Hey All,
I am a new member on this forum and specifically made this account to offer someone a free black capped conure. I own two green cheeked conures and have been recently visiting my neighborhood Petco in Scarsdale , NY (near Yonkers,NY). There I have seen a black capped conure on sale for months. The conure is contained in a small (dirty) glass cage . It is the cutest little thing (5 months) and is always playing alone with it's only toy and hanging from its perch. After visiting it a few times, I noticed that it was the only bird not getting sold. Today however, I was heartbroken to see that it had plucked most of its tail feathers off. It seems to me that the bird is extremely isolated and bored as it has been in that small glass cage for 4-5 months now. When I brought this to the attention of the PETCO employees, they brushed it off as a " genetic defect". It is definitely not a defect as I had seen it's tail a few months prior and it seemed perfectly fine. I'm making this post because I am willing to buy the conure and give it someone who is willing to take it in. Please let me know if someone is interested. I want to get that bird out of there ASAP. Thanks.
