We are looking for an addition to our family. We are patient and looking for the right fit for us, as well as the bird. We currently have one bird who is bonded to me. We are looking for a companion for my husband. The addition does not need to get along with our current bird and we are ready to keep them separate at all times if they don't get along.
Our ideal addition would be small-medium in size and on the quieter side of parrots, such as Senegals (and other Poicephalus) or Pionus. We understand all parrots make noise but some, like Sun conures and cockatoos, are too much for us. We would like to avoid smaller birds, like green cheeks and lovebirds, and anything larger than a Pionus. As much as I adore lovebirds, my husband would like a bird a bit more substantial in size but nothing larger than a Pi due to the size of the cage. No cockatiels because we learned while fostering them that hubby is allergic to their dander. Sex doesn't matter. Age doesn't matter. Prefer fully tame, since husband is wanting a companion, but he is willing to work with semi-tame.
Our two-person household (no kids) is very experienced in parrot care. I have 16 years and my husband has seven years experience. Our experience ranges from lovebirds to African Greys. No smoking, perfume, cologne, air fresheners, Teflon pans. No other pets. We take excellent care of all birds we have been lucky enough to live with. We have a dedicated bird room with two custom made Expandable Habitats stainless steel cages and all toys are purchased from Avian Stainless and Things for Wings online (they are the BEST!). We feed Harrison's pellets and Avian Organics treats, fruits and veggies, mash, birdy bread, etc. We have four Java play stands and two Wingdows so there's always a place for the birds to play. We have King's aluminium travel carriers to bring the bird with us out and about. Our Avian vet is Dr. Furutani at the Mililani Mauka Vet Clinic.
We are not looking to buy a bird. We believe in true adoption rather than buying. Our current bird was given to us because the owner believed we could truly give her a great life when they no longer could and we adopted my husband's last bird (a Poicephalus as well) for a very nominal adoption fee of $50 because the owners felt we would be an excellent home. Rather than paying a lot for the bird itself, we believe the money would be better spent on the bird's CARE. And anyone who knows proper parrot care knows it's expensive in itself! We are more than willing to do multiple interviews, provide photos, and have a home visit done to give peace of mind that the bird will be well cared for. With my current bird, I am in constant contact with the previous owner and send her photos almost weekly.
If you (or someone you know) are looking to rehome your bird for one reason or another and think we would be a good fit, please contact us. Thanks very much!
