lizzie, the used to be bald ringneck parakeet
lizzie hails from all the way in the cape and was flown to us by our sister Sanctuary #theparrotsanctuaryza. Lizzie had few feathers, will be 15 years old this year, and while not a social bird with birds, does love a human cuddle. Here with our beloved Vivienne
Lizzie displayed FDB - feather destructive behaviour - which is a medical condition caused by one or more factors. All necessary tests done, she is healthy and happy and those feathers keep on coming.
#roseringed parakeets in #SouthAfrica (and most parts of the world) require permits to have, keep, transport, or hold in your possession. Breeding, buying and selling is prohibited and if convicted an offender may be convicted. #Permitrequired
