This is my bird.

Lifer
...and have absolutely no idea what species she is. I've googled a few times and tried to match pictures and stuff, but I can never get an exact pic. I thought I'd give you guys a shot.

bird

She is a rescued animal and had almost no feathers when I got her about 6-7 years ago. I have no idea of her age or whatever either, so if anyone can tell let me know.

And how should I prepare her for dinner? :wine: 😀

Cool bird. How'd you get it?

LOLOL, awesome find! Thanks.

I got all my animals from my brother who is a vetenarians assistant for about 10 years now. I had gotten this parrot, and both my dogs from him. They were all "throwaways" that no one wanted.

Thanks for the link. :cookie:

aww, he's (or she's) cute 🙂

did you teach him/her anything like saying words?

does it bite you ?

It doesnt talk, but it mimmicks whistles and other sounds. It has a bad habit of making a lot of noise when music comes on suddenly, like commercials on tv. She only bites when I try to grab her ass from both sides, or the bottom. She will sit (painfully) on my shoulder or anywhere if I am sleeping, but she hates being grabbed.

She also seems to get high when you scratch her head.
 
She is an amazon. I've had one for a few years now, also have a cockatoo.

sure its a she?

edit: double yellow headed amazon to be exact.

Not quite, how can you tell. I figured she was a she because she used to feed my other parrot by throwing up (lol), who passed away after 20+ years. I figured all girl parrots do that. 😛

My brothers a vetinarians assistant. Some woman came by and dropped the bird off saying it was about to die since it had almost no feathers. My bro gave him to me since I already had another parrot, and I wanted another.

I dont know the original origin of the parrot, although someone probably snatched it from a tree somewhere.
