Nicola that is an Alexandrine The cage is a bit small for him, his tail feathers look a little ratty but he may have been in to small a cage at his original home.
You can try to put some flyiers up in petshops and vet clinics to see if the owner comes forward. Once he gets comfortable with you and his surroundings he will probably tell you his name. It doesn't look like he is wearing a leg band so it's going to hard to find out where he come from.
He is a very beautiful bird.

What a beauty! I agree with Donna, would opt for a little bigger cage, but he will be okay in there for a while. He may have traveled quite a way, but I am sure someone is missing that darling!
thanks for the feedback ladies.
I am going to try the flyer thing ive just got to get some ink for my printer so i can print some off.
I thought he might have needed a bigger cage but being as he isnt mine there isnt much point in purchasing one just yet incase the owners do come to get him and then ive got out of pocket for nithing and where as normally i wouldnt mind but i have dogs and kids to look after too lol.
But im very greatful for the replys and i will deffinately let you know how it goes.
I have just posted a reply on another topic ive asked about and i am so going to get me one if the owner claims this one back.
I do have a video of him doing this stevie wonder type dance on top of the cage when he came out and it is sooo funny.
I wish my rosella was as out going as this lil fella.
thanks for the feedback.xx
hiya guys,
well its been ovr a week now and where as he has come out of his shell so much and has taken to me especially ive done everything i can to find his owners but with no luck.
He isnt microchipped so i dont know hat else to do so ive started looking into a bigger cage for him and bought him loads of new perches and toys for when he is out of his cage.
i was thinking of the name oscar. i dont know why it just seems to fit him lol. thanks for the name ideas donnna i appreciate it alot.
I just need to take him to an avian vet now and get him checked over and see if they can tell his roundabouts age.
