Default Went to a Parrot Show & look what I came home with!

It was the annual November Newark Parrot show this last Sunday. I had no intention of getting any new parrots as my collection is pretty complete

However, I did manage to come home with a new family member

So, here she is making her RFUK debut, Golizhii (Goli):





I think she dreams of being a Cheer Leader when she is older having a pom pom type tail like this:



and here she is running around with her new housemate Nizhi




She was sold as a Chocolate but to me she looks more like an Apricot & could well be related to Rains little Rave. Or is she a champagne? She does need a few months on a diet change so she wont look quite so orange

They smell much less than a ferret!!! Most of the skunks about at the moment are descented so cannot spray.

I have an entire skunk but cannot testify as to how bad a spray smells because he is very well socialised and had never been scared enough to spray yet.

Although a descented skunk does not smell any worse than a cat or dog, they are pretty messy and they poo a lot! (and yes, their poo stinks!)

They make superb 'pets' with the right person
