Hello.
I ran across a lady who is looking to rehome her 19 year old Meyers Parrot. She thinks it is a he but he has never been DNA'd. Her ex husband and his ex wife initially bought him. They divorced and she and him got together in 2006. They divorced this January after 12 years and the husband left the bird with her. She said the bird never liked her. He lunges, hisses, and bites her. She said after the 2nd time that he bit her, she called it quits. She admitted that she is not a bird person and she is absolutely terrified of him. She did say that her 6 year old niece and some young neighborhood boys are able to interact and handle him. She sent me pictures and he is in a toyless cage in a closed in porch. If I were in that situation, I would be bitter too. I also feel that he knows she is not a bird person and may hate her for it. I am going to visit him this weekend. I want to spend some time with him and see if he will "choose" me, as some birds do, or atleast show me that we can work together. I am willing to put in the work for this baby. Do any of you have suggestions or advice? Do's and do nots?
Thank you in advance
