In Battambang? Urgent help needed buying parrot before it dies

StroppyChops · Post by **StroppyChops** » Sat Apr 20, 2019 7:22 pm

This guy has bought a parrot in Battambang and has it in a cage that would be criminal in developed countries:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic ... H-h7Zyet7s

I want to buy the bird to get it out of that cage - it's a mustached parrot and I already keep others of the same species.

I'm not a member of that group and don't know much about Google groups. Is anyone a member of the group, and could contact the seller for me?

Further, can anyone assist or advise on getting it to PP?

Update - I joined the group (because that will come in handy in the future) and contacted the seller. Given his post I don't imagine he's going to be very helpful in getting the parrot to PP, so any help appreciated. The parrot will die quickly without help - possibly not significant to most, but it is to me as I kept exotic parrots in Australia.

Not holding out much hope and I'm confident there are many more for sale that will end up in exactly the same sized cage, but this is the one I can see, so this is the one I'll try to help. I already have a dominant male of the same species, so I'm not sure how that will work out, but step by step.

I am really not a captive animals man myself, but you are doing a rescue.
That's why i think Phnom Tamao is the best zoo in the world - all animals have been rescued.

One small step-by-step for birds is a one huge leap for mankind, Strop.
But you already know that.

I probably won't keep this one as my existing male (which is not suitable for release or for sharing a cage other than with his bonded mate) wouldn't take kindly to it, and so Phnom Tamao is very likely to be in it's future. Alternatively, if it's a wild bird it will be released.

The group is very mundane but extremely helpful. The only real excitement we have had on the site was last week when some crazed looney wanted to make an offer on a no offers bike sale. It escalated to the point that the owner of the site was threatened with death!!! The looney has since been excommunicated of course.

Threatening group/forum owners seems to be de rigueur in Bodge, and moreso as you get more provincial.
