Name: Rico
Description: Hello, my name is Rico and I have been staying with my safe house mummy and daddy where I have been spoilt and have had a lovely time.
I have become very attached to my SH mummy, she give the best tummy tickles ever and make me giggles with excitement. When I arrived I was very scared, anxious and not very friendly, my trust needed to be gained again. I’m an early riser up at 6:30 and bed about 8pm sometimes later depending how I’m feeling, you will get a lie in on the weekends as I only wake up when my SH mummy brings my breakfast.
Talking of food, well I love porridge with fruit, satsumas, apples, pomegranates, melon, pineapple vegetables, rice, pasta, Tropimix pellets (sometimes but I’m getting there). Chop mix is new to me but I do eat small amounts of it along with warm cups of tea, chamomile, nettle tea my mummy orders these for me along with lots of toys. Toys don’t last long as I enjoy chewing them after I’ve had lots of playtime.
Things I like are: lots of cuddles with my SH mummy, playtime and tummy tickles, throwing a ball for mummy to catch and playing hide and seek with a blanket. I feel most comfortable when I am interacting on the floor or sitting on my SH mummies knee. I like music and I do try to mimic SH mummy when she is singing to me, if she leaves the room, I call her back as I’m missing her. I can be bribed back into my cage with a nut or two! Lol
Things I don’t like: – Little people tend to be very irritable and I would prefer not to interact with them as they can be very annoying. Men, well I do let me SH daddy tickle my head if my SH mummy is next to me, but I do prefer females to interact with. Other birds flying above me, be careful as my beak is rather sharp and very large, my SH mummy stay in the room whilst other birds are out and will often take them into another room, so we all have time out of our cages.
RICO needs to be the only bird as she gets stressed very easily and will snap if other birds get to close. She will need someone who has a lot of experience, time, patience, love, and you will need to be fully committed to helping her grow and flourish. Preferably no children as she still gets a bit nervous with new people, this may improve with the support and love she needs.
Rico will need his new home to provide a new cage and lots of toys
