About Luke and Perry

Update on the boys:  These boys love music!  Perry is the soloist and serenades, Luke, who is his captive audience.  They enjoy the Beatles or Eagles for their daytime listening and Baby Mozart lullabies to wind down before bedtime : >D  They are so fun to hear and watch!  They are good flyers, but are content to sit on top of their cage most of the day. We are continuing to work with them, but stepping up is still not their first choice.  When we can get them to step up, they will bow their heads and let us preen them, but then fly back to their cage whenever they've had enough.  Because being handled is such a new thing for them, I'm hopeful that they'll build trust and comfort with the right person/people in a forever home.   

Luke and Perry are 5 year old male cockatiels. Luke is the bigger boy and Perry is slimmer. In their previous home they shared a cage with 1 other male cockatiel and a female cockatiel. The boys are bonded and will be adopted out together. 
 
Luke is more social than Perry and is perching on the hand in the photos. Luke is more comfortable being held.  Both will step up if they’re not thinking about it too hard, but neither does it consistently yet.  Both will also take sunflower seeds from our hand.   They’re eating pellets, but the pellets have to be crushed up and added to the seed mix to get them to eat. 
 
 Perry sings the most beautiful songs when he hears the birds outside, and Luke just sits and listens.  The boys  are clearly bonded and sleep very close together, but get into small arguments too, just like true brothers. : >D
 
Luke and Perry are being fostered in Howell, NJ
