He's so pretty! :D I love his spotted head and chest! Just one of those pearl characteristics. :tielpearl:

He shows no physical signs of being overweight, judging by pictures, so you don't have to worry about him being "too" big. If you want to make extra sure though, try and feel for his keel bone, just below the chest. It'll feel like a thin blade, in a way (just not sharp). If you have trouble feeling the little bump, then that means he's "too" big.

I love his giant crest! :cockatielbirdorable:

I believe she meant big as in growing up, not as in chubby.
