Cinco Parrot Lovebird West Palm Beach, FL

Hi! My name is Cinco. I will be 4 years old this spring. I am settling in my foster home and can't wait to meet my forever family.

I am a very special little guy! I love being around people, but I prefer females. What can I say? I’m just a ladies' man. I do want to interact with people, and I like to do this by hanging out on the side of my cage to watch you and what you’re doing. I want to be part of all the action and am very curious.

The forever home best suited for me is a home where my person will be with me for most of the day. I would thrive in a home where my person is with me most of the time, so if you work from home, stay at home, retired, or work part-time, fill out an application! I need lots of out of cage time during the day because I do have some hormonal tendencies, which get worse if I’m in my cage for long periods.

I’m very good with stepping up too, but on a stick. I’m working with my foster mom to be more comfortable with hands and will step up on arms and shoulders now. If someone can be patient and work with me consistently, I will come around to trust you and your hands too. I need a little encouragement and someone willing to spend well deserved quality time with me. I’m a good boy and am very smart! I’m still very young and will make an excellent companion once you put a little effort into me.

I am very vocal and love to sing and chirp all day, but I am pretty quiet for a lovebird. I love bells, exploring new toys and areas of the house, interacting with my foster mom, and I love a good bathing session! My feathers are beautiful and vibrant! Baths help to keep me looking handsome, so be prepared for me to take a dip in my water bowl from time to time. I’m also very easygoing about my cage. Some lovebirds can be a little territorial about the cages, but not me. Feel free to rearrange my toys and clean my cage, I’ll sit back and observe as you do. However, the food bowl is mine, so no touching unless you’re filling it back up with something delicious!

When I was surrendered to FPR, I was on a generic brand of cockatiel seed, but my foster mom switched me to a healthier diet of Zupreem pellets and Roudy Bush crumbles. I’m also exploring some fruits and veggies; I’ll try anything once! I would do anything for millet or Lafeber’s Nutriberries!

My foster home has other small parrots and dogs. I don’t mind the extra company, even barking, but I do not like interacting with the other birds outside of my cage. I can be a little bit of a bully!

I am a great little guy who can't wait to find my forever home where I will get lots of attention and love! I would do best in a home where my people are around me most of the day. If you think I am a great fit for you, fill out the application below!
