Charlie Cockatiel falls asleep in his bowl!

Baby Charlie Cockatiel couldn't sleep for the first couple of nights we had him, it was the only sign of 'new home stress' we noticed! Poor thing!

EDIT: I've been getting some pretty entertaining comments from people freaking out. Ok, folks, REMEMBER:

1. This was years ago. He was fine and continues to be fine:-)
2. Charlie didn't sleep for the first 3 nights I had him, I slept by the cage to check on him, and he never nodded off. Finally, after he was used to his new surroundings he crashed in his bowl, which was kinda cute (HE WAS NOT ILL!). He was perfectly healthy, just EXHAUSTED understandably!

3. He is not a female. First off, all baby cockatiels have the stripes on the tail and look very female (at least the normal greys!) until a certain age. He was breeder proven, DNA tested, and if you saw/heard him today, you'd know he's male!

Hope this clears it up some. Keep the nasty comments to yourself, K TNX:-)

It looks like a girl cause when the tail is striped it normally means it is a girl unless it is young
