I know the statistics. I know the stories. I love my bird dearly, which is why this is so hard.
We've had Howdy since he was weaned. He is DNA sexed, and hatched June 2010. He was to be my forever companion, but life just doesn't always work out the way we intend.
Our lives have become immensely complicated. We moved this past August, and will be moving again in August or September. My husband has become much busier with his job, and I'm traveling more for work. Additionally, we are both taking on graduate courses. All of this to basically say I've decided to search for a new home for Howdy because he just doesn't get any attention anymore. Most nights during the week we come home and go straight to bed. Just finding time to let him out of his cage daily has become very challenging. If there were a light at the end of the tunnel, I'd ride this out and keep him.
He eats fresh food daily, and roudybush pellets. He talks often, about 25 words and phrases, and he's not a screamer or plucker. He's loving and kind. He tells the dog "out" and "bad", and tries to steal food from his bowl. He laughs and mimics us sneezing and coughing.
Shipping is not an option. I must meet the person who will be a candidate for his new family, and so will Howdy. We are located in Houston, Tx.
