    =====================

    I am still waiting on my developer to finish up on the Classifieds Control Panel so I can use it to encourage members into becoming paying members. Google Adsense has become a real burden on the viewing of this site, but honestly it is the ONLY source of income now that keeps it afloat. I tried offering disabling the ads being viewed by paying members, but apparently that is not enough incentive. Quite frankly, Google Adsense has dropped down to where it barely brings in enough daily to match even a single paid member per day. But it still gets the bills paid. But at what cost?

    So even without the classifieds control panel being complete, I believe I am going to have to disable those Google ads completely and likely disable some options here that have been free since going to the new platform. Like classified ad bumping, member name changes, and anything else I can use to encourage this site to be supported by the members instead of the Google Adsense ads.

    But there is risk involved. I will not pay out of pocket for very long during this last ditch experimental effort. If I find that the membership does not want to support this site with memberships, then I cannot support your being able to post your classified ads here for free. No, I am not intending to start charging for your posting ads here. I will just shut the site down and that will be it. I will be done with FaunaClassifieds. I certainly don't need this, and can live the rest of my life just fine without it. If I see that no one else really wants it to survive neither, then so be it. It goes away and you all can just go elsewhere to advertise your animals and merchandise.

    Not sure when this will take place, and I don't intend to give any further warning concerning the disabling of the Google Adsense. Just as there probably won't be any warning if I decide to close down this site. You will just come here and there will be some sort of message that the site is gone, and you have a nice day.

    I have been trying to make a go of this site for a very long time. And quite frankly, I am just tired of trying. I had hoped that enough people would be willing to help me help you all have a free outlet to offer your stuff for sale. But every year I see less and less people coming to this site, much less supporting it financially. That is fine. I tried. I retired the SerpenCo business about 14 years ago, so retiring out of this business completely is not that big if a step for me, nor will it be especially painful to do. When I was in Thailand, I did not check in here for three weeks. I didn't miss it even a little bit. So if you all want it to remain, it will be in your hands. I really don't care either way.

    =====================
    Some people have indicated that finding the method to contribute is rather difficult. And I have to admit, that it is not all that obvious. So to help, here is a thread to help as a quide. How to become a contributing member of FaunaClassifieds.

    And for the record, I will be shutting down the Google Adsense ads on January 1, 2025.

Please only serious inquiry's. Only local pickup no shipping thanks!

I have a female Senegal parrot up for sale or trade. She is about 5 years old not a plucker (prefect feather) nor does she have any bad habits. She would make a good breeder or pet. I do prefer her to go to a pet home only but will possibly make an exception.

She is a bit shy when it comes to handling and will need some work. However, she is not aggressive by any means.
She enjoys coming out of her cage and will sing/mimic sounds for you. She will even run over to you when called. She loves to be scratched on her head and neck and will beg for it with her head down. If someone had the time to work with her I am sure she would easily learn to step up. She is very interactive when it comes to her toys as she loves to shred and climb. With food she is not at all picky and will try just about anything you offer her. She is a great parrot so I will be selective when it comes to her new home

Her re-homing fee is $300 or $350 with her cage and supplies. The plucked Senegal in the picture with the cage is NOT her. He is in a different cage now and she has his large cage. The dimensions are 19 inches long and wide and 29 inches tall without the stand. The cage is 48 inches tall with the stand.

OBO I am open to negotiate for the right home. Please no low ballers though!

Email me with any questions. Thank you.

In the last picture she is all wet from her bath. She LOVES to have a bath every couple days. She will need a dish of water placed in her cage or she will bath in her water bowl.

Just FYI -- from here on out, every single text you get about a bird for sale is likely to be from a scammer, since scammers love these parrot subforums.
