AvailableAbout King Boo
King Boo (or Boo) is ready for a new home! Boo was found hanging around a parking lot at an apartment complex in in Winston Salem, NC. He was likely dumped the victim of a ceremonial release or was dumped since he's a fancy breed commonly kept in lofts for breeding and showing rather than free flown or raced. He was seen with another Capuchin pigeon in the area, but his friend or partner hasn't been seen since the first sighting. Thankfully, an individual saw the post about him and was able to get him into safety and transported to Heartwing Haven. Boo is a striking white bird with a hint of brown flecked on his shoulders. He has the classic look for a Capuchin pigeon with his fancy scarf of regal neck feathers. He loves flying around in the office and gets excited whenever I walk by his enclosure and especially when it comes closer to the end of my work day when I let everyone into the office space to exercise. This king prefers not to be dirtied by human hands so he makes sure to avoid them. He will, however, eat treats that have been placed down for him. He gets along well with the others and tends to stay near his parliament of white pigeons. He would rather not participate in the squabbling of the lay pigeons to keep himself looking like the king he is. He would prefer to live in a castle of an aviary or have free roam in his new house for most of the day. He may be able to get used to a suit as well with some practice. If you're interested in adopting this dapper gentleman, please submit an adoption application! (All my rescues are DNA sex tested, treated for parasites, and vaccinated for PMV prior to being posted. I also personally vet all potential adopters.) Location is Asheville, NC, USA but willing to meet up to two hours away.
