the only redeeming quality about that piece of human garbage is that he/she was dumb enough to leave their phone number where i could find it. should be about midnight there. time to rev up the iPhone and show this turd what a nuisance really is.

There are some really sick people out there!!! very aggressive....its like they are the ones who want negative attention because they are incapable of recieving postive attention because of their sour attitude...Someone should phone - I cant as I live in Africa and answer the questions wrong to see if they actually know what they are talknig about - is it not possible for someone to get the parrot confiscated? Those who claim to know everything are those who are the most dangerous!

Charlie looks like he is plucking out feathers. "Feathers thining out" Lets question him about his parrot knowledge. Lets hope someone else finds Charlie and loves him and cares for him like he so deserves and needs.

I'd Take this Bird in a heart beat.
Ive Taken in and rehomed a few after getting them back on their feet.
I don't mind if the bird is in this shape .
what scares me is If the bird is sick...

I have figaro and baby to worry about and baby isnt doing to good .
Where they live is about 8 hr drive from me .

but Baby needs me and im really concerned about Figs.

I have taught figaro the love of music . to communicate, to actually arguewith me when she is upset.
Like Yesterday she kept saying to me when i had her and baby seperated .
" Tammy where are you "
I said im with Baby
she replied " where is my baby bird"
I said with me
She said " don't get too smart"
I mean ok lets face the fact Birds can learn.
she can count to 25 , Knows her A.B.C's and colors.
she used to tell me when the Reef tank was over flowing. after a fire last yr we no longer have the fish and really 20 yrs of Building up to a 500 gallon is just chicken feed for what i Had planned.
I had seahorses and when they had fry Figaro and baby loved to sit on my shoulders as i fed them.
Birds are smart they learn our Language . i believe all animals are smart but so far I have had only had 1 dog that could say Raccoon and a cat that says Out and NI NI .
I use the vocals they have to train.
and i do have witnesses.
I know sounds crazy but i have spent a lot of time with my feathered finned and Fur kids.
I don't have kids of my own I can't and i get really upset when Nim wits like this
are this stupid. Tammy

Hi Tammy We bird people have big hearts and will sometimes take one more than we should for the benefit of birds. You do have alot going on there. Baby has been on my mind and you too. Just take each day as it comes and be there as you have been. If I were a bird I would want you as my mommy!!

Just got a hold of rescue.
they are interested in helping out this bird .
Got to hand it to him he is trying to find the bird a free home.
so maybe his anger is with himself ?
Or ?

I thought it could of been him trying to play a prank and rile up parrot lovers because the message he sends out is that he doesnt want anyone to take the bird and is somehow proud of how he has handled the parrot and the condition its in - its like he is smirking in the email. All they need is to see his email and see the bird and he is toast! You deserve a medal Tammy - well done!!!!! That person needs help and its a pity that a helpless bird has to pay for his problems....hope they come fetch the Grey soon. :)

I called the home .
Its a women she has 4 kids under the age of 5.
she wants to sell the bird cage and everything for 400.
Rescue is on its way and i don't think they will need to pay the Dough.
I just could not stand still on that one.
Baby is still with us .
I made soup and warm it up so its not cold .
chicken ,rice and veggies using the chicken juice from boiling it .
My birds fav meal LOL .
I just can't let it go and even if baby was ok i still couldn't .
this really hurts my heart . Tammy
