we were right about his age. I wish I could find out who the breeder is so I could find out a date of birth. I have emailed the pet centre but no reply yet. I will have to ring at the weekend.

Is that a ring on his leg? If so, recognised breeders have codes so you might be able to find out online from budgie society.

But it is not a Budgerigar Society breeder number as they have letters then numbers. I have searched their directory and its not listed. I'm at a bit of a loss how to find out more.

Dunno if you are aware helenmat but the colour on the ring denotes what year he was born (I know its not date specific) but the black ring colour is 2019
