Cool bird!

i like the edit

Odd, I'd have named him Kiwi.

He almost looked like a regular parakeet with a little wig and a funky coat.

Man, am I cynical.

I think he's beautiful!

Feather dusters don't live very long... a few months, usually. They are unable to fly and have difficulty moving around, eating and seeing. The mutation causes their bodies to redirect vital nutrition to constant feather growth at the expense of muscle growth.

If the husband had any sense at all, he'd teach it to say its name.

"What's your name?"
'awwk... Whipper!"
"Don't mind if I do!"
*SPANK*
"Ow! You brute! You terrible, terrible man! You... you... ask it its name again!"

^If all else fails, try a wife-beating joke?

I dunno, I kinda liked his wife beating joke. Course, I also like husband beating jokes, as well. This isn't quite a husband beating joke, but I dedicate this to the ladies:

A married man was visiting his mistress when she requested that he shave his beard.

“Oh, James, I like your beard, but I would really love to see your handsome face.”

James replied, “My wife loves this beard, I couldn’t possibly do it, she’d kill me!”

“Oh, please?” the girlfriend asked again, in a sexy little voice.

“Oh, really, I can’t,” he replies. “My wife loves this beard!”

The girlfriend asked once more, he sighs and finally gives in. That night, James crawls into bed with his wife while she’s sleeping.

The wife is awakened, feels his face and replies, “Oh, Michael, you shouldn’t be here, my husband will be home at any moment.”

Heh, calling that a "wife-beating joke" is a stretch. Wife-spanking joke, sure. There's a pretty huge difference.

It's not a huge difference.. More like a 2 and a half foot difference, it's a moderate difference.

Sheesh. Political correctness hits the sift!

A cheerful and consensual slap on the bottom as part of a joke is not even close to spousal abuse, and that's what the context and punchline of that joke implied. It's a whole different - and distasteful - ballgame if the sound effect in the joke was "*PUNCH*".

"Whipper is actually a mutant parakeet".

No shit?

you could potentially have a new breed there.. may want to see if offspring have the same features

Why is UK in the tags? It's new zealand, didn't hear any UK ppl, did i miss something or was it another aussie/new zealand/uk mistake?

Apparently, this bird was the result of Original Sin: http://www.answersingenesis.org/creation/v24/i1/budgie.asp

^This bird and mutants in general apparently deserve to be abandoned at birth etc. because of a fairy tale about knowledge and sex being bad! It's all so simple...
