i basically rescued this bird from a small cage in a pet shop..they told me it was from a clutch of 4 ringnecks the owner bred in 2011...i was convinced it was a conure..in the end i was sick of seeing it quiet ans shoved into the corner behind the more popular macaws so i bought it...such a softie,...
