My new pet ( win points )

[William]

I just arrived home with my new pet. Pictures below.
It is just under two month old and captive bred.

He is a bit stressed at the moment but eating well and will hopefully calm down soon.

I will give a prize of 5000 ac points to however guess the prize correctly within a 5 dollar margin. Ie if it cost 150$ and you guess 155$ you win but if you guess 156$ you don't. Please allow 5 other members to guess before you guess again. Happy guessing!

Here is the little quite finally:

[Sir Tristen]

$475. He's pretty!

[William]

One of you have been very very close to winning it. .50 away actually.

[Sir Tristen]

DOH!!! I wonder who it was. Wish I could guess again.

[Amazon]

Beautiful bird! He's got an adorable little facethumbs2: Ill guess..... $425

[mommy1]

$60.00...............

[William]

It was one of the first 5 guesses. Narrows it down don't it;-)

As for species. I am not sure. They call all species by the same name here and he is to young to identify yet. He hasn't even gotten feathers everywhere yet. Should be able to tell in another month. I do however suspect it is a Mealy Amazon (Amazona farinosa)

[Wiggs]

$1550.49?

Do I win? :P

[William]

Nope you didn't.

[mommy1]

$1600.....

[Gayle]

It is a Macaw right? So I guess 2000. He is adorable!!!

[Sir Tristen]

$1,545????

[William]

I think he is an amazon. Not a macaw.

You are way of base with your latest guesses.

[chipper]

[Gayle]

[OscarFan]

101.50$
Nice bird thumbs2:

[Wiggs]

$39.50?


:D hes gorgeous!

[William]

Thanks for all the kind words

No one has hit the mark yet.

He hasn't got a name yet. Will get it in the coming days. I like to get to know pets a little before I name them to choose something that suits there personality. Allthoguh I consider naming axel which is both a name and the Swedish word for shoulder which is where he prefers to sit.

[mommy1]

$150.00.....

[Gayle]

He he he Like Axl Rose :)
I wonder how long it will be before he talks? That will be cool!

.50 cents?

[Sir Tristen]

$374 ?????

[William]

We have a winner.
Gayle nails it.

He cost $5.5 in the local "poor mans" market and was sold by the lady who bred it.

[Gayle]

OMG Really? That is amazing! You got a serious deal there man!

[William]

Really. Just going to need to find a friend for him later on.

[Sharon]

Wow! That is a good deal! He is lovely!!!thumbs2:

[Gayle]

Well that is really cool! Congratulations! You are gonna have fun with him!

[Sir Tristen]

Wow! One great deal!

[William]

I can honestly say that I was shocked when she told me the price she wanted for it. I expected it to be cheap but not that cheap. Maybe 25-50$

[mommy1]

thats an incredible deal!! i hope you enjoy your new bird.

[William]

I think I have identified it to be a Aratinga holochlora

[Brookfish]

I think I have identified it to be a Aratinga holochlora

A very cheap Aratinga holochlorathumbs2: enjoy the new pet
he's a cutie for sure!

[DrNic]

That's a great deal. I read the first page, and was going to guess $10 (everyone was guessing really high), although I see now that you already have a winner. thumbs2:

Great looking animal. Male or female?

[toddnbecka]

Great deal, good luck with the new feathered friend. How can you tell it's a male? (Fish are my thing, clueless on birds.)

[William]

Dont`know the gender. neither did the lady who sold it. to know requires surgery or dna test.

[Northernguy]

Great deal William! They are great pets!
They sell for 1500 up here.
