Spunk is a lilac-crowned amazon that the owner said is male. Spunk was surrendered to the shelter after he ended up there as part of a custody case. Foster home update: He is mostly quiet and seems sweet (but is skittish - who can blame him). Happily he started eating the food I put out for him (Natural Zupreem, Harrisons, Nutri-Berries, and a couple of nuts), so I don`t think there will be any issue with his diet. The shelter also gave me some of his food (Fruit Zupreem and Kaylor Sweet Harvest Macaw Food) so I`ll have that just in case. I have been able to get Spunk to get on my (gloved!) hand and also got him in the shower for a nice bath which he really seemed to enjoy. Spunk had a vet visit and he may have a wing injury from the past. He is a fall risk and so his foster parent must be careful.

With the help of his amazing foster dad, Mickaboo is giving Spunk a second chance!
