A friend asked for my help with a 38 YO African grey in PA in need of a soft landing through no fault of his own. He was the husband’s bird; sadly, he recently passed. Rocky is a man’s bird, apparently, and was hand tame for him. He talks and sings. As you can see he is a plucker. He will come with his cage, and the owner is willing to transport, not ship.

I will vet potential adopters and provide the owner’s number for a suitable candidate.

I hope he finds a good home. He looks like our plucked Pepper who is also a daddy's girl and a rescue. Soft landings Rocky.

Soft landing! It's been 2 weeks now. He's on Harrison's high pot coarse now, loves sweet potato and almond butter. He's foraging for pine nuts and sunflower seeds. He loves bird kabobs and mist baths. I'm sprouting bird mix by sproutpeople and it will be ready in 2 days. He's a little OCD because he wants the bottom of his cage clean of all toy parts that he puts the parts through the grates. He's afraid of vacuums and toweling. He whistles, laughs, blows his nose, and sounds like a soda can opening. He says hi, hello, hi rock, you be good girl, and night night rock. I've started target training him and making sure his smart brain has a challenge everyday. I understand how much he must miss his person and I'm going slow. He's an amazing character.
