He was being fostered by a friend who got him from a friend of hers who lives in a loft apartment. She wanted a bird and decided a Pionus would be good because they are quiet and she bought him from someone selling him on Craigslist. Well Stormy can have his loud moments so my friend was fostering him, she has 2 cockatoos, 2 greys, an eclectus and does some in home bird sitting but she really doesnt have room for another permanent addition. Several months before Adam passed she had asked me if I could take another Pi but at the time I had no room at all. After Adam passed it seemed empty here and I had his cage so told her I could take him. Chante has been really missing Adam, they were best friends and Nick ignores Chante so I hope over time they can become friends
