 Hello, my sniffers! Okay, bad angle, really hot. Anyway, you'll never believe what's happening today. Christina is here. Straight up went from going to bird stores to now she's in my house. And guess why? The most exciting thing. She brought a bird for me to see. Are you guys excited? It's her bird. Just so you guys know. Ta-da! Can she come out? Of course she can. Oh my God, I'm dying. This is my first time not seeing a mustache parakeet obviously, since Picasso, but like holding one. Do you wanna come out and I'll just like kiss you and hug you and love you forever? Okay, for those of you new here, thank you so much for being here. We love birds. And for those of you who have been following my Picasso story, this is like a little baby. And Christina's been talking and posting about her on parrot station. So I said, could you please bring her over? Hi! George, what do you think? This is Evee, you guys. Jersey, I want you to see somebody. Look, what do you think? It's not Picasso though. You said it's not Picasso, but it's Picasso's family member. What do you think of that? It's Picasso's sister came with busy youth from out of town. Hi, how long have you had her? Three months now? She's so cute. She likes to talk a lot. She's very talkative. And she likes my earrings. George, don't you wanna come see this up close? Hello. Hi. She complains a lot when my husband touches her while she's on me. She doesn't bite, don't you think? No, I mean, it's more about I'm gonna put your finger in my mouth and then throw it away. That's how Picasso was. Yeah. I got you. Get her little money down. I really want her to learn other people. So this is a very good experience for her. Yeah, she only gets me 24 seven, it's just okay. This is what I realized. And maybe your husband does this because George kinda does this too. Other people in the family, they're like, oh, we got a new bird. I want the bird to like me. This will be the one. But then there's someone in the family good with birds like you or me. And the bird like bonds with us very quickly. And then the other person goes, oh, they like you more. And they stop trying to socialize. They stop putting in the effort and that's the problem. Right? I mean, he's not stopping because every day he'll go up to my most nippy and he will still attempt to touch her. Maybe you should start with the less nippy ones. I actually got her after watching me work all of your Picasso videos. Oh, you came because of Picasso. She was an inspiration. So you have four birds. I do one of the babies, not home yet. Okay, you have four birds. Would you be interested in meeting Nelly? I'm open and interested and yeah. And Monty, here's the thing though, right now they're both like attached to me. But so they need someone like you that knows how to make birds attached to them. They can't really have like a beginner. Do you know what I mean? They could because they're loving but like they need someone that like just knows how to handle birds. That's it really, you know? Oh my God, I thought I was gonna cry when I saw this bird. Churji, don't be jealous. I grew up with the craziest type of bird you could have and that's a cockatoo. You grew up with a cockatoo? Yeah, cause my father, you're a professional. You have a family that loves birds. Due to dad, yes. Me too, due to dad, sort of due to dad. Okay, if my mom hears this, she's gonna be so mad. Dad always loved animals. Us loving animals is because of my dad. 100%, uh-oh, somebody's jealous. Dad surprised me with my first bird and he wouldn't let me get a bird. He said, bird should not be in cages. And I said, but if I have a bird, he won't wait. And he said, we can't have animals where they're in the cage. And then he surprised me with the one once he saw the potential and then the whole family became in love with birds. But the way that story goes, my mom's very mad at, she goes, you know, it's not fair. I'm the one that told him to go get the bird and now he gets all the credit. Hey, Churji. Hi. Hey, Patrick. You're busy, you're busy looking at other birdies. Hi, sweetie. You're just the cutest cockatoo in the world, aren't you? Yes, you are. You know, with Drizzy, I always get the butt. I've grown to accept this. She's got that same Picasso thing that where you could just, like where they wanna just like snuggle. The same snuggle. My first mustache parakeet was not like this. He was cray cray. My Malibu. Oh my God, he sounds like Picasso. She. She. She doesn't. She does not smell like Picasso. She's got a different type of musk. Yeah, she does. She has a musky smell, but it's so, I don't care, I love it. Mix of baby powder. Yes. And then there is like fruit because I give them apples and strawberries and her favorite is pomegranate. She goes crazy for pomegranate. Oh my God. So do my birds. They love pomegranate. They get it all over the walls. Yeah. Who's crazy birds? Parakeet, and you have a con year. So what is. Like the difference between the two? A lot of my viewers are like, which bird should I get? And like, I always recommend con year. I've previously recommended mustache parakeets. I don't think they're the best for beginners, but they can be really good. Like, but. You know, I wouldn't. Okay, mustache parakeets are great birds, but they're shy. So if you're looking for a bird that you're gonna just get in the feathers, they are not open to that at first. No. You really gotta work with them. But they do snitch position. Look. I mean, no, two birds are the same, but this is totally a Picasso look. That's exactly what I did with Picasso all day. All day long. She would be able to sleep, and he'll be like con, just like he'll cozy up into it. Yeah. That's all I needed. You know, I didn't need like, to get all up in the feathers. Like I just wanted like that, that sniff position. Yeah. This position right here is what George is doing now. So this is essentially Picasso and Eevee. Go ahead, Eevee. Just sniff position. Yeah. She goes right into it. Not all birds are the same, but I mean, if you can get your bird to do that, you're definitely in a good place. I definitely recommend conures for our first time bird owners. I know people say cockatiels, but a cockatiel wasn't enough for me. Why? It was so enough for me. I love cockatiels. I had a cockatiel since I was five. I started with a cockatiel and my dad trained it. It could step up and kiss and hug and all that. But as soon as I went to the store and I saw the pineapple conures silver tough, it was over. I paid right there. It was done. She was mine. I understand what you're saying, but mine duly was just like such a personality. Yeah. I just love cockatiels. Yeah, it was a cockatiel. My neck is killing me from doing this. Yeah, but you keep doing it. Okay. Who else wants to come out? Vinnie sees a box right there that he already tried to kill George over today. Go over there. Kelly and Monty before I let them all loose. Hi, you said. Meanwhile, let's see what Vinnie's doing. Vinnie, how quiet are all my birds? Pretty quiet. Are they quiet? Yeah. Like they don't make noises. I think the only noise you would hear all day is maybe Vinnie scratching up his box. Yeah, that's it. Okay. Somebody wants to meet you. Look, he's got his wings up. He has his wings up. Say hi. Will you step up? Hi, baby. I'm not scared of you. You're doing such a good job. I'm not scared of you. You're such a good baby. You're a good baby. You're doing such a good job with him. Hi. Isn't he cute? Hi, baby. You're a good baby. I'm not scared of you. That's exactly what he needs. Hi. Is like someone to get past that. But I can pick him up, turn him upside down, love him, like everything. Hi. He is one of the most handleable birds. Oh, good. That I've ever, both him and Nelly. You want to hold him? You're not scary. Step up. Oh, hi. I think the gender is going to be a screamer too. So we're already going to have another screamer in the house. Yeah. He's screaming right now because he sees Cody and he hasn't really, you know, he hasn't like really been with these other birds. Yeah. So he needs to still like coming out of quarantine. He still needs to learn how to interact with the idea of not being the only one. Yeah. So when he gets around Nelly, he does this too. He's like. And then he like lifts his wings because he's all mad that like he, he'll do fine in another flock, but he doesn't do well with Nelly because Nelly is kind of aggressive. Whereas imagine he's in a flock where the other birds are not super jealous and you can just be included. Check this out. There's a lot of action going on. But like, you know, like when you have him and he's like your bird or like, you know how he's like loves me right now, you can literally do anything. He's the sweetest. You're so sweet. Isn't he cute? Hi, my cute. My only problem with the noise is living in a condo. It's my fear that I'm going to get a letter on the door one day and they're going to say, Hey, you got to get rid of all your birds. Peek-a-boo. Doing a gang standing back into his books. Just like having Picasso in Jersey again. No. He's a kind of bird that like he's quiet if you're around. Like, so if you're home all day and he's also much more chill on you then Nelly, Nelly will want head scratches the whole time. Wow. You do well with birds. Thank you. Okay. So when the camera was off, she asked me if Monty was kind of like how we have all the cages lined up. If Monty was on top of the cage and her other birds were on top of the cage, would he be aggressive or go over and attack? No, but Nelly might. Nelly is a very jealous personality. Here's the thing with Monty. Obviously, I don't have the most amount of information about their previous life, but it seems to me like when you meet Nelly, you'll know she absorbs all the love and it's easy for her to get love because she gives it. So imagine you have two birds and one knows how to get head scratches and love and everything and the other one kind of always pushed aside. Yeah. That's him and she like will kick him out to get love. He doesn't want to know that he's getting any love. So like Monty is the underdog and he's been doing really well up in my room by himself because like he gives all the love alone. So I don't think he has it in him to be the aggressor towards other birds. I think he could fit into a flock, but I don't know if Nelly could. Okay. Because like if Nelly is on your shoulder and so is Evie, Nelly I think would get jealous and be like get out of here because if she does it to him, I think she would do it to another bird. He is just a pushed away bird. I've never seen him go for her. Like he's screaming right now because she's screaming over somewhere else. What do you think of him? By the way guys, this is not a video about her taking the birds, but obviously you know I need to re-home them. So if I know of someone that's really good with birds and she's home all day and she takes really good care of her birds and she works from home. So you could see how well she's adjusting to a bird that everyone else is like oh they just love you. So just like an option I'm presenting her with. Oh my God guys I forgot. This is how I keep my birds like chill. Like I give them these little hideouts and by the way he's not aggressive at all. Here let me show you. This does not make him aggressive. I can come in here and scratch his head and everything. Honestly I will say they're pretty quiet all day. They're a loud one. They hear each other. He's pretty decent like when he is with me. He loves the shower. He loves the shower water. He comes in the shower with me every morning and he like doesn't mind getting a little wet. Yeah. It's cute. Like he's like he wants to try to drink the water. Oh. It's cute. It's like Cody wants a head scratch. It's really good because most birds when they first meet another bird instinctually they'll either attack it or ignore it. So the fact that he's not attacking right away and he's like walking away it's really good to see that. In my house my condo is kind of the queen. She's the queen. She's in charge of everybody. Wee. You're so cute. I can't. Oh my God. Evie's in there talking. She doesn't want to be bothered. She's trying to grumble him when he is over it. She likes to pick it through my ears. Look at Jersey. She's literally sleeping. So here's what I'm thinking. You go in first because maybe she'll say hi now lady or something. Hi. Watch this. Watch how she kisses. Did you hear it? Yeah. Whoops. That's her. You want to dance? Nellie. She's a little aggressive towards like she likes to be the only one but she can copy like any noise. She can talk a lot. That's really good. She's like, you know, a golden bird. Are you just the best? Are you just the bestest bird? Do I get the butt? Why do I always get the butt? This is like, this is like my life is the butt. You are so sweet. Hi. It really, the way to bond with Nellie is to sit down and just like what George is doing with the baby, just that. Yeah. Go with Nellie. You're purring. I can do it good. And she like will accept love from anybody. Let's say all she had was your husband and you weren't around and she like she would accept love from him. I think that's good because he needs a loving bird. Yeah. But if she fell for you. If I'm in the room. Yeah. It's gonna be me. Just okay with me. Nellie. Nellie. Nellie. Nellie. Nellie. Nellie. Nellie. Nellie. Nellie. Nellie. You're silly baby. You're a silly baby. I did it again. I did it again. I did it again. She's funny too. She's like a funny bird. Like when I go to put her back, she'll go oh. And like if when I pull her out she'll go hi Nellie. And then when I get her out get her out out, she goes, Hi, Nellie! Or she'll go, Nellie! And then if sometimes I'll say something, she'll go, no. I think you love birds the way I love them. Like, you just have to, you grab them the way, like, my family grabs them. You know what I mean? Who's waiting for me out here? Oh my baby, I heard you calling me. Let's have your husband come over and meet them. CFP approved. Ah, tasty. Is it good, baby? You like that? There you go. Yummy. Like the apple? She's enjoying getting her own little weird way. There, now you have an apple pile. You made yourself a little pile of apple. I'm so jealous of you, you're one of us to ask for a date. I mean, I don't want to cause trouble. I'm the worst, I will encourage it. I will encourage it and encourage it. I would dream of having a baby mustache. No, like I want Picasso, but I, like, it's like if I can't have Picasso, I need to have a baby mustache. But I fell in love for you, will you get it? Possibly. But I want a male. Oh, we gotta do this, find that little orange peak, and you're good to go. I want to be Picasso. Oh, Picasso is in love with my life. What's the difference for male and female? Why are you saying you want male more than female? Because Picasso is a male. You want a hug? I want to have like, I don't know. There's no good reason, except like all of my mustache parakeets have been males. Oh, I thought the first one was female. Male. Interesting, okay. So I'm no good reason. It's just the difference for you. I also just like, I don't know, like cute orange peak. I just want, I don't know. It's just like how I wanted my African grade to have a white foot. And it doesn't. You don't love him any less? No, I don't. I mean, if a female came to me, I'd probably, I think if I was, because you know I don't really buy birds, they're all rescues. If I was to go out and get the bird I wanted, it'd have to be the bird I wanted. Yeah. I'm sort of the same when it comes to animals like for the female over the male. I don't know if it's a hormonal thing. I don't know if it's it. I don't make a mess. Female birds that pluck, it's harder to get them to stop. I haven't had any problems with plucking. I just feel like if you give them the time, the attention, the love and care and good food. You don't really have the type of birds that pluck though. If you had a cockatoo, right? Our lesser self-aggressive cockatoo tie was a plucker when we got him. And he's beautiful now. And he's beautiful now. By the way, no more plucking. Jersey did not get fixed. And you see, she has lots of love. She has lots of affection. Nice. Nice. Oh my God, what's happening here? Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss. Be nice. Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss talking. That's her. Hey guys. Okay, look. That's the bird's bedtime. Jersey's eating. Are you ready for bed, Leo? Are you ready for bed? You've been bonding with who? Nelly? Not Nelly. We have Monty over here. Monty's the cutest. Vinny's still in his box. Cody has been in trouble for biting Johnny because Johnny went to the kitchen sink and nobody's allowed in the kitchen sink. Did I get a cover on the bird? We have Rocky watching this TV. And then, George is still obsessed with Evie. There's George and Evie. Ah. So, we're all going to eat now. Yes. Okay guys, so here's the update on what this video's about. Me, obviously, hanging out with a mustache, parakeet, Evie, which George actually hung out with the whole entire time. Christina meeting my birds and possibly considering Nelly and Monty. How do you feel so far? I want Monty and Nelly. But definitely one of them? Definitely one of them. For those of you who haven't seen my videos in a while, the conclusion is that Monty and Nelly have got to be separated. I think I'll have to go into another video and explain why. But it's definitely true. I know you hear them calling each other, but if they even go near each other, they lose their minds. It's not a joke. They're not each mixing a toenail for no reason. They both have damage on their eyes. This is all from before I got them. They're not a bonded pair of birds. They're more like brother and sister fighting for love and they're never going to get it so they want to kill each other. If you guys want a video on that, let me know. Anyway, that's the story. I love you guys so, so much. What's it like watching me on YouTube and then being in the house? It's a lot of fun. Is it fun? Ooh, Nelly. My parents akin it to being in a zoo and I feel like that's the best type of experience you can get is being in a zoo with a bunch of animals and getting love from everybody. I think so too. I love you guys. Bye. Guys, Christina already went home but I want to tell you something kind of crazy. So she told me she got a mustache parakeet because she watched my videos. Obviously I didn't, we didn't know each other. She just watched me on YouTube and so she got this mustache parakeet she drove all the way to San Diego to get him. I keep saying him because of Picasso. So she drove all the way to San Diego to get her and then she said when she picked up her bird she said to herself one day Marlene is gonna meet this bird and it's kind of funny like cause I did but it's also kind of funny that like even though I've seen other mustache parakeets in the bird stores since I lost Picasso I haven't really gotten to hold a mustache parakeet. It's just kind of funny that like how full circle things come and she eventually brought me Evie to hug and hold after I lost Picasso. So if I didn't make the videos I make there wouldn't be a person out there that got the bird that I love and then I might not have gotten this chance to hold a mustache parakeet again that put herself in sniff position exactly like Picasso. So she got the bird because of me then brought me the bird. So like I caused my own self in the future to be able to hold the exact bird that I needed to hold at that moment. Do you guys understand where I'm going with this? Let's all.
