Description
Here is a brief video showing off the bird. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7qPms4bnGc 3 months ago we purchased an adorable 6 month old hand-fed, blue parrotlet from Fly Babies Aviary for our son who had been asking for one for years. At the time, we told him that bird ownership was a big responsibility and that he and only he would be responsible for feeding and caring for it and that if ever he changed his mind to let us know and we would happily help him to find it a new home. Yesterday, he let us know that bird ownership isn't what he had expected and that he's ready to let him go. Altogether, we've spent about $1,000 on the bird and supplies; $819 of which will be provided to the bird's new owner including: - $400 - 9mo old Hand-Fed Parrotlet from Fly Babies Aviary - https://flybabiesaviary.com/product-category/parrotlets/?orderby=price - $135 - Deluxe Bird Cage - https://www.ebay.com/itm/143908692827 - $100 - Featherbrite Lamp & Extra Bulbs - https://www.mcssl.com/store/featherbrite/featherbrite-universal-lights/silver-stardust-capitol-universal-light - $50 - 25Lb Roudybush Daily Maintenance Bird Food - https://petocart.com/Roudybush-Daily-Maintenance-Nibbles-Bird-Food-25-Pound-ABSB001LK04E0-0765846420541 - $45 - Misc Toys & Cage Supplies - $37 - Magnetic Nighttime Cage Cover https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07ZCTJRXX - $35 - Anitmicrobial Bird Cage Liner - https://www.chewy.com/prevue-pet-products-t3-antimicrobial/dp/133549 - $17 - Assorted Wooden Bird Perches - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B095BTYFNH $819 - Total Value When he arrived from FL he had plucked almost all of his feathers off on the flight to Virginia. The feathers on his wings and back have almost 100% returned though we haven't had as much luck with the ones on his chest. As you can see from the video though, it hasn't affected his ability to fly! When we originally received him, he his wings were clipped, but almost fully grown back in and he loves flying back to his cage when the mood strikes. Available for pickup only in Williamsburg / Yorktown, Va area (for $350 rehoming fee) Happy to answer any questions. He really is a cute bird and I'll be sad to see him go. - Jason
