My story

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

Boris is extremely affectionate, but only with one person, and he quickly becomes overly attached. He may become aggressive to people he isn't attached to, and is prone to screaming/attention seeking behavior if he is not physically on his person. Ideally he will be in a home where the new caretaker can help him overcome his extreme attachment issues. He has been very receptive to training -- such as stationing -- and being around other birds has also helped him observe normal human-bird interaction. I don't think he will be a difficult bird, just needs someone who has the time and willingness to work with him. Doesn't necessarily need to be in a one-person home, but the household should understand that he will likely only bond with one person. He seems interested in other birds and likes being around them but hasn't shown signs that he needs to be around other birds. Will need to transition to a pellet diet too. Overall he is a precious doll and will make someone who is looking for a companion bird very happy
