I'm not a stranger to birds, had a White Front Amazon for 25 years.
He is a CAG a little nervous right now, DNA and vet tested, he is 19, new home different cage the previous owner gave me his old cage it's filthy and will scrub it tomorrow.
Owner told me he likes bananas won't eat pellet and she feeds him Hartz Parrot food. Ugg. He is plucking since she is working 7 days a week.
He has been with me for 3 days, seems to have calmed down, doing the side leg and wing stretches and is preening.
I have given him nutri berries, fresh red and green pepper and celery. He eats all of it. I noticed that he tears the food up with his beak and drops a lot of the food. Is he eating any of it?
He is a very sweet bird, nips a little but I tell him no no. I do hand feed him treats and talk to him all of the time.
I welcome all and any tips!
Will have pics soon!
