Taylor gets close to a real parrot

Looking after a baby, hand-reared and beautiful green (with one blue tail feather) Indian Ringneck parrot. The two month old parrot named Zinz ( after a famous New Zealand rugby player named Zinzan Brook), just loves being out of the cage and running around the floor and being handled and petted and hand fed. He has no fears whatever, is amazingly friendly and nothing seems to scare him. He loves flying into the kitchen sink and getting a warm bath with the tap as a waterfall. He stands his ground with Taylor and if he was with me more longer, would be taking a ride on Taylor's back. Taylor is jealous of the attention paid to the visitor. He just wants a fair go. The owner, a young guy, won't know for around 12 months or so if Zinz is a male or female - it depends on the ring. If there is a red ring appearing around his neck, then he is a guy and should be able to talk well otherwise Zinz will be a cute girl.
Might get one myself from the same breeder now that we have a large empty parrot's cage. Taylor will........ eventually........ be pleased.
