I'd be careful of that because she'll also find the original thread about Maya and her former owners which might not be viewed as friendly.

I'd say this sounds suspiciously like fate to me. If you can swing it responsibly, I'd go get her.

OMG! You must get her!! Perhaps they'll allow you to do a payment plan or something.

I notice that her first owner was asking for $500. It seems like the second owner had her a very short time, but asking for $1000. Is this because of the vet bill or something?
She was originally $500 alone and $1000 with her cage, and they probably got both so they want back what they paid.

Offer $500 for her and tell her you already have a cage.
Yup... that's what I would do. Probably easier to sell them individually since many people don't have 1,000.00 to spend. Used cages aren't worth that much money unless they are really nice and big!

The original owner is still a member right?
She's only posted 4 times, that said she was last seen looking on this thread today! o_O This is such weird situation!! I feel bad for Maya. I hope she finds the forever home she deserves. Good luck @hrafn

So sad that Maya is going to be re-homed again. Too bad the previous owner decided not to sell to you. Maybe you can still get her somehow.

I hope the previous owner isn't playing games with you listing her differently!

Didn't she have kids too? And a similar situation?

Oh boy, I really hope someone isn't that petty to do something like that

Well, it is sad. Sad that she is getting bounced around which is terribly confusing for her to understand. New people, new environment, new sounds are all enough for any parrot to show aggression when they are over loaded with so much change. Two days... not a fair chance to adjust to children but if the original owner didn't have kids then I imagine having little people stand and stare at her could have caused her to show aggression ... it's a natural defense mechanism. No matter what ... we just all want this bird to land where she can live peacefully and happily.

I only say this seeing she's a Women and the kids but thinking she was browsing this thread. Makes you wonder.
Well, she posted on this thread a while back so she would get updates like any of us do.

And at this point, it should all be water under the bridge as far as what previously happened. It's what is best for Maya ... bottom line.

New person not even giving Maya a chance. 2 days is nothing.

Nope, Lisa gave her back to her old owners because "things didn't go well with me".
