Tropic Zone Exotic Birds

Meet Jango

ON HOLD

Jango is a 20(ish) year old male Timneh African Grey. His last owner adopted him from here at Tropic Zone in 2017 and changing life circumstances brought him back to us. His life prior to 2017 is unknown.

This boy can be cage aggressive but is sweet once he is away from his cage. He steps up when asked, accepts new people, tolerates other birds and plays with toys. He knows some commands, and steps up onto a stick when asked.

Jango talked when he feels like it, and has a few tricks like waving, turning and dancing that he will do (when he feels like it) in exchange for a cashew. He loves to give kisses.

Adoptions require multiple visits over the course of at least 2 weeks before the bird can go home with you. We look for the interaction between the bird and the prospective owner. It's important that the bird can form a bond with you and if the bird makes it clear that it does not like you, then the adoption will not be possible. Tropic Zone is a very different environment from the home environment the bird was used to. Birds available for adoption may have behavioral quirks such as aggression, biting, screaming, or the use of foul language, and many time these behaviors do not appear until after the bird leaves the store and returns to a quieter home environment. We make every effort to notify you of behaviors we know about, but Tropic Zone takes no responsibility for behaviors that appear after the bird leaves the store.
