Description
(( Just adopted this character from ~theballoonprincess (see the original version here: [link] ). She was such a cute character, I really couldn't resist!! Last night I started playing around with her design. There are a few things I'm still not sure if I want to keep or not (like her outfit and her feet, etc.), but I do like this idea that when she's happy/sleepy her feathers get puffy and give her a fuller appearance. I loved when my cockatiel used to do that~ ))Related content

A cockatiel character? I've had a few of those birds as a child. : D
They never liked me.

(( And I remember my mom's ex-boyfriend had a green conure when I was younger. dear god did i ever despise that thing. It would scream at you and bite at you if you even looked at him funny.
Aww and that makes me remember my first cockatiel ever~ Tilly! We got her because her original owner had passed away. She was a sweet, sweet cockatiel, haha. She'd give you kisses and everything.
aaaahhhhh memories
sorry for babbling
Also, I see your other comment now about her colors! I didn't even think about that! Thank you for reminding me! I might mess around with her color scheme a bit~ ))

It's cool, I like memories. In fact, I have a few right now. : P
My first cockatiel had the creative name "Mr. Birdy." Funnily enough, he was a lutino cockatiel, so lately we've been debating his gender, though we can never confirm because he died when I was a toddler. A few years after him, we got two cockatiels named Jack and Jill, who were mates. Jack was born with messed-up toes, and his wings were clipped. But whenever we took him out, instead of flying, he'd run a lot. He was pretty fast, too. He didn't mind people until I pulled out a tail feather when I was a toddler. From that day on he didn't trust us. Jill from the start didn't trust us, either.
Some more years later we got two more named Pogi and Pecoi (those are Filipino words). We have a feeling that Pogi has a stutter, since he keeps repeating the same notes over and over. He's also a attention hog, and if there's anything louder than him, he'll try to outdo it. Pecoi was far more aloof, and like Jack and Jill, wasn't opened to trust us.
Jack, Jill, and Pogee were the normal kind, while Pecoi was a lutino (we thought that she was a guy, until she started to lay eggs in the later part of her life). Jill and Pecoi both died a couple years ago, though Jill left behind a baby we named Lachesis (my brother's named her). Jack and Pogee are still around, too.

I just realized that this isn't quite correct, as male cockatiels are the ones with the yellow heads and orange cheeks, while the females are gray-headed and have paler cheeks.

I'm sorry to ask but.. Do you regret having them?

No way, they were great. I was really young at the time we had them, so naturally, I wasn't good with them.
