Meet Bug! This tiny little 3-year-old greencheek conure is looking for a patient forever home who will continue to work on building trust with him and expanding his social horizons. Bug came to us as a bit of a shy bird and wasn't quite sure what to think about his new human friends - now, he is stepping up (with some encouragement), accepting head scratches (where he has grown confident enough to show his new friends exactly where to scratch), and riding around on shoulders! Even when he isn't feeling up to interacting, he will choose flight over fight any time and his body language is easy to read. A family who is okay going a bit slower to match Bug's speed would be ideal for him, as he still needs work to establish trust. Bug's adoption fee is $200.
