I'm going to be arranging to meet one in the next two weeks. I would like to see if we "connect".
She is a female and "apparently" 14 months old. Her owners are not able to keep her due to.......lack of time, they are moving and birds are not allowed, a new job, not enough time...... blah blah blah.
So far I have only exchanged email contact. I've kept it simple. She wrote that she will not sell her parrot to just "anyone" and wanted to know if I already had parrot experience so I wrote that I have a grey and a pionus parrot. She will telephone me tomorrow and we will talk a bit more and then arrange an appointment to meet if all feels ok over the phone.
I'm just wondering about a few things... Emma will be 21 months old in about 10 days. Would it be incorrect to "assume" that this timneh grey's maturity level is the same as Emma's.
I really don't know much about timnehs except that they have a maroon tail, they tend to mature quicker than CAGs and they "scoot" when they're on the floor and CAG's tend to "waddle". Please give me your feedback to help me think of things I may not have considered.
Thanks in advance,
Here's a link of the ad. It's in french.. but look at the pictures. The ad basically states that she comes with her cage, toys, food and has recently had a vet exam. Very sociable and affectionate and is beginning to speak human.
I appreciate all of you.
