Batty was tame but was not getting enough attention from his family and has become very nippy (bites hard enough to cause bleeding). We are hoping with some attention he will come around. We will also be working to get him to eat some pellets and veggies.

Sarah:

I was a "breeder" bird. When I got too old, I was given to some children who kept me in a dirty aviary with algae growing in my water. I am afraid of men because my first owner had a bad temper and my only interaction with him was when he grabbed me. I'm not sure why he thought I was too old. I was only 3 years old!
