Echos pursuit of Kiwi continues, I have no idea why Hoku the Caique got involved , if you watch closely Echo tries very hard to sneak up on Kiwi , then at one point you can hear Echos first Love Violet fly out of Jonahs room to see what was going on 🤣

Its been quiet around here but big things are happening. We are waitiing on our 501c3 but that hasn't stopped us.

- After Easter we will start the adoption process for Spicey. ( female Scarlett Macaw) . Before then we will do her bio, and present our adoption process.

- We have a unique situation with Lumi ( male 35 year old , unbrella cockatoo ) our lastest intake. He has unique needs and we may be open to adoption to the perfect home , we know exactly what he needs and what we are looking for. We will be listing his bio , we will presenting his adoption process.

- we have a shy but friendly and fully tame albino quaker parrot , who had a foot injury and is missing toes from being bullied by another quaker . She is in our care , healing nicely , we are hoping to get her to a point of molting which will indicate to us her stress level is down before her adoption. We will post her bio and our adoption process .

- Starting in June . We will have a fully operational website with handmade toys with many exciting new materials such as monkey pods, lotus pods , large cork bark hanging foragers . Our goal is to be able to purchase a freeze dryer to offer healthy freeze dried chop both locally and via mail order . If you need toys before June please PM us . We are also planning on traveling to bird fairs with our toys to promote our business.

- We will be working towards a store front and education space early 2027 , to provide , parrot appropriate toys , play gyms , cages , diets , including fresh and freeze dried chop , nail , beak , and feather care .A chance to mingle with parrots waiting on adoption. We will offer dna testing and disease testing and so much more for your feathered companions !!!

- we consider ourself unique in that yes we are a rescue , we are also not against the ethical breeding of parrot species which are endangered and are bred by aviculturists who choose the best of the best , conduct health testing and maintain high standards of environmental sanitation . We do not support the breeding of partots because its cute or fun . That being said we will occasionally raise clutches of harder to find parrots entrusted to us to ethically raise the offspring and thoughougly vet adopters and provide adopters with education, regarding the species proper care. Proper housing and proper diet.

* we will be offering Grey and Violet Indian Ringnecks hand raised by Jonah clutch is pictured below *

* we will also be raising a clutch of difficult to find blue crown conures late spring**

No parrot , hand raised or rescued will be sent home after adoption approval without proof of cage , appropriate, enrichment and what will be used for put of cage time. All birds will have proof of health testing , DNA certificate , and any vet work necessary for rescues that we had completed.

** Due to new laws regarding quaker parrots in Virginia we will only take very specific cases into rescue . Virginia now requires all quaker parrots to be either banded or permitted. They cannot leave our rescue unless you have completed and sent in the permit ( we will help you do this) . This is due to the overpopulation quakers and the development of at least 5 wild flocks being tracked in Virginia as a result of people letting their quakers go. ** We are not a proponent of breeding any more quaker parrots as there is a huge overpopulation and rescues are full of them . We get weekly calls to take them in. " please be aware Vets are now by law required to band your quaker if you cannot provide a permit and keep a record of your quaker , they are required to ask where your quaker was obtained and gather name. Address etc. Of the store or breeder. This is Virginia Law .

Due to being carriers of several avian diseases we no longer take in lovebirds , cockateils, or parakeets unless you can show proof they have been tested for all avian diseases in the last 14 days before surrender . Again these are very overpopulated species , many spreading diseases because the owner is clueless as the birds are carriers and show no active disease .

Our first Board meeting will be via messenger video call in May . We would like to have 2 current parrot owners to be on our board.

** No parrot leaves without attending an education session with Jonah or myself regarding the species you have been approved to adopt ***

Thanks for getting through this post .

I should add , any drama ...you will be banned immediately.

If you need to surrender a parrot , please PM immediately for an intake form and interview . We are known for rehabbing very difficult cases and are focusing on legal seizures of neglect and hoarding cases but we can discuss your parrots situation.

Poor Echo( Indian Ringneck) tries so hard to get Kiwi ( quaker) to love him 🤣( he gave up on Violet , also a quaker ) .

Not Pongos hang out spot and Holly our now 58 year old orange winged Amazon seems just fine with Pongo visiting . What's interesting is Pongo is not fond of Holly. Pongo has been here 4 years and Holly 7 , Amazon's are super noisy for no reason ,all day long ( Macaws might have a louder scream but Macaws scream for a reason and a content macaw rarely screams , Amazons however scream for no reason )🤣and Pongo has never liked Hollys non stop ramblings , screams etc . So I am clueless why he wanted to check her out. 🤣

Pongo is such a handsome fella for being the household butthead 🥰

It warms our hearts, when people have comments like this , Jessica saw Spicey when she first arrived from the hoarding case , extremely afraid of people , not eating and so panicked around people she had mangled her wing feathers over the years. Sweet Spicey has done a complete 180 and is the most awesome little Scarlett Macaw, she is no longer fearful of everyone , eats a variety of fresh foods along with pellets, she will try anything if she doesnt like it she will throw it 🤣, she gently takes treats from your hands especially pine nuts ! She is easy to groom as far as nails and beaks when/if needed, she loves to be spritzed and have a shower, she loves, loves to be out of her cage , loves her toys , is quite interactive , loves head scratches, having a human preen her pin feathers and has even started chatting , she steps up like a champ and her once mangled wings are almost completely grown out into beautiful wings again, shes one special girl 🥰

We removed Lumis band today , I despise bands, if you've ever found your parrot hanging by its band on a toy its horrifying . The second reason as parrots grow and eventually age , many bands no longer fit right . Lumis band was cutting into his foot and has caused a painful deformity. Well its officially gone today. The foot on the left is the foot where the band was growing into his foot. I dont care what anybody says bands on parrots suck .

Lumi !!!

We are looking for anyone who wants to spend an hour sitting with a cockatoo to pm us and inquire. We finally have Lumi on a healthy diet , hes seen the vet , and we have worked with him alot , he is no longer panicking at the mere sight of a human but remains guarded and will try to avoid interaction.

Backstory:
Part of the North Carolina hoarding case in 2024 , was with another foster for a year and despite their awesome dedication he made no progress so we were asked to take him to see if he is rehabbable which we have determined he is as he has made progress 🥰

He does love out of cage time , shredding 2x4 pieces, showers, puzzle solving toys , music and other parrots .

He is pretty quiet for a cockatoo and only flock calls maybe once a day . He has demonstrated that he knows step up but will only do so on a stick and is very nervous about it. Did I mention other parrots? He loves them .

What he doesnt like, screaming hyper children , but does like calm respectful kids around him , nervous personalities .

We are simply looking for a couple people we know or are referred to us to come literally sit by his cage or by him on a tree stand , I do this frequently but we dont want him to bond with me , my husband and Jonah also sit with him . Bring a book , mess around on your phone. Just sit . This helps him decompress more and start to learn there are good humans out there .

If you are curious about cockatoos or would simply like to help in Lumis rehab please pm me . Did I mention hes half the size of a umbrella cockatoo which makes him cute as can be .

Pretty sure he has a vocabulary , he has started making soft noises, he will laugh , dance , whistle and we are quite sure we heard a " hello" a couple of weeks ago.

Video below is of him on our screened porch today , he loves to hop around the porch and listen to the outside noises . You can see in the video how he is curious about me but does everything to stay away when I approach. He heard a woodpecker and and was flock calling to it 🤣

Progress is slow but hes come a long way in 2 months . When he first came here he would throw himself all over his cage in panic, hiss , and hyperventilate .
