Kono

Description

Hatch Date: May 1997 Kono is a DNA tested Female Goffins Cockatoo, 28 years old  Diagnosed with PDD - Avian Borna Virus. SPECIAL NEEDS  This bird is a sweetheart.One of the best birds I have ever fostered! Not your average hand tame bird, excepts hugs regularly and she will allow you to chicken grab her ;) Seems to prefer females, but is not aggressive towards men as we have seen. She is going to need someone with experience, educated or no other birds in the home, unless also PDD positive. There are other birds in her foster home, but to we are very carefull to clean her cage last.We are-not seeing any signs of issues with her so far. She will not do well in a Condo, Apartment, or Townhouse type of residence. She has been known to come down of the cage and has been known to wander around the house, so will need constant supervision when out of the cage, and looking to be around no other animals that will be a  threaten her well-being. She is NOT on any medication at this time. But may require some in the future. She eats an extremely well, fresh and pelleted diet. NO seed.  We are looking for a female that gets to work from home. She requires regular out-of-cage time and attention. She is a Cockatoo, so will be loud at times, but not a constant screamer.   Kono is foster in Leonardo, NJ She will require in-person visits before adoption.   We do not ship our birds.  For the Love of Birds is a network of dedicated foster homes throughout NJ and Eastern PA.  As our adoptable birds are living in private homes, we only allow approved adopters to make the required visits.
