I have been around for about a week and thought it was time for me to introduce me and Spike. I have had Spike for about 5 years and got him when he roughly 5 months, the pet store didn't have an "exact" date. And i shouldn't really say "got him" since he picked US out at the pet store. There was a tiel that whistling none stop. I went to pick that one up and of course he was scared and ran away, my mother went to try to pick him up and Spike jumped on her finger instead, and wouldn't get off. We walked around the store for a little while with spike on our shoulder and decided to take him home, and glad we did (He even picked out his own toys and cage). Bellow are two pictures, Sorry for the first being so blury. That is Spike eating corn out of our kettle within the first week. (We stopped him from that habit, after i took the picture). The second picture was taken about 5 mins. ago.
