Red Crested Turaco

Postby entrancedbymyGCC » Tue Aug 03, 2010 1:41 pm

It's not a parrot, but it is a bird... I found a new local bird store and checked it out yesterday. They had one of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red-crested_Turaco in the store as well as a Toucan. The Turaco was interesting to observe, hopping around his enormous cage rather like a kangaroo and sounding like a jungle in a box. They also had a ton of African greys, all sold. I guess they are popular!

I had a co-worker who had a couple of pairs (he has a large aviary). They are very cool! :thumbsup:
