Well at 31 Nerd was getting up there and was likely older as I got him and his brother Ferd in 78 as a matched set, almost certainly wild caught. They were adults and store guessed they were a couple years old. Nerd was the skinny, skittish, bad feathers and color bird, Ferd was the big healthy bird in great feather. Ferd got sick very suddenly a few years in in the afternoon and was gone by 8pm that night. Nerd and I mourned together and bonded and he was my best friend for the rest of his life. He had a wicked loud jungle flock call, never talked, spoke wild Pionus and we understood each other perfectly. None of my Maxis since have made exactly the same calls and noises he made, just similar. I was his world and was allowed to do almost anything to him.
