💚🦜 Parakeet Special – Loving Homes Needed! 🦜💚

We have been absolutely inundated with parakeets recently and would love to find these wonderful birds the loving homes they deserve.

To help more birds find families, we are temporarily reducing our parakeet adoption fee to just $5 per bird!

✨ Why Consider a Parakeet?

Parakeets (also known as budgies) are often overlooked because of their small size, but they are truly incredible companion birds.

🦜 They are intelligent and curious
🦜 They can form strong bonds with their people
🦜 Many learn impressive vocabularies and can mimic words and phrases
🦜 They are playful, entertaining, and full of personality
🦜 They are a wonderful introduction to bird ownership

In fact, some budgies have developed vocabularies of hundreds of words and are considered some of the most talented talking birds in the parrot world!

⏳ Lifespan Commitment

With proper care, nutrition, veterinary care, and enrichment, parakeets can live 10–15 years or more. They may be small, but they are a long-term commitment and deserve loving homes that will provide them with quality care throughout their lives.

💚 Whether you’re looking for a single companion bird, a bonded pair, or additions to an aviary, we have many wonderful parakeets currently looking for families.

For just $5 each, you can give a deserving bird a second chance while making room for us to continue helping the many birds that need rescue.

Come meet our parakeets and discover why these little birds are some of the most charming companions in the parrot world! 💚🦜

🦜 Why Some Parrots Cannot Be Adopted Across State Lines 🦜

One question we receive regularly at AZ Exotic Bird Rescue is:

“Why can’t I adopt this bird if I live in another state?”

The answer often comes down to federal wildlife regulations, including the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), the U.S. Endangered Species Act (ESA), and other laws designed to protect vulnerable and endangered species from illegal trade and trafficking.

Many people are surprised to learn that nearly all parrot species are protected under CITES in some capacity, but certain species have additional restrictions due to their conservation status.

🦜 Species That Commonly Have Additional Interstate Restrictions

Some parrots frequently found in rescue settings that may require additional documentation or special consideration include:

• African Grey Parrots
• Yellow-Naped Amazons
• Umbrella Cockatoos
• Moluccan Cockatoos
• Palm Cockatoos
• Major Mitchell’s Cockatoos
• Hyacinth Macaws
• Scarlet Macaws (certain populations)
• Military Macaws
• Great Green Macaws
• Blue-Throated Macaws
• Certain Amazon species and other endangered parrots

These birds may be protected under federal regulations that govern interstate commerce, transfer, sale, and ownership documentation.

🦜 Species That Generally Have Fewer Interstate Restrictions

Many commonly kept companion parrots are also covered under CITES but typically do not face the same level of interstate adoption complexity:

• Green Cheek Conures
• Quaker Parakeets*
• Indian Ringnecks
• Hahn’s Macaws
• Pionus Parrots
• Mustached Parakeets
• Lineolated Parakeets
• Parrotlets
• Cockatiels
• Canaries

*Quaker Parakeets may have additional restrictions depending on state or local laws.

📋 What This Means for Adopters

For some birds, transporting, selling, or transferring ownership across state lines may require:
• Proof of captive breeding
• Historical ownership documentation
• Federal permits or exemptions
• Additional compliance reviews

Because documentation is not always available for rescue birds, some parrots may only be eligible for adoption within Arizona.

💚 Why We Follow These Rules

Our goal is always to do what’s best for the birds while remaining fully compliant with wildlife laws. These regulations help:
• Protect endangered species
• Prevent illegal wildlife trafficking
• Preserve wild populations
• Ensure responsible ownership and placement

We understand it can be disappointing when a bird cannot be adopted across state lines, but these safeguards exist to protect these incredible animals for future generations.

At AZ Exotic Bird Rescue, we are committed to responsible rescue, rehabilitation, education, and adoption.

Thank you for supporting ethical parrot ownership and helping us give these amazing birds the second chances they deserve. 🦜💚

💚❤️ Meet Tessa – Green-Winged Macaw ❤️💚

Some birds have a way of capturing your heart, and Tessa is one of them. This beautiful Green-Winged Macaw is looking for a special forever home that will appreciate her sweet personality and unique journey.

🦜 About Tessa:
• Green-Winged Macaw
• Gender unknown (despite her name!)
• Age unknown
• Hand-tamed
• Steps up nicely
• Talks and enjoys interacting with people
• Loves almonds 🌰
• Currently eating Lafeber products, peanuts, and Nutri-Berries

Tessa especially enjoys the company of men and tends to form strong bonds with them. She can also be good with women, although she seems to prefer having her favorite person all to herself when a man is around. 💕

⸻

✨ A Few Special Considerations

We have been told that Tessa is blind in her right eye, and one of her wings does not fully open. Despite these challenges, she is doing well and is now preening herself beautifully. She gets around well and doesn’t let her physical limitations define her.

Like many special-needs parrots, Tessa focuses on what she can do rather than what she can’t—and what she loves most is spending time with people and enjoying her favorite treats.

⸻

✨ About Green-Winged Macaws

Often called the “gentle giants” of the macaw world, Green-Winged Macaws are known for their affectionate nature, intelligence, and deep bonds with their families. They are highly social companion parrots that thrive on interaction and enrichment.

Green-Winged Macaws can:
• Live 60–80+ years with proper care
• Learn words and phrases
• Form strong bonds with their people
• Be affectionate, playful, and incredibly rewarding companions

Because of their size, intelligence, and lifespan, macaws require dedicated adopters who are prepared for a lifelong commitment.

⸻

🏡 Ideal Home
• Someone with macaw experience or a willingness to learn
• A home that can accommodate a large parrot’s needs
• An adopter who appreciates a bird with a big heart and a unique story
• Someone willing to provide ongoing enrichment, proper nutrition, and lots of love

Tessa may have a few extra considerations, but she has so much love to give. She’s looking for the person who will see beyond her challenges and appreciate the wonderful companion she is. 💚❤️

Linnies are often loved for being:
