Thanks for the reply bro,, I meant by the cereal ,, the powder food for baby birds that you mixed with warm water ,stir n with the syringe you feed them,, n about his age Im not sure if he;s 4 or 5 months old,, he's got all the feather n he stands by himself n his eyes r like mostly black,, n I bought for him a stand not a cage,, n he screams whenever he senses that Im around or if I turn on the lights of the kitchcen,,, I switch of the lights to make him quite n sleep n not to become noisy,, so again the bird is left in the open ,not in a cage n he doesnt seem to fly although hes got all the feather n he doesnt bite n that what made me convinced to buy himm,, n I dont know if hes a male or female,,oops
