Considering placing for adoption

I have owned my two Amazon Red Loreds for 25 years. I bonded great with the first one, named Chuckles, when I was 10. After about six months, my father decided that Chuckles must have been looking for a friend because of her screaming and purchased a second bird (then we had twice as much). We named him Giggles. Within a couple of months of Giggles arriving, she became less attached to me and more so to him. She was less interested in hanging out with me and having me groom or handle her. Both can still be picked up today, but over the years adding jobs, house, children....and life, the two are as noisy as they ever were and less inclined to be picked up. I'm sure if they had more attention they would quiet down a little and be better mannered when being handled, but I just am at a loss of time and patience. I really love them as they have been members of the family for years! But I think it's time to find them a new home. Here in lies the difficulty. First of all, they have always preferred women to men, and secondly, they have been together for 25 years (and I want to be sure they will NOT be separated) and lastly, I live in Maine (not exactly close to anywhere). Any thoughts as to how I can go about finding a good home and should I?

With the long term attachment you have to them I would suggest that you spring for the thirty dollars apiece it would cost you to have them chromosome sexed.
If they are a pair you will easily find a home for them where they can be together for the rest of their natural lives. If the tests reveal that they are of the same sex then things might be more difficult, but no more so than you are facing now. If you can find someone willing to adopt two adult red loreds you must be very careful about them. As you well know they are not the easiest pets to have.
I love red loreds. Ive known many of nearly all the subspecies available in captivity. But as mature, bonded birds they are not easy pets. Actually no amazon is an easy pet. You have to love them.
Just my opinion.
