About Novia

  • Status: Adopted!
  • Species: Bird
  • General Color: Gray
  • Color: Yellow and Blue
  • Current Age: 6 Years 6 Months (best estimate)

Hatch date 2018

Beautiful , young, only 14 months old,  Ruppell Parrot , sex unkown 

Handtame, but a bit fearful of the new hands being offered.
Very quiet , so far, clicking and a coo here and there .

A bit fiesty at times, definitly NEEDS someone that has the time and knowledge 
to train a young bird.
Learning right from wrong, and how to behave when meeting 
other people and other animals is something that is definitly lacking .

Not a bird for a novice.

She is a small bird with a fierce personallity !

Likes to have her head and neck scratched, but not willing to sit on your shoulder 
at this point . 

On a very healthy diet of pellets and fresh food, with occasional seed for a treat .

Seems to like women , but hard to tell if this will continue .
Again very young and we will have to learn as time goes on .

Loves to come out of the cage climb around, and spend time on her wood table top perch.

Doesn't understand sharing with other birds quite yet, and can get a bit pushy if she 
is allowed to . 

She will try to go on other birds cages (a Cockatiel at her foster home) to see what he has 
that is different in his cage . Will be a bit of a bully to other birds if it means she can't get
what she wants . 

She (not sure if female) is a hopper, she hops from place to place.
Wings are clipped, but  likes to get to higher places
If there is something close to her that allows her to climb up , she will 

Being fostered in Leonardo, NJ 
For the Love of Birds is a network of dedicated foster homes throughout the state of NJ; we do not have a central location. We require that our adopters be driving distance from a birds foster home as we do not ship our birds. Due to our adoptable birds being fostered in private homes we only allow approved adoption applicants to make visits.
