My name is Antonia, and I live in Perth, Australia.
Firstly and most importantly, HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Now, a little about me, I am a big lover of birdies. Particularly Indian Ringnecks and Cockatiels, but I'd love to one day have a huge aviary with all types of birds, even duckies, finches, and quail, and the list can go on....

I have only recently fallen in love with IRNs after stumbling upon a particular character on YouTube. The most gorgeous and precious funny little thing going "Weee!" oh it drives me crazy! *ahem*.
I've just bought my first breeding pair which I will get in two weeks and hope they will produce some ugly-gorgeous babies for me.
I'm not a first time bird owner, I have owned two cockatiels in the past, though I'm not fully experienced either as I have only done a little bit of hand feeding.
The main reason for joining this forum is so that I can get an idea of how some owners like to hand-raise, and if they can offer some tips, tricks and advice. I've posted some questions about this on another thread in this forum, but I wasn't sure if I should put it on the introductory to myself. I'm not good with forums, eep.
Nice to meet you all
