Saw this today so had to share - Sorry it is a Copy Paste of a translation, original Author noted at the bottom

My name is Bird.. partykeer the Fu***ng Bird..

I am now 8 years old. This is my 6th home in my 8 years.
I remember my first 2yrs of my life as if it were yesterday, because this is all that still makes me cling to life, in the Hope my Mom comes to fetch me one day.
Mom and I were inseparable. Mom and I played together, laughed together and she made me the most delicious food.
I went "shopping" with her and could choose my own fruit and vegetables for the week.
Mommy would also spoil me with nice nuts and every Saturday was our cheat day. Then I ate delicious cheese curls with Mom. Summer 3 at a time. I may also have walked freely in the house, and every end of the month Mom came home with a new toy.
Mommy said "Every prince deserves a gift if they are as sweet as me".

One day Mommy didn't come home. I heard she is sick and I have to go and stay with her friend for a week.
That week became a year.
One year that I was just sitting and waiting for Mom. Mommy never came to fetch me.
Mom was away.
I was forgotten in a corner.. I had to learn to eat black seeds that made me very nauseous. The brown beans smelled like Muf, but I had to eat or die of starvation.

So I started wandering.
Everyone always just wanted to know “Can he talk?” "or "Does he bite?" ” ..
I had to with times all the visitors entertain with my say good then everyone said "oo we also want such a parrot"..
Other times, I was shouted at to keep my mouth shut, and was thrown with shoes.

My cage, which was once a palace, has been exchanged for a tiny stirred cage. I was "sentenced to life imprisonment for a crime I didn't commit"
I chewed my sticks out of boredom and I was yelled at. There was a piece of steel printed in my cage and it shaved my feet blood blisters.
I was forgotten outside, in the heat and cold.
Days without water and when I got water it was full of slick.
I no longer know what a clean hockey is and am busy smothering in my p**f fumes.

Today I am going to my 8th home.
Done I am hit with sticks by the bars. I'm being tart. I got tired and grabbed and bit the child.
The Mom slapped me against my head so hard that it felt my eyes peul out.

I feel sick.
I am struggling to catch my breath.
The smoke from the man makes my chest burn.
I don't want to live anymore.
I am convicted of a punishment where I am innocent.
All I wanted was your love.
You measured love at costs, and work.
I don't really want to bite you, but I can't trust a human hand anymore.
I am terrified and scared.

I pluck my feathers because I am sick.
I am busy dying.. I pray for God and ask Him please God, come and get me..
I can't fight anymore.
I don't have the power anymore.
Slowly I am sentenced to a torturing Death..

Avian Education and Training Opportunities 🦜

We are considering the introduction of specialised parrot training classes tailored primarily for new owners while also extending a warm invitation to experienced enthusiasts to partake in our programs.

The curriculum will encompass essential topics such as:
- Avian Nutrition
- Enhanced Birdie Preschool Technique (not too sure if anyone here remembers my early teens feature on Totally wild... I certainly do and certainly wish it wasn't so heavily edited and scripted, I look back now and cringe 😬 )
- Effective Handling Training
- Recall Training Strategies.. and a variety of other pertinent subjects.

Your input is valuable to us, and we invite our esteemed followers to share their preferences regarding the training topics they would find most beneficial and engaging.

Please note that our training classes will be available exclusively in Australia 🇦🇺.
