Magic is an Amazing and very Handsome African Jardine. Birthday April 2007. He was adopted by his previous owner, due to mistreatment, however, she has done wonders with him and he seems to have forgotten his abusive past. This little guy is the most loving and affectionate bird. He has LOTS of love to give! He does prefer women, but will tolerate men. He's "okay" around young children, but is not fond of sudden movements. Noise is fine...he just goes with the flow. He has many sounds, including lots of beeps and whistles, and a cat's meow if you always wanted to have a cat, but couldn't. ;) He is also quick to mock anything that he does not yet know, so you must be careful! He's taken to our Cockatoo's squawk rather quickly, but fortunately, doesn't have the girth to reach the decibel that big bird can?? :/ He says "Hello", "Hi!", "Good morning!", "Whatcha doin?", "I Love You" and has some sentences too, which we are still working on understanding. He LOVES to cuddle and hang out with you. He can stay out of his cage for hours...he LOVES being out and part of the family happenings. He also loves to cuddle in your lap (as you see in his picture) He enjoys apples, noodles, pistachios and other treats, along with his special seed and fruit mix his previous mommy made for him. Magic has what is called a scissor beak, which requires quarterly beak trims at the veterinarian. These MUST be done in order for him to be comfortable, so we are looking for someone who will be dedicated to caring for this properly. Due to this, he also has trouble eating larger pieces of dried fruit, etc... so his treats and things need to be smaller, so that he can eat them easily. Don't worry though, if he doesn't like it or want it...he'll throw it out of his bowl...that's for sure! Lol...
Magic is being fostered in Hillsborough, NJ.
