So a few days ago I found an ad selling a moluccan cockatoo. This poor girl looked as though she had been put through hell...

Well I wanted her! She was 1000$ and they told me that they wouldn't drop the price.. I asked friends and family and even added her to my gofundme... But I couldn't save it up.. I get paid on the 3rd and I asked them to please consider holding her for me... But as they put it.... "I need the money to buy my kids a smaller parrot." So I have been asking every day to see if she had been sold yet and today they told me.. AND I quote "the kid down the street traded us a sun conure for her."
It's really sad because I have a feeling that the "kid" that got her isn't going to be her last home... I'm also very upset because I know that conure isn't going to be much better off... Upset and sad I just couldn't do it in time... But I am willing to wait for another needy bird to pop into my life... Still wish they would have dropped the price for me...
The only birds im really looking to save right now are m2, u2, b&g or gw macaw.. I know somewhere out there is a bird that needs a good permanent home.. I have a lot more saved up now too, but I constantly see birds that are cheeper I just wasn't ready until lately... So now I have to keep looking and hope both the cockatoo and conure get treated right...
