Meet Dizzy.
Got a new bird!
He is a myna bird that got attacked and his wings never developed correctly
and his foot is messed up.
Guy and Dizzy
Little guy was so little. Dizzy loves Justin, when Justin leaves he makes a little sad sound, then happy again when he comes back, and an excited noise when he knows it is bath time.
Meet Dizzy.

I like these worms.
I am warming up and learning to jump on the finger.
He loves Justin.
Buddies. He has really started feeling at home.
A little about the Mynah...
If you want a chatty, intelligent bird to share your home, then the tropical mynah bird is the pet for you. Its striking features and friendly personality make this bird a favorite among bird enthusiasts who consider the mynah one of the best avian mimics of human speech, second only to the gray parrot.
Mynah birds are lively, social birds and have wonderfully outgoing personalities. It is friendly, clever, and adapts well to living in cages, which makes it an excellent pet that will breed in captivity. Hand-raised babies are completely socialized with humans and often make better pets. As young birds, they are easier to tame and train to talk. They enjoy human interaction but are not fond of cuddling or learning tricks.
If you get a mynah bird as a pet, be prepared for it to do more than repeat things you say. These birds have a wide and varied vocalization repertoire that includes whistling, screeching, and other noises that are oddly human-sounding.
Mynahs are renowned for their ability to mimic the human voice. They can learn up to 100 words. The key to teaching your bird to talk is repetition and patience. Choose the word or phrase you want it to learn and clearly say the word, repeating it over and over again.
