My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Baby is a 11-12 year old Sun Conure. He is very shy and does not have a good grip. He will step up but is not fully socialized. Apparently, when he was younger, he did not have any toys to play with in his cage nor was he handled. He now loves to chew wood voraciously and also paper. He gets several folded papers daily on the bottom of his cage to shread. He also likes to chew cereal boxes and cardboard. He will bathe in a bowl of water but does not like to be misted. He is a relatively quiet bird. He does not like other birds. He will tolerate human interaction as long as his cage is in sight. He is on a 50% seed 50% pellet diet and we are working on converting over to the 80% pellet 20% seed diet. Fresh fruits and veggies are offered every day but Baby does not really display an interest in these. I will continue to offer them everyday in the hopes he will get the idea. He is very beautiful and will make a wonderful companion for someone that does not have any other birds as he is aggressive towards other birds. He does have a slight little issue where he will have a seizure if restrained (like in a towel to see the vet or get nails and wings clipped). He did display this while being vetted when he came into the rescue, but he recovered from the seizure quickly and the vet said that it is related to stress and will not affect his health in any way and she also stated she has seen it before so it is not totally uncommon. Baby just needs an understanding, patient and calm home where he can be the center of attention!! fostered by Loretta L of Seminole, FL Adoption Fee $75 or $125 with cage
