Yes, 4 budgies I live in Denver, CO My name is Dave	Frodo's doing pretty good, He knows how to step-up but would rather perch on my shoulder so we're working on that. But at least he's learned to mostly not bite now. They sure are strong willed so I can imagine how it's going to take time and patience with a pair that's bonded and had multiple owners before you. We actually found him at a Petco. We went in on black friday to pick up some bedding for the guinea pigs and when we checked out we took a look at the adoption table and they told us an older lady had dropped off 2 male parrotlets because they were too much for her. The more aggressive one had been adopted but the one who'd been picked on was left. I came home and looked up some info on parrotlets, one site I found was this forum, then went back to adopt him. Down the road a bit, I might consider breeding if I'm sure I can care for them properly. The hardest part will be giving them up to new homes. I hardly ever get out of the city and we've thought about moving down to the Springs but it's just not been an option for us yet.
