Duncan
is my Lesser Jardine's parrot who hatched December 31, 2001. He
is my second parrot from the Poicephalus family and stands behind
everything that I have ever read about his kind (except for the
"Jattitude" - I have yet to experience that). He's everything I have
ever wanted in a parrot and more!
By the time I had Duncan for about three weeks, it seemed as if he's
been here forever. He's such a sweetie and loves to be cradled in my
arms as I preen his face. He doesn't nip on my face or fingers anymore
although he will gnaw on my boyfriend's finger when we hang out together
(jealousy?).
He doesn't talk yet but he recently picked up my Cockatiels high-pitched
version of the wolf whistle. He's a very curious parrot who will
explore anything that he observes me doing. He loves to play with balled
up pieces of paper and q-tips. He loves veggies, nuts, spaghetti, and
blue berry muffins. He hates when I leave him and I hate when I have to!
He has a long wonderful life ahead of him and I can't wait to live it
with him! Thinking of getting a Jardine's? Don't hesitate! Duncan is
sweet, cuddly, very playful, explorative, and quiet! What a perfect
package!
