A lighter shade of gray

Awii and Klee are getting along beautifully. Klee is much braver than Awii was when I first brought him home, but she doesn't eat much, just like Awii. I guess it's normal since she's under stress and what not, but it doesn't make me happy so I hold her by the throat and pour the food in. The guy at the pet store told me she could fly, so be careful, but I see no evidence of that. So far she just jumps off of high things and the best she can hope for is a soft crash if she flaps her wings had enough.

I thought she was amazingly cute... did you see those photos?!?! But apparently no one else does. The first thing my mom said was "Is she going to be gray forever?" And Tomoe said "Why did you get the gray one?" Well, I got the gray one because Awii is white. No use having two identical birds. I also got the gray one because she is probably a she. She was the only one to come to the door of the cage when I held out my hand, and oh yeah... gray ones cost 10,000 yen less than white ones.
