well i've been back and forth at the bird rescue helping out and fell in love with rocky. he's 4 years old and is overweight. he has been fed on sunflower seeds and water his life so far, he has a fatty lump by his eye and probably a liver condition. he's sooo sweet though and very friendly. he's on a diet (he's so heavy) bless! x

I can see why your heart strings were pulled by Rocky. He is so handsome. In the video he really does not look overweight but the true test for that is on the scale.

oh he is adorable isn't he? He may be overweight, but my girlfriend's Cody (red lored Amazon) was more obviosly overweight than he is... There's a reason Cody got the nick name "the fat green chicken" I'm sure some diet and exercise will get that ball of cute back into shape in no time :)

i just gave him some fresh fruit and veggies, he just looked at them, he did pick at the rocket though. i know birds are hungriest in the morning so i've removed the pellets and left fresh stuff in there for a while x
