General Info from owner:
• Tame
• Steps up
• Clipped wings, but still flighted
• Not good with children
• Have you had behavioural problems with your bird e.g Biting, Aggresion, Screaming? Explain
Chewie and Han Solo both do bite on occasions. They are very temperamental birds that are a bit unpredictable. They are very loving and crave affection but can turn quickly ( especially around molting time)... So not suitable for children.

When in a routine these guys are great but my work has suddenly changed to shift work and when they hear me get out of bed at 4 am they start calling out. This is a problem as the neighbours can hear them when it's dead quiet. They would be much better in a house where noise isn't an issue.

They are fine if in a routine ( we usually cover the cage at 8:30pm-9pm) usually indicated by Chewie jumping ( meaning time for bed) and if new potential owners have a normal routine then there is no problem. They usually wake at 7am.
• Additional Comments or Special Requests
We really love these guys and would really like to find them a home where they can be birds and really enjoy calling out and playing. We feel a couple who own their own home would be perfect candidates.

They are extremely bonded so we do not want them separated under any circumstances. They are so bonded that they feed each other.

Due to their unpredictability I don't think they would be suitable for a household with children.

Han Solo does do a few tricks like shake hands, kiss, lay in your hand where Chewie is more conservative and will only kiss
