Adoptions

Life changes. Divorce, illness, a death in the family, a new baby, or a move, can throw life into chaos. What happens with your parrot if your job takes you out of the country? Will the country you're moving to let you bring the parrot with you? Will it have to stay in quarantine for many months, away from you and everyone else it knows? Quaker parrots are illegal to own in 10 states. What happens if you have to move to one of those states for work? Many parrots have very long lives, so what happens to them when you reach a point where you need assistance taking care of yourself? It's something to think about, and a hard decision to make. In most circumstances, we can help you with that. We've been in business since 1995. In that time, some of the birds that we sold early on, have made their way back to us as their owners have gotten older. Even though we are not a rescue, we are happy to assist you in finding your feathered friend a home when or if the need arises.

In 2023 we found amazing homes for 86 birds

In 2024 we found amazing homes for 104 birds

In 2025 we found amazing homes for 79 birds

We reserve the right to refuse any adoption, for any reason.

Jake

Jake or Jakey is a 25-year-old female Harlequin Macaw.

This beautiful girl has a big personality and a good vocabulary. She can be cheeky and open her food doors, so it's best to keep them secure. Jake has a definite preference for men. In her last home, she was well loved, but unfortunately her favorite human passed away. She has done OK with some women who have visited her, but her best option would be a single man or a couple. An adoption by a single woman would not be in her best interest.


The adoption process requires multiple visits over the course of at least 2 weeks before the bird can go home with you. We look for the interaction between the bird and the prospective owner. It's important that the bird can form a bond with you and if the bird makes it clear that it does not like you, then the adoption will not take place.

There is a reasonable adoption fee associated with each bird.

We don't do this for profit. The adoption fee covers our expenses on veterinarian care, transportation, and food. We occasionally get comments that multiple visits aren't convenient for the person who is looking to adopt a bird or it just doesn't fit into their schedule. We aren't concerned with human convenience, we're looking out for what's best for the bird. Simply put, if you aren't willing to put in the effort, then adopting a bird might not be a good idea for you.

Keiki

Keiki - pronounced Kai - Key

Keiki is a 7 year old Sunday Conure - he is a hybrid between a Sun conure and a Jenday conure. Keiki can be nervous around strangers but once he warms up to you he is very sweet. He would do best in a calm environment because he can get over stimulated easily. If you know this family of conures, then you know they can be loud. Keiki is no exception. WIth this in mind, a non-negotiable condition of his adoption is that he cannot go to someone who lives in an apartment.

Shuna

Meet Shuna, the sun conure. Shuna is in her early 20s. Her first human passed away after twenty years of spoiling her, and then she moved in with the owner's son. Shuna is a friendly girl; BUT, Shuna does not like children. Unfortunately, this is a non-negotiable condition of adoption.

Angel / Angelus

Angel, or Angelus, is a male Quaker Parrot of unknown age. He was found outside in February of this year. Not much is known about him, but he's a pretty friendly boy.

Jellybean

This is Jellybean the Maximilian Pionus. He hatched in May of 2025, making him 21 years old. Jellybean is not a cuddly bind, but he is intelligent and inquisitive. He is quite the talker, and that will probably show again once he is out of the store environment.

It's a jungle in there!
