Bonk - Citron Crested Cockatoo
We think Bonk is a girl. What she lacks in appearance, she makes up for with a huge personality. Although she has shown improvement with her feather barbering, she has a few areas that might have permanent follicle damage. Bonk has a big vocabulary for a cockatoo. She says "I'm an eagle", and "Bonka-Bird", meows like a cat, and makes a variety of cute noises and whistles. She even tries to sing along with the radio sometimes. She seems to be a happy bird, and only has occasional screaming outbursts like a typical cockatoo. She is a very good eater especially if it's warm and soft. The only downfall is that she does not like men and will go out of her way to bite them if she can. Bonk tends to be a one-person bird picking a female as her one and only to love to cuddle with. She is a little bossy with other birds, but doesn not seem outright agressive toward them. Vet results: Normal Adoption fee: $250.00 |

If you live within a day's drive of Salt Lake City, Utah you may call the WAES Rescue Director, Jim Fowers at 801-225-2417 or send him an email at jafinterwest@aol.com for more information about any of our birds. This page was last updated: October 28, 2009 Private Adoptions & Small ParrotsFrom time to time WAES receives calls concerning smaller birds, such as budgies, finches, cockatiels and lovebirds, in need of adoptive homes. Though it is impractical for WAES to participate in the adoption process for these smaller birds, private adoptions are sometimes arranged between the parties. The Rescue Committee will help facilitate contact concerning private adoptions whenever possible. In the case of a private adoption, WAES neither arranges nor pays for the veterinary exam, disease testing, or health care, nor does WAES warrant the health of the bird. If you choose to adopt privately, please remember that the only way to know if a bird is ill or carrying a disease is to have an avian vet check the bird and perform various tests. Regardless of where or how you acquire a bird, any bird new to your home should be quarantined for at least 60 days to prevent the spread of disease and to help the bird gradually acclimate to its new environment. |
