He will bite, not always, but he gets jealous/or thinks its funny as he acts like he is sorry afterwards, he gets a bit jealous if you talk to the to the other bird. Was abused as we found inside abandoned house in a dark closet with a 5 gallon bucket of water and empty hot dog packages!!!! He has needed a lot of vet stuff and intense diet correction. He talks a little. Says cracker, good girl, and other stuff but not much. I have even heard him sing happy birthday and "in the jungle" so someone loved him at an early point I think. He needs a large cage, and only experienced bird handlers need apply. You can hand feed him but He is a "Dont stick your finger in the cage kinda bird, but maybe you can change that and change his life. Large cage required. Adult, age unknown but guessed between 20-25. He loves to play with bells and balls.
Adopt with $800+ donation to the rescue Bubbaboy is a Severe McCaw and we will check in on him wherever he goes for the next 20+years........
