Does anyone else think this is fake?

Question

http://chicago.olx.com/pure-love-birds-for-sale-iid-12361785

the link above is a "lovebird breeder's" ad. does anyone else think this is fake? supposedly lovebirds usually cost "200-500 In Any PetStores", so this persons 45 dollars would be a real bargain. "They Are Fully Pure Breaded"...? " They Last About 10-12 YEars" animals live. they dont "last" like some toy. The first links web below shows the exact same picture from a different(?) person. and the second links web (under "indoor breeding") says that that person lives in California, not Chicago Illinois, where the ad says the breeder lives. doesnt this make them two different people? and judging by the facts and info on parrotparrot, id say that the"breeder" with the ad has to be fake.

If she is not a fake, she is a nut case. Thats just my opinion though.

Answer 2

me to

Answer 3

It sounds to me like someone stole a bunch of lovebirds from a local breeder or pet store and is trying to get rid of them fast and cheap.  I'd be suspicious - I mean anyone stating that their birds are "Fully Pure Breaded" and that they "Last about 10-12 years" - that's not right.

I go to Burger King or McDonalds for my fully pure breaded chicken.  Hee, hee, hee...

Answer 4

No, thats real. You can ell its not painted. Its a ohoto by perfesionals. Thats why the background is all fancy.

Answer 5

Yes, they obviously are two different people.  The second one obviously has knowledge about lovebirds, and it looks like the first one stole the picture from them and is either trying to scam or very irresponsible.

Answer 6

sounds funny

Answer 7

Lol! she said "They Are Fully Pure Breaded" like fish sticks lol! Ya I dont think its real.
