My name is Jake. Not much is known about me. I was brought to the shelter by my former owners who didn't take the time to fill out a biography on me, so Mickaboo wasn't able to hear about my likes and dislikes. It was pretty clear to my foster mom that my old guardians really didn't spend a whole lot of time with me. At the moment, I am not very tame but I am very interested in people. I hang on to the cage bars when people are near and talk to them and I think that someday with the right amount of attention and time, I'd like to be friends with people. I also have a very pretty song (I'm told). I have learned to peck at pellets a little bit but for the moment I'm still a seed junkie. I do however, love sugar snap peas! I run to my treat dish to eat those right away! I also eat a little bit of apple but I haven't gotten used to the carrots yet. I also wouldn't mind having another lovebird friend if it's possible. I hear the other lovebirds in the house and I want to be with them. So if you have a lonely lovebird looking for a friend or want to be a friend to a lonely lovebird, I'm the one for you!

And I'm Shrimp. I was spotted in a family's back yard, flying free. When it became nightfall, the nice people climbed up a ladder to rescue me off of their trellis - talk about some heroes! I'll be forever grateful. The little boy there became my new best friend and named me Shrimp. He was so sad when I left that the nice folks at Mickaboo promised that I'd keep the name - so here I am! I am a very unique lovebird as I am a cross between a standard peachface lovebird and a black masked lovebird. I look like a peachface but have black cheeks and the white eye ring. I am a mix of the best from both lovebird worlds! I'm not tame at all and am pretty darn skittish - that's my white eye ring side coming out. But my foster mom has never met a lovie that couldn't be tamed so if you have the time and energy, I'll come around. And of course whether you tame me or not, I'd be so happy if I found a lovebird friend for the rest of my life. I'm in good health, I eat pellets, and I LOVE the veggies dish I get every morning. Couscous, quinoa, and all those veggies - yum! I look beautiful, I'll eat all the healthy stuff you give me, and I'll fill your home with song - why wait any longer, call Mickaboo today about this little Shrimp!
