Stolen Baby Conure in NJ~Still being handfed!

"Todd Marcus Birds Exotic" had a Baby Sun Conure STOLEN by a family of four NIT WITS!!!

They went into the store asking tons of questions about the Babys Conures. One of the girls opened the sliding glass doors to let the "daughter" interact with the bird. From there a man held the bird and according to the surveillance camera shoved the bird into a pocket and slitherd out the door.

Police were immediately called once they realized one of their babies went missing. The store got have ALL four on video and are on a manhunt now trying to find them. This baby is VERY young and still handfeeds.

Update: The baby has been found and returned to the store. The thief's girlfriend turned him in. He was being kept in a Dunkin Donuts bathroom. The store has now named the baby Lucky.


ps..thanks Mike!!!

Oh thank god!! I love that store and have held some gorgeous babies there (and spent a ton on food and toys). The staff are lovely and I am so sad that people took advantage. Thank god the baby is ok!
