Parrots with PTSD? It’s more common than you think

Trauma isn’t just a human experience. Parrots who’ve been neglected, abused, or passed from home to home often carry emotional scars that can last a lifetime.
PTSD in humans is marked by hypervigilance, avoidance, and strong reactions to triggers. We’ve seen parrots freeze in fear, scream at common objects, or lash out unexpectedly, all because of trauma. These birds aren’t “mean.” They’re survivors.

At Papayago, we take the time to understand each bird’s past as much as we can, build trust slowly, and offer trauma-informed care. We started the Fear Free journey a couple of years ago, and we incorporate those methods of reducing fear into our meet & greets and adoption homecomings. We continue working on incorporating it into the medical visits, crating, and grooming. Healing is possible with patience, safety, and love for some. Other birds will need the support of other birds in a sanctuary setting since they have lost trust in humans.

It's international joke day, and this one's for the birds.
Knock, Knock, Who's there? Hibiscus. Hibiscus who? Hibiscus for you!

Want to make your parrot’s chop pop? Add some hibiscus flower—a tasty, tangy twist with real health perks! Rich in antioxidants, supports heart health, and adds vibrant color and a floral zing! Parrots love the bold flavor and the fun of foraging through those crinkly petals. Use dried, organic hibiscus (no additives!), and mix it into chop for a nutritious splash of color.

Just don't let them tell anymore knock, knock jokes.

1-Minute Myth Monday: "A happy parrot always talks!"

Myth: If your parrot isn’t talking, they must be unhappy, broken, or unbonded.

Fact: Talking is not a universal sign of happiness. Some parrots are naturally more vocal than others, and many express contentment in completely different ways, like mimicking sounds, whistling, or just quietly hanging out near their person.

Did you know? African Greys are known for speech, but even they may choose to stay silent if they’re content and feel safe in a quiet home.

What to look for instead of words:
Fluffy feathers & relaxed posture
Clicking or purring sounds
Mimicking household noises (yep, even microwaves count!)
Wagging tails
Preening near you or another bird
Gentle eye pinning when you enter the room

Don’t measure your bird’s happiness by their words. Measure it by their confidence, comfort, and choice to be near you.

At Papayago Rescue House, we celebrate every bird, talkative or silent, for who they are.
