On Saturday I meet my friend Janet in Beaumont Texas she is the one that rescued the greenwing macaw. I met her there and then took Chico to his new house and Momma here in Houston, she live about 45 minutes away from me.
It was very hard (on Janet) she has fallen in love with Chico and it killed her to give him away (but she knows it is for the best) and I totally understand not only are GWs my all time favorite but this bird has such an awesome personality! Such a sweet and trusting bird when he has not right to be.
He is now at a wonderful house out in the country where the new Momma Holly is hoping Chico will bond with her 1 Blue & gold that is alone she has another pair that are bonded so this one needed a friend. She worked in a rescue in Austin before moving here so she also has Amazon, Molucan cockatoos & 2 Senegal’s so she is a bird person!
Chico has had no problem fitting in and already giving kisses, taking baths and eating like a pig at his new house, so it was a very good day!
PS I think Chico is on the small side for a GW so I am thinking it's a girl, Holly will have her tested when they go to the vet for the wellness check.
this is Janet saying goodbye to Chico
This is me & Janet-we meet on facebook & hit it off she is really nice girl.
Here is Chico at his new house & his new Momma Holly
Pretty bird...and hungry after the long ride
Here are the 2 bonded B&Gs
and here is the B&G that needs a friend
Besides parrots Holly also helps with horse rescue, this is a rescue that she is just fostering while he recovers from abuse & injuries
and here are Hollys horses
so I think we did good, he is in a very good place where he will be loved and well cared for
