Post: Getting ready to adopt???Should I????

Posted by Sharon on 11/29/09

HI, I am thinking of adopting a CAG 10 year old supposed
to be male..he is a plucker totally naked chest. I do not
have experience with pluckers. I have a YNA and a conure
great birds well cared for and loved....where should I
start with the CAG...should I try?? He apparently doesn't
like men....the bird was a pawn in a divorce and has
finally been returned to his owner but with his new issue
of plucking the original owner doesn't have the time to
dedicate to try and break him of this. The plicking is a
new beaviour for him. He has been doing it about a
year,original owner has gotten sprays and supplements and
so far nothing helps,the feathers grow back and the bird
plucks them right on out!! Any help is appreciated...I do
not have much info on the bird I have not met him
yet...apparently he seems well adjusted has alot of out of
cage time eats Zupreem natural fresh veggies. I guess
basically I want a bit of input and to decide should I
take this bird on or not??
