Mayumi or Yumi for short is the first cockatiel I bought last 18th October 2007. She is Lutino Cockatiel and her pretty white color with orange patch on her chick and yellow crest give her simple but cute looks… Actually the day before that ang balak ko talagang bilin is a pair of gold fish or molly to put in my aquarium, then it turns my attention to this bird who is quiet at first then suddenly start to mimic when I go near and look at her… and then I start miss Tony yung falcon ko before…Hindi ko muna sya binili that time and then I look around to other pet shop… But there is no nice fish and tinamad na ako so I went home and open my PC then start to search and look for some idea about cockatiel... Then I found out na hindi naman pala sya gaanong mahirap alagaan and low maintenance pa unlike fishes… Interesting itong bird na ito ‘coz they are like parots and other birds that can be easily tame… So the day after, balik ako sa pet shop and took her home… Normally at first medyo mailap and hindi ko sya mahawakan, but as days past by… unti-unti syang naging maamo and at ease pag nilalapitan ko… But I observed na parang malungkot sya pag nagi-isa…
So After a week, ikot ulit ako sa mga pet shop to look for her partner… Sad to say, wala na and nabili na yung ibang cockatiel… So, my last choice is to check yung pet shop na medyo may kalayuan… Luckily there is three cockatiel, one pair and the other one is alone on his cage… Medyo ayaw babaan yung offer nya sa akin kahit na anong discount and pambobola ang ginawa ko doon sa shop owner… Hindi rin naging effective yung style namin na lalabas ka nang shop and wait ka lang na tawagin ka ulit and ibigay nya sa price na hinihingi mo… Until na nakauwi ako and I saw Yumi again… Buti nalang at binayaran ako ni Irwin… And guess what!? Kung magkano yung price noong bird is yun din ang price Irwin paid me… Parang signus huh! So I go back again to the pet shop and buy Yumi’s partner who I named Makisig…
Makisig or Kisig for short is a male Pied Cockatiel and I guess he was cought wild, unlike Yumi na parang laki na sa breeder… And may band kasi si Yumi which is wala naman si Kisig… Up to now medyo mailap parin si Kisig unlike ni Yumi na nahahawakan ko na and she already know the step up command after two weeks…

One good thing to this pet is you can teach them to mimic your whistle and they can learn fast… Just put a little patience and tender loving care to them and it will give you their attention and entertain you… Lakas din makatanggal ng stress and I admit medyo nalilibang at natutuwa talaga ako sa kanila… Wait ko nalang na lalong maging amo sila and maingay… Miss ko na kasi mga taklesa… Hahahahaha…
Thanks to this sites who helps me a lot and gives me more idea about cockatiel…
