Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello! My name is Chico, but my Foster Mom says that maybe I could be a Chica? I will not say – it’s my secret! They do not know my age, and I will not tell them that, either! You will just have to guess! I can say “hello”, and that gets me a treat. I mostly talk to myself, but mom says that is mumbling and doesn’t count for a treat. I am not shy, I make lots of noise when I want attention – I just keep my words to myself. I am very curious about all things and I love to come out of my cage to explore. I used to not like hands, but now I step up and like to sit on mom’s hand while I eat my treats. I love fresh vegetables and almonds in the shell. I also eat Harrison’s and Feed Your Flock pellets as well as chop, other fresh vegetables, and healthy nuts. Sometimes I will eat bananas, or apples, or mango. I like to ‘play for nuts’ where we use a clicker and a touch stick and learn new ways to speak bird to humans. I am learning new things all the time, like turning in a circle. Mom calls those tricks, I call them opportunities to play and get a treat! I have not been with humans in several years, but they are not so bad, at least, after I have time to wake up. I am willing to learn new things, and want to explore, but I need someone to love me and be patient with me. I am very, very smart, and I will not disappoint you, if you give me a chance. However, I don’t like rapid movement, so I am not ready for a home with children. I still need someone with parrot experience, and time to spend with me. Please come and meet me very soon, I hope to become part of your family forever! If you would like to purchase me a welcome to Florida Parrot Rescue gift, you can see my wish list on amazon at: http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/271QHXD7609UL/ref=cm_wl_rlist_go_o? All gifts are very appreciated!!
