Hannibal and Hova

Hannibal Hova

Type of bird: cockatiels
Gender: Male and female
Color: normal gray and pearl pied
Arrival Date: February 7, 2009
Age: Approximately 5 years old
Tame: Yes
Adopted: May 23 by Wendy at Ziggy's Haven
Comments:

Hannibal is very thin and has been mutilating his wing
(warning: graphic picture)
for several years. He is also missing several toes which makes it a little harder for him to perch securely. We are hoping his problems can be corrected by our vet.

Hova (pictured) has an unusual lower beak that splits in two like a set of boar's tusks. She seems to eat well despite this odd beak and is of normal weight. We are working on converting them to a pellet and veggie/sprout diet as they only eat seeds currently.

4/9/09:
Hannibal's wing has finally healed. It is unknown if he will pick at it but we are taking the collar off for short periods in hopes that he will leave it alone.

Gender: Male and Female
Color: Normal Male, lutino female
Arrival Date: April 14, 2007
Age: Adult
Tame: Penny is gentle/tame, Coco is not tame at all
Adopted: July 20, 2008 by Mary
Comments:

Description:

Penny was probably attacked by an animal at some point. She has some difficulty moving (problems with her legs/feet) around but seems to manage pretty well. She is missing feathers on some of her head and face. Her injuries have healed as well as they are going to and the feathers do not grow back. Penny was probably handfed as she does not bite and is quite gentle. She is not fond of being handled but could be very tame with some TLC and patience. Coco is a beautiful male. He is not aggressive but has no desire to interact with people. He will avoid human hands as much as possible and will only bite if grabbed. Part of a group of 20 cockatiels that was surrendered by a breeder.

Age: 1.5 years old
Tame: Yes
Adopted: June 27, 2008 by Kelli
Comments:

Penny is very friendly and loves to be petted. Missing some feathers on one wing from a wing clipping that was done improperly when he was younger. Scooby is also tame but will only allow himself to be touched once he trusts you. He prefers to sit on someone's shoulder and just hang out there.

Shivers and Birdie-Birdie

Shivers: Normal gray maleBirdie-Birdie: Lutino Hen

Type of bird: Cockatiel
Gender: Female
Color: Normal gray and Lutino
Arrival Date: 4/2/08
Age: 1.5 years old (Shivers) and 3 years old (Birdie)
Tame: Yes
Adopted: April 18, 2008 by Ashley
Comments:

Birdie-Birdie is a tame 3 year old Lutino female cockatiel. She is finger trained and loves people. Shivers adores Birdie-Birdie and follows her every where. He is finger trained but can be a little nervous of hands. They are best buddies and must be adopted together as they are inseparable (Shivers and birdie are often touching or preening each other). These two need a little work on diet as they prefer seed, pasta, peas and rice over other vegetables or pellets.

Romeo

Romeo: pearl pied cockatiel male

Type of bird: Cockatiel
Gender: Male
Color: Pearl Pied
Arrival Date: September 26, 2007
Age: Approximately 1 year old
Tame: Semi
Adopted: April 15, 2008 by Jessica and Craig
Comments:

Young male cockatiel. Very gentle but he is hand shy. Very calm stoic personality. He eats harrisons extra extra fine pellets and will now try sprouts. Romeo is terrified of cats so cannot go to a home that has him (he will stop eating if they even look at him). He loves being around other birds so the best home would be one with other cockatiels or other birds. Romeo is water bottle trained.
