Chapter 245: Red-faced Peony

Guo Dongyue has been hiding his anxiety under a calm appearance, because he doesn't know if he can find the pair of peony parrots in his memory here. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info He has visited some pet stores before, and he has also gone to the star pet supermarket chain in Xicheng District to find it, and visited the largest pet trading and distribution center in Binhai City-dog market, but pet stores and pet supermarkets basically do not sell parrots, and although there are many parrots in the dog market, there is no kind of parrot in his memory.

Not only that, but he also looked for it in e-commerce websites, but there are only common parrots in e-commerce websites, and rare parrots are basically none.

When he saw the pair of parrots on the branches, he was finally relieved, and his anxiety disappeared without a trace.

When Zhang Zi'an heard that he had found his target, his heart was also wide, and he no longer paid attention to the black-collared peony, but looked up at the pair of parrots that Guo Dongyue was referring to. It just so happened that one of them turned around as if he felt shy because of being watched by everyone, allowing Zhang Zi'an to get a glimpse of the front and back.

Their thorax and abdomen are yellow-green, their backs are darker, generally emerald green, and there is a blue sky above their tail feathers, the most striking difference being their faces and necks, one bright red, the other yellow-orange, and their paws are very beautiful silver-gray. The two of them leaned close to each other affectionately, the bright red head and neck one probed its beak into the neck of its companion to comb its feathers, and the yellow-orange one was not idle, using its beak to clean the food residue from the beak of its companion, which looked very affectionate.

Damn! Zhang Zi'an's first reaction was not to know what kind of parrot this was, but that even parrots had started to abuse dogs this year......

Wei Kang raised his eyes, sighed, and said, "No wonder you are looking for it here, although this kind of parrot is not as rare as the black-collared parrot, there are very few people who keep it." ”

"This parrot is also a picky eater?" Zhang Zi'an asked subconsciously.

"Not really, because they can only be raised in pairs, otherwise it is difficult to feed. Wei Kang said, "The name of this parrot is the red-faced peony. If the peony parrot is a lovebird, then the red-faced peony is the lovebird of lovebirds. He pointed to one of them and said, "The red-faced one is male, and the yellow-orange-faced one is female." This bird is extremely strict in the choice of mates, and can basically only rely on natural courtship, and it is difficult for humans to intervene. ”

Guo Dongyue didn't care about this, he asked eagerly, "How much does this pair of birds cost?" ”

Wei Kang hesitated for a moment and did not answer.

Guo Dongyue's heart suddenly sank, thinking that it was very expensive, or that it was not for sale.

"Money is not a problem - Mr. Lu has already said that if you want it, you can give it directly to you. Wei Kang groaned and said, "I don't know why you named this parrot, but I remind you that red-faced peonies are difficult to feed, so there are very few people who raise them." Also......"

Guo Dongyue didn't think there was anything wrong with this, it was nothing more than parrots, as long as he made sure that they ate and drank well, "What else?"

"You see that they are so intimate, they are like glue, they don't distinguish each other, and there is no place to intervene in between. Wei Kang motioned for him to take a closer look.

"So?" Guo Dongyue didn't understand what Wei Kang meant.

"They don't have the same deep affection for their owners as other parrots, you know? They only pour their affection into each other, and the owner is only in third place. No matter how long you keep them, they will only play with each other. Wei Kang explained.

Guo Dongyue thought about it and felt that it didn't matter, he just wanted the pair of red-faced parrots to accompany his mother for a while, as long as he could stay with his mother, as long as he made his mother happy during this time, as for the future...... He didn't want to think about it.

Zhang Zi'an raised a small question, "I remember you said that your mother called her two parrots 'Xiao Zi' and 'Pea Yellow', to say that the mother's one is quite like Pea Yellow, but the male one, how can it not be connected with 'Purple'?" He asked this question because he was worried that Guo Dongyue had bought the wrong one.

Guo Dongyue replied very simply: "Because my mother is weak, she sees the blue area behind them as purple. ”

"Oh. Zhang Zi'an was a little embarrassed and felt that he was too worried.

Wei Kang walked to the nearest empty birdcage, unscrewed the lid of his bottle of mineral water, took a few sips to moisten his throat, then poured the rest into the basin of the birdcage, turned and walked away for some distance.

Shortly after he left, the two red-faced parrots flew off the branches almost simultaneously, flapping their wings and flying into the cage one after the other, sipping water from the basin.

Wei Kang walked over unhurriedly, closed the cage door, took off the cage and handed it to Guo Dongyue.

"Here you go, take it. The cage is also given to you. ”

Guo Dongyue happily and excitedly took the cage and stared at the two red-faced parrots like treasures.

"Attention, this kind of parrot is very difficult to feed. Wei Kang reminded again.

Guo Dongyue was excited, but he didn't care too much about Wei Kang's warnings, and just wanted to bring them back quickly, as if he was afraid that Wei Kang and Lu Mingyi would suddenly regret it.

"Is it because they are not suitable for cages?" Zhang Zi'an was in a calm and objective position of a third party, and did not ignore Wei Kang's reminder.

"It's hard to say. Wei Kang shook his head, "But it should be somewhat related." No animal evolved to live in a cage, and even more so birds that are born with wings. In short, the survival rate of red-faced parrots raised by individuals is very low, and even in such a privileged open environment as the phoenix song aviary, with a dedicated bird doctor, the survival rate of red-faced parrots is less than half. If it is replaced by someone else, I do not recommend raising it...... But there must be a reason why you named this parrot, so I won't say anything more. ”

Wei Kang said solemnly, Zhang Zi'an believed that he was not alarmist, it seems that the red-faced parrot is indeed difficult to feed, and he can't help but feel bottomless, because these two parrots must be stored in his pet shop, and Richard will try to teach them to speak.

"One more point. Wei Kang added, "This kind of parrot, when the partner dies, the other will be immersed in pain all day, probably not living for a few days, often one death is a dead couple." ”

Zhang Zi'an was in awe, the red-faced parrot's unswerving loyalty to love dwarfed the human beings who claimed to be the spirits of all things, and they really deserved to be the lovebirds of lovebirds.

Wei Kang saw that Guo Dongyue was in a hurry to leave, so he didn't hold on anymore, and told them a few words about the dietary points of red-faced parrots. Zhang Zi'an remembered them one by one, even experts like Wei Kang are so cautious, it seems that this red-faced parrot is really difficult to raise.

After giving all the explanations, Wei Kang personally sent them out.
