Parakeet Love - Wooing and Fighting

User Question
Hi I have found a bird which i have no Idea what it is, we thought it was a parakeet but after looking at your web site I don't think it is but I will discrbe it to you and maybe you could tell me. It is a pale yellow in colour, wings are yellow too, with a light orangey forehead and is white underneath on partof its chest , it has black eyes and grey tail feathers, I am guessing it is a young bird it is very active and seems to get tired quite quickly after having a spurt of playing and it loves millet sprays. Any ideas you opinion would be much appreciated Thank you

That sounds like a cockatiel but if you bring a picture into your local pet store I'm sure they can tell you exactly what it is. If you keep it I'd really bring it to a vet to make sure it's all checked out and healthy!
