Quaker Parrot

I've always wanted a Quaker Parrot. There is just something about those chubby cheeks lol.

 

Anyways, one just popped up on craigslist and I feel horrible for the little guy. Here is a picture:

His right wing definitely looks broken and he is definitely a plucker. I'm contemplating "saving" this little dude. I know his feathers may never grow back, but I'd love to give it a good home with TLC. Ugh. I just don't know what to do.

I know! It's so sad to see these birds all plucked and broken winged. If my bird hurt its self, especially a wing...I'd be freaking out and RUNNING to the vet!

 

I guess the lady who had him up on craigslist fosters unwanted birds and places them into homes. Why she does it on craigslist, I don't know. She said a man turned him in because once the wing was broken, the bird freaked out and started plucking itself. I guess she wanted to try to find a home by the end of the day for him because another bird is coming in for fostering. She said she'll keep my number if any more quakers come through.
