Other comments: I have not had the best start in life. I was found abandoned in a home in 2017. It is presumed I had been there for weeks or even years. I came to EBR in June of 2017 and started my new life.

It is presumed I am a female and between age 20-25. I don’t talk but can be noisy so apartment living is not for me. I love anything wood so need lots of toys to destroy and play with. Keeping me and my beak occupied is so important.

I like attention from everyone but like most birds I will pick a human in the household that I favor. Most of the time it is the male human. I am scared of change and am a creature of habit. I like to stay in the room I live in and if you take me somewhere else I get very anxious and run back to my cage. Slowly socializing and exposing me to new sights, sounds and experiences is encouraged. I am not a bitter and am very easy to handle. I just want to be loved.

I am a sweet loving bird who needs someone to give me love in return.
