Update 9/4/2006: Zelda the sun conure has become a total love, enjoys head scratches belly rubs and rarely nips and doesn't bite. Her foster mom says that someone better adopt her soon because she (the foster mom) is getting too attached!!! Hi, humans! I'm Zelda the sun conure. I'm in desperate need of a permanent home and loving family. Through no fault of my own I ended up in an ugly situation. My mom loved me, played with me and fed me well, but I was very excitable (as all conures are) and being an only bird I became very loud. I just wanted to be out with my mom all the time. My parents couldn't handle the noise and my dad would punish me by hitting me and knocking me off my perch---now I am a little nervous about hands. My mom was worried about my well-being and the sanity of her family, and surrendered me to Mickaboo. In spite of my past, I have loads of potential. I love to come out of my cage, but I feel safest when I am on top of it or on a shoulder. I liked to be petted by my old mom, but I'm still timid of my foster mom, though I have no objections to taking treats from her hand. I'll step up on a stick from in the cage and on an arm when away from my cage. I'm a great eater---I eat some pellets and all kinds of table foods and baths are OK too. I love to greet my foster mom with screams, but make nice sounds when she is hanging out in my room. A home with other birds would make me feel more relaxed. Mickaboo thinks looks aren't what counts, but this is my story so I have to mention that I'm just about the most gorgeous bird ever! I'm also only 3 to 4 years old!
