So if your firends one is not noisy, it may be sick which is why I ask about the circumstances around the rescue. .

Agree with this....my 'Too screams for the sake of screaming and boy do you know about it (and your neighbours!! I'm lucky as have none!) Where was she rescued from? What was the situation? More info please? People think of 'Toos to be cuddly tame birds and yes they can be but they have another side to them also which needs very experienced bird handling. Certainly not a bird to be bought on a whim.

i want that bird, i'm looking for a nice sized species that can be a nice companion to me when i'm working, 900 is a bit out of my price range though,

Now I'm confused. Is this bird for sale or is it in a rescue centre up for adoption?

I have tried to explain before and this has all got so complicated i have advertised this bird on here to try and help my friend rehome it. My friend runs a rescue centre. The price includes the cage pictured, it dosent have to come with this cage, or any cage. I am pretty sure if somebody made a sensible offer that something could be arranged for the right home for her.

Thanks for the positive comment above, yeah she's great isnt she!

Thanks for clearing it up. I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with selling rescue animals though. I too run a rescue and wouldn't dream of selling anything which came in. Why doesn't he/she put it out on adoption properly with homechecks etc?
