We need to put up for an adoption wonderful parrot:

Name: Pablo
Breed: Maximillian Pionus
Sex: male (not confirmed, you need DNA testing for that)
Color: green, grey, red and blue
Age: 6 years
Banded

More info about Maximillian Pionuses: http://www.birdieboutique.com/maxpion.html, http://www.tailfeathersnetwork.com/birdinformation/pionus.php

Pablo is quite a large bird with great personality. Likes to be with people and, actually, needs it very much.
He is a very quiet parrot. Does not scream or screech. He whistles tunes and imitates some sounds. He is tame, fingertrained.
Likes to be stroked and cashews.

He would be a great fit with people who are ready to spend time with him every day and understand requirements of big birds (he is no parakeet, by all means!).

This breed is good choice for those who want to move up from small parrots to big ones, but, please, read the info from the links above and think if it's a right idea for you.

If you want to adopt him, please, write why you want him, what's your experience with parrots and where do you live. Though we can't keep Pablo, we love him and want to find him a good home.

There is an adoption fee ($275) and he comes with big stand along cage, cover and travel cage.

P.S. We are in downtown Palo Alto, so you can stop by to see him and discuss adoption. Just let me know when you can do it.
Strong preference to local adoption.
