Oh yay! You will feel so good when you get the bird in a good home! I did!

Of course, it is a Meyers so you may be about to catch the poicephalus bug! It is highly contagious. ;)

A happy future for the little foster birdie. Once a member of your family...you'll never be able to let it part... The sweet little face and trusting eyes and the love...

I can neither confirm nor deny the existence of a secret club until such time that a poicephalus passes through your threshold. (the literal threshold, not figurative) (get your mind out of the gutter!) :o

I heard the only way I could get in the *secret* club with my tiels is if I could make them really fat to look like a poi :lol: I obviously took a pass. And I'm Sooo happy to see you fostering a bird with such a sad story. I hope this works out. ;)
