This is kinda strange to put this on here, but I will be placing the ad in the local paper as well as on Craigs List. I have recently purchased a Cockatoo. These are the large exotic birds with the large plume of feathers that stands up on its head. His is an incredibly cool bird. His name is Vito. He talks. He says hello, I'm Vito, I Love you, and a few other botched up words. He is all white with a light yellow in his tail. He has been great with me and likes attention. I also purchased an extremely large cage for him. it's about 2x2.5x6 The cage also has three feeder bowls all accessible from outside and two doors. The roof also opens.
The reason I'm selling him is because within the first 18 hours of getting him home he has decided that my 4 year old daughter is his enemy for whatever reason. He has shown some aggression towards her and I just cannot have that. He is a large enough bird that he could do some damage. I do want to make clear that he has never shown any aggression towards my wife, my 2 year old son, or myself. But if anything were to happen to my daughter I'd never forgive myself. Unfortunately, the bird cannot be returned to the store, so I'm selling him. We spent $1900 dollars on him, his cage, toys, and food. The cage is practically brand new and is also on casters, so the cage does roll.
I'm asking $1500.00 for everything in an effort to sell him quickly. For the $1500.00 you'll get the bird, the cage, toys, food etc. The bird acclimated well here, so I'm guessing it will acclimate well wherever he goes. You may IM me about this or if you could help me to spread the word around that'd be great.
Thanks,
Gino
