Talking AKC Registered Teacup Macaw?

LOL! This is so ridiculous I had to share. Saw this ad for a Macaw to be rehomed on Buy and Sell.com. AKC registered? Are they kidding? She even loves to curl up and cuddle and take naps. Sounds like a great description for a poodle.

Oh my I just checked out that site and it looks like almost all the adds are a scam. The exact same pic is used for a bird that is in several different parts of the world.

Yeah, all of the ads look like a scam. There are some Greys on there too. I think the big give-away on this is the incredibly poor english/grammar in each of the ads. I've been searching the classifieds for a new birdie and I've seen lots of ads that don't seem right, but I really got a big laugh on this one!
