very pretty girl!

Back on the market, through no fault of her own, is Midna, the beautiful blue Quaker parrot!

Midna is a friendly, animated little lady who loves spending time with her family! She's hand tame, steps up nicely, and enjoys hanging out on shoulders, preening, and foraging for goodies. Like a typical Quaker, she can be protective of her cage and may be a little nippy as she settles into a new home.

This chatty girl loves watching Quaker videos on YouTube and practicing new phrases! She says "uh-oh" when she drops a snack, "peek-a-boo!" when you play with her, and even laughs to herself. She's also very interested in whatever her humans are eating and would happily invite herself to dinner!

Midna enjoys her pelleted diet, fresh chop, Nutri-Berries, and the occasional crunchy banana chip. She also LOVES a good spa day, closing her eyes and lifting a little foot while being misted. Ahh, luxury!

Don't let her pretty face fool you, though! Midna is quite the escape artist and has figured out how to open her cage doors, so extra precautions are a must!

Midna hasn't shown much interest in other birds and generally prefers human company. She was previously a skilled flier but was clipped in her last adoptive home. We'd love to see her regain her flight feathers and enjoy flying again!

She enjoys shreddable toys, has shown a preference for women, and would thrive in a home where she can spend plenty of quality time with her people while being allowed to be her wonderfully quirky Quaker self!

Think Midna might be your perfect match? Apply to adopt her today!
