Here is Oscar. I collected him from his owner John recently, who sadly had to find a new home for him due to becoming ill. John was clearly very sad to see Oscar go, but he knows rehoming Oscar via the AGPC was the best thing to do in the circumstances.
Oscar travelled very well and shouted a few ‘hellos’ along the way. We built up his cage and settled him in and he was soon tucking into his food. During the evening he was pretty quiet but was left to settle in.
The next day he came out to play and treated us to some of his words. He shouts for ‘Rosie’ and tells Layla to ‘get down’ he says ‘hello’ and when we say goodbye he tells us ‘see ya later’
He is on a seed diet at the moment but I’ve seen him nibbling on the odd pellet. He’s had some pomegranate, radish, grape, pasta, carrot and Brussels sprouts.
He is a fantastic flyer and does several laps of the room regularly and loves to play on top of his cage with his new toys.
He can hear my 2 birds Gary and Angus from the other room and they call to each other and shout ‘hello’. Oscar is a lovely bird and a credit to John.
Here are a few photographs -
hello is oscar still looking for a forever home and if so where about is he ?

Hi sherri
Thank you for contacting me about Oscar
To be eligible to give a forever home to a bird via the AGPC you need to express an interest and go on the rehoming list. To do this you need to go to the parrot rescue tab at the top of the homepage and follow the guidance on there. Once you have filled in the necessary forms Paula will contact you
Hope this is helpful
