Who’s A Pretty Boy Then? Rocco Is!
A HAIRDRESSER’S assistant has been taken under the wing of it’s customers.
But this is no ordinary member of staff as Boyz II Men Barbers on Raikes Close, Hood Manor, had an African Grey parrot join their ranks earlier this year.
And to help raise money for St Rocco’s Hospice they asked customers to donate £1 and put forward a suggestion for his name.
Last week after raising £1,000 the draw was made and the winner was Rocco.
Owner Darran Coulburn said: “Every time people come in they have always asked me have we named that bird yet. Rocco has become a part of the furniture now. Everyone gets intrigued, most people have not seen an African Grey.”
It appears Rocco is already fond of his name.
“He has already come out and said Rocco and he says good morning, hello and come here,” added Darran.
