Sadly I must give away my parrot - 2010/02/09 04:48 I unfortunately have to give away my parrot. My son (Who is two) has been bitten twice by this bird (he's to darn stubborn to stop). We've already constructed a "guard" around the cage but sadly my two year old will work around the guard.

Tracy is about 8 years old and has bonded (as I'm sure he will again). He's very used to change and resillient with multiple animals and people. He was given to me by a neighbor. I come to here first because I'd rather an enthusiast take him then a complete stranger.

I live in Saint Louis, Mo. I can take pictures on request. Cage needs a thorough cleaning, and about a months supply of food with him.

I ask that this would be a forever home. You would have to come pick him and the cage up. (Would need some sort of carrier.)..

Sadly I must give away my parrot - 2010/02/09 09:16 All parrots occasionally bite but it is up to us to "read" when this is about to happen, sadly it is not uncommon for parrots to take a disliking to young childen and personally I wouldn't recommend a young child being in close contact with one. Is your parrot a grey? How long have you had him? How sad that he has to be re-homed again. I hope you can find a good home for him and he can finally become settled and secure.

Once bitten, twice your grey's the boss.

Sadly I must give away my parrot - 2010/02/19 03:20 I wish I could help Tracy out. Parrots bite and will always bite. Even if it is a bird who rarely bites, they still eventually bite. I know and accept that with my bird. He makes me bleed alot less ofen than he makes me smile and laugh.

I am sure that you love Tracy and do not want to part with him. I re-read your previous post about when you were able to start interacting with him again. I wish that you all were able to keep the baby away from the bird until he is old enough to understand not to touch the bird. If you could get another year or two your son would be old enough to understand not to touch him. My 6 year old nephew is scared of my bird even though he has never been bitten. He loves to watch him and talk to him but he has been told not to touch or he could be bitten extremely hard.

Any forum members near that could take Tracy? I really do hope he finds a forever home this time

Sadly I must give away my parrot - 2010/02/21 05:23 Hi Everyone, I'm Tracy's new human...well one of them. So far he is enjoying Memphis life with us. Budman did a wonderful job loving this bird because he has been so sweet since he came to live with us.

I've been reading this forum for a while and finally signed up when I saw Tracy listed. My gut said this was the bird for us! It was a nine-hour round trip drive but so worth it for our new member of the flock.

Sadly I must give away my parrot - 2010/02/21 05:42 I am glad Tracy found a forever home in Memphis

Be sure to take him out to overton park during the summer, he'll appreciate the experience given Budman's description of him.
