As some of you know, I discovered a Blue Crown Conure on craigslist this month and my husband has agreed to go see him!
Well, I have had the worst time getting emails back from the current owner. I emailed her 2 days ago and she finally got back to me last night about a meeting time. So it's official! We go see him on Tuesday at 7pm!
I asked her a lot of questions in my email. I actually have a list of questions I have asked all the current owners of my rehomes to answer. I find it helpful and it let's me get to know the bird better if I decide to bring them home. So here is what I've found out about this little guy.
His name with the previous owners was Sid but she has been calling him Blue. I was thinking about Sidney for a name before I knew his name was Sid, so this may be meant to be!
She has had him only a month. She "rescues" birds who are no longer wanted or in bad situations. Works with them and finds them better homes. She believes his previous owners have not done much with him. Another case of social neglect. My macs have been there, done that! He is timid but is not a "biter". She has no idea when the last time was he went to the vet. He is not "sexed" a male. He's a bit skiddish but coming around for her. He loves hanging out on her shoulder out in the garden. So he loves being outside.
So what is your guys opinion about this little guy?
I know he is not a Caique Terri, and I know you really wanted to see my adopt a Caique, but he does sound like a nice little guy, doesn't he?
Here is his picture again, just because I think he is so cute!
