Well on Monday our class got a teil as a class pet. This weekend i got to take her home. She gorgeous. Her names SKittles and she 9 wks today. She bites a bit but will step up and sit on your shoulder. To stop he biting the class has to dip there fingers in salt water so if she buts it tastes yucky.Picts soon guys lol
She is VERY cute!!!

I thought classroom pets were a thing of the past. I haven't had one since i was in kindergarten (and that was a budgie). I hope Skittles settles into classroom life well.

I wish my kids class had a bird as a class pet, Instead nooo her class got a pet rat - and i told her there is absoutly NO way she was bringing that nasty thing in my house
she was like mom but its a pet rat not one from the streets

I told her it didnt matter She was NOT bringing it home no ifs an's or but's about it!!

Just so you know, Rats are very smart and "pet rats" are very clean. I used to breed them and train them as well. They could ring a bell and they could pick the thimble with the treat under it, when taught to do so. Just a heads up becouse people hate rats so much...be happy.

I agree Poppabill, I love rats, they are so intelligent. Meanwhile back at the classroom pet..........dipping your finger in salt water, that will stop her biting, is that right? Sounds good, but won't the salt water upset her stomach, is that why she's got runny poos?

no its just the diet change. also salt is natraul in australia( teils original home) picts are vert frustrating!!!! Not uplaodin!!!

I hope you can get the pics up soon!
My first period science teacher has a class pet and her name is Speckles! She is such a pretty little tiel!
My science teacher is awesome she even offered to let me bring in the baby cockatiel I would be getting and she said I could come handfeed it during school!
Speckle and the baby both came from the same breeder........

Hope Skittles settles in ok. The diet change and eviroment change can trigger the diareah. Hopefully she'll get use to how things are and it'll stop. Just keep an eye on her.
PS> How are you loading the pics? Photobucket?

 

[xxxSpikexxx]

Hope the pics will load for you. I was just thinking that all that salt can't be good for her. Even if it is natural, do wild tiels eat salt?
