Mine too now lol, I wasn't too familiar with them before but now I'm saving up the money to get one of them They're so sweet, I feel bad because so many people avoid them since they allegedly "don't look friendly" according to some people

The female has such a sweet face! Not friendly, blech haha I know they require a more specialized diet than other parrots, lots of fresh fruit I think?

I saw a video of them free flying and that's when they entranced me. I'll try to find that video.

Here it is. It's completely terrifying but incredible all at the same time!

Thats what the woman said, with every feeding to throw in a few pieces of dried or fresh fruit depending on what kind it is

That is incredible! I'd be a nervous wreck the whole time, i can tell they're trained but id still be scared a hawk or eagle would get them

Please research this carefully! I'm heading to bed, but there's quite a lot of diet information in the eclectus alley of the forum... And,

Thank you and I'll definitely do my homework on them since unfortunately it'll probably be a good while before I can afford one
