Packer is a Senegal Parrot, and being a bird hatched in Wisconsin...and having green & gold plumage...go figure we name her "Packer" for the Green Bay Packers (Go Pack Go!)! We're so creative! :)
Packer is 20 years old, and she's the best behaved lil' gal! She has literally stepped up onto 1,000's of kids "strong tree branches" (a.k.a. arms). She's so sweet natured, I truly believe Senegals are one of the best pet birds...quiet and mild mannered. Senegals are from the Poicephalus family, along with Jardines, Red Bellies, and Meyers as the other more commonly found Poicelphalus.
Enjoy a short video of Packer & Jessica during weigh day! Every Tuesday is weigh day at the Learning Center, all the birds are weighed and their weights are recorded. This is a great practice to get in with your bird, it will also help your Veterinarian if your bird should ever become ill.
