Bodhi, Lotus, and Prince were rescued, in 2013, from a
a breeder who didn’t want parrots with splayed legs.
We at Prego Dalliance Sanctuary, hand-fed the munchkins, tried to fix the legs, and provided care and attention. Everyone pitched in, even Kismet.
Prince didn’t make it and passed away the second day.
Bodhi and Lotus are doing very well, a bit on the chatty side. They both pick up new words, can talk a storm up. Right now they are learning the song “you are my sunshine.”
They love eating their fruits and veggies.
They especially love pomegranates
Sometimes there is sibling rivalry
However, even today, they sleep together, fly together and sit where they are not supposed to, together.
