Fruitcaique - Female Caique

Hi My name is Fruitcaique Can you guess what kind of parrot I am Wait for it........................... Yes Good guess I am a black headed Caique pronounced Ka-eek although most people call me a cake hence my name. I say call me anything but late for dinner and boy do I mean it. I love love love to eat I am on a healthy diet of Roudybush Maintenance Pellets (small) chop fresh fruits and veggies birdie bread and anything else that is healthy for parrots. I am not a picky eater I really enjoy whole almonds in the shell(you have to open the shell a little for me) and little pieces of shelled walnuts as a special treat.I came into Rescue because my mommy was very ill and couldn t take care of me anymore. I am approximately 5 yrs old and even though everyone refers to me as a girl it s not really official. Silly humans. I know what I am even if no one else does I am a little shy at first but I do step up with a little coaxing and a treat. I also like to beak the perch (hand) that I m stepping up on it s a way for me to make sure the perch is safe. I am not biting when I do this and it doesn t hurt but pulling your hand away while I m doing this will upset me and make me not want to step up anymore.I talk too I can say Hi Mommy and pretty bird and a bunch of other things that my foster mommy doesnt understand just yet. We have also started this new game where I follow my foster mommy s closed hand and she gives me a treat. What a fun game I love to get treats She thinks I m cute as can be and quite the sweetie. Won t you come see for yourself I would love to find my forever home maybe with you If you would like to send me a gift from my Amazon Wish List here is the link. I would be so thankful for anything you d like to send -XX -.--.- registry wishlist RTZHJTJYEVND ref cm_sw_r_em_it_wl_o_g7gKwbYKMV2Z4... More Info
