I don't know what more to do. My indian ringneck parrot escaped my apt this afternoon, and it's now almost midnite here and hasn't returned back home. I have tried setting my computer outside my front door on top his cage playing other ringnecks at play, interacting, etc...at high volume to no luck. My husband and his brother both drove around our block calling for him and combed our apt complex for him as well. I'm sick with worry over him succoming to the cold weather, hunger, fear, confusion, etc.....I really don't know what more or who else to turn to. Can anyone please, please, please offer any helpful advice. I really am crying and cannot focus on anything worrying over my buddy out there. Please.
 
oh no! This is everyone's worst nightmare :( Start printing out lost parrot posters, posting adds on Craigslist and eBay classifieds, and get ready to search tomorrow. Make sure someone stays home encase your birds happens to be somewhere close by.

is your parrot fully flighted? do you ever take your bid outside?

Birds who rarely go outside will feel like they're in an alien world outside. Even birds that go out on occasion might not recognize things from the air.

When you don’t recover your bird immediately:

  • Don’t give up. That’s easy for me to say BUT I know people who have got their bird back months after they have lost it. The longest I know of is 18 months later.
  • Remember, a bird may turn to a human for help when it gets hungry and tired, so a leaflet drop is worth doing. Check out the advertisement tips below for advice on what to include.
  • It may take your bird a while to find help. Unfortunately, this may come AFTER the house your bird ends up in has thrown out your leaflet. Don’t be afraid to do multiple leaflet drops in the same area.
  • Tape posters to the rear window of your car. As you drive around – you’re advertising.
  • If you live in a location where your species of bird lives wild, don’t forget to contact wildlife rescue organisations to see if they have come across your bird. As a wildlife rescuer – I commonly get called out to rescue what the public thinks is a wild bird, but is actually a talking pet. (Nothing like being told to “Bug off Bozo!!!” by an angry tame cockatoo.)
  • Put up posters at your local vets, animal shelters/rescues, pet stores, post office – wherever you can think of. Don’t forget sports facilities such as golf clubs and football ovals.
  • See if you can get the local media interested. A lot of local newspapers will have a lost and found section.
  • Hit the internet. The longer your bird is missing the further it can travel and the average internet advert will reach a wide audience.
 
I am so sorry to hear that, I will be crossing my fingers that you get him back!
 
I am so sorry to hear this:( We all have our fingers crossed for you, that he comes back safetly.

Where abouts are you?
 
All the best of luck finding him back!! put up adds on facebook, twitter, whatever you have, have your friends and family share it - get the word out there as much as possible! flyers, local animal shelters, rescues, any bird/animal association around, think of what you would do if you would find a bird - where would you go to report it? go to those places and warn them that your bird is lost and leave your details in case anyone brings him in! I really do hope he'll come back, all the best of luck!!
 
I hope you find your bird :( good luck.
