Keiba. :lovehearts:
The breeder came over a few or so hours ago, and he stayed here for well over an hour chatting to me and mum about IRN's and all different things, he's a really lovely man.
Anyway, not sure of the babies sex, but the breeder said he thinks male and usually he's right, so I'm just going to say "him".
Keiba is 8 weeks old, he's SO cuddly and tame, I held onto him for ages and then I put him in his cage (I'm buying another one, so the cage he's in is just for now) to give him some space. He steps up, likes scritches (YAY), adores being cuddled and he's just super friendly. He can't fly yet, but he's starting to and he hasn't cracked any seeds as of yet either - so I'm going to hand-feed him twice a day, in the morning and then before bed!
When the breeder got here, he didn't have him in a cage he just had him in his hands.. I am surprised even though he can't really fly, that he just sat there.
I can't find my camera cord (grrrr) so I had to take photos with my mobile that has crap quality - as soon as I find my camera cord I'll get better photos, this doesn't really show his colors properly.. he's a really really light blue with a white head.
I also forgot to mention.. he's so HEAVY!! :yikes: It's like having 5+ Cockatiels on your hand.
Here's a few photos
