🐕🤍Meet Scooby-Doo! 🤍🐕

Scooby-doo is an ~4 year old white-faced pearl pied cockatiel and is incredibly vocal, delighting everyone with the silly way he says his name, kissy noises, and other adorable sounds!

Scooby-Doo was surrendered to us after his owner's passing. Despite this, he's eager to find a new forever home where he can thrive. He is a skittish bird who is not afraid to bite so he will need a home who is willing to work with him or a home with an aviary. Scooby-Doo does require a home with other cockatiels. He is currently on a seed mix diet, so he will require a diet conversion. He has been flock-tested negative for PBFD, Avian Borna Virus, Chlamydia, Pachecos, and Polyoma.

Scooby-Doo is looking for a home with an aviary-type setup or someone who is willing to put alot of work into him. He must be kept fully flighted and will be adopted out with an adoption contract through the rescue. Located in Ocala, FL.

💛 ADOPTED! 💛

🧸💛Meet Buttons 💛🧸

Buttons is a pied cockatiel who’s age is around 10-15 years old. Buttons and 5 other birds surrendered to us as their owner had unfortunately passed away. They were very, very loved in their previous home. However, they were not taken out of the cage much. Buttons is shy in his cage, but once out, he is a sweet but fiesty little guy. He loves interacting with his person and will preen whichever part of you is closest. He loves to watch videos and generally hang out with his person. He is a disabled bird. Buttons is missing all but 2 toes, so he does have mobility issues. He is also forming cataracts in his eyes, which also gives him vision issues. Despite this, Buttons gets around very well regarding running around and perching. He isn't the world's greatest flyer, but he can fly. Buttons must go to a home with other cockatiels. He is currently on the seed mix he came with but is transitioning onto Roudybush pellets. Buttons must stay fully flighted and will be adopted out with an adoption contract through the rescue. Located in Ocala, Fl 💛

🕷️❤️ Meet Spider-Man ❤️🕷️

Spider-Man is a gorgeous 10-year-old Crimson Rosella with an adorable personality and a talent for mimicry. He loves to whistle and imitate various sounds, including smoke alarms and phone ringers!

Spider-Man, along with five other birds, were surrendered to us after their owner sadly passed away, leaving them without a home. Upon arrival, Spider-Man was extremely underweight so he underwent a thorough veterinary examination. His bloodwork showed no signs of organ issues and he tested negative for PBFD, Avian Borna Virus, Chlamydia, Pachecos, and Polyoma. That being said, he was diagnosed with a bacterial infection, which was successfully treated. He still is underweight but is doing much better and is slowly gaining weight back! He is now ready to start looking for his forever home.

Although Spider-Man has a sweet demeanor, he is still learning to trust humans and will require a patient and dedicated home that can invest the time needed to build a strong bond with him. Spider-Man must be kept fully flighted and will be adopted out with an adoption contract through the rescue. Located in Ocala FL.

🦢🤍 Meet Lacey 🤍🦢

Lacey is a white-face pied cockatiel who is 20-25 years old. Lacey and 5 other birds were surrendered to us as their owner had unfortunately passed away. They were very very loved in their previous home, however they were not taken out the cage much. Due to this, she is very shy and will take time to warm up to her new person. She loves her cage and has to be soothed out of it, but once she's out she loves it. She enjoys sitting on her wonderful foster's shoulders and preening her hair. She must go to a home with other cockatiels as that is what she has known for most of her life. She is currently on the seed mix she came with but is transitioning onto Roudybush pellets. Lacey must stay fully flighted and will be adopted out with an adoption contract through the rescue. Located in Ocala, Fl 🤍

Spider-Man's vet visit went great! Despite his bloodwork and gram stain showing a bacterial infection, his test results were overall good. He even won the vet's heart over with his charming and calm personality and now she’s even considering adopting him 🥳 He was very brave meeting all the staff too! He was prescribed antibiotics, so he will be gaining weight and feeling better in no time! This just shows the importance of regular vet visits for parrots as they are very very good at concealing illnesses and often won’t show symptoms until their sickness is more severe.

💚 ADOPTED!! 💚

💚🎀 Meet Anya! 🎀💚

Anya is a 5 month old pineapple Green Cheek Conure. She came to us due to her owner not realizing how much it takes to take care of a bird, even a small one! She is a little ping-pong ball of a bird and loves flying around everywhere all at once. However, once her zoomies are over with, she loves cuddling into you neck and will snuggle for hours. Although Anya loves people, she does have nird aggressive tendencies. She has been able to warm up to some birds, but shes picky about the birds she gets along with. Anya is currently on roudybush pellets and loves them! She is currently clipped, but she doesn't let that stop her. She is very flight confident and has developed decent flight skills. Due to this and her young age, we would love for her to go to an experienced freeflight home. Anya must stay fully flighted and will be adopted out with an adoption contract through the rescue. Located in Ocala FL

Here's a quick update on the birds we took in recently! Scooby, Lacey, and Buttons (the cockatiels) have all been placed in a foster home until disease testing comes back. Splitz, our little splay leg budgie, has been placed in a foster home and has a potential adopter! Snowball the budgie has been adopted and is under quarantine in her new home. Lastly, Spiderman, the Crimson Rosella, has a vet appointment on Thursday as he came in severely underweight. He will be getting bloodwork, f***l, and a physical exam done. Thank you all for your support and thank you to our amazing fosters! ❤️

💚🐔 Meet Chicken 🐔💚

Chicken is a 2 year old green opaline quaker parrot. You may notice she looks a little... under dressed. Chicken was very loved in her previous home. However, her owner, who was an older lady, had hurt herself. Hurting herself had limited her mobility, so Chicken was having to stay in the cage for longer and longer durations of time. It hurt her owner to do the basic tasks of changing her food and water, so, Chicken began to pluck. Her owner knew that this meant she wasn't happy so she made the difficult choice to surrender her. She has been switched onto a roudybush diet and loves it. Chicken can be skittish at first, but she is the SWEETEST thing once she decides to open up. She loves cuddles and she gets 'happy feet' when you sing her name to her. Usally, the song goes something like "Chic-ka-chic-ka-chic-ka-CHICKEN!". She will need to go to a home with other birds her size as she loves being with other birds. She has never shown aggression to other birds, only lots of love. Chicken must stay fully flighted and will be adopted out with an adoption contract through the rescue. Located in Ocala FL ❤️

🫒❤️ Meet Eddie ❤️🫒

Eddie is a 17-18 yr old White Fronted Amazon who is looking for his forever home! When we went out to pick up Eddie from an owner surrender, we found him locked in a dirty cage with algae filled water and a moldy sunflower seed diet. This was Eddie's life for the past 17 years. Due to the trauma of this, Eddie is quick to bite. As far as he has come, he still needs someone who is willing to be patient with him. He is fully blind in one eye due to an old untreated injury. Despite the bad diet and conditions he was housed in, his bloodwork came back clean! He has been disease tested and got all negatives for Polyoma, Pachecos, ABV, PBFD, and Chlamydia. Eddie is currently on a roudybush diet. He is very social, so going to a home with other birds is a must. He has done well with every bird we have introduced to him. He has ONLY shown the slightest bit of aggression to another white fronted amazon, but he warmed up to her with time. He must stay fully flighted.

Eddie will be adopted out with an adoption contract through the rescue to ensure he stays safe and cared for. Located in Ocala FL. Do not hesitate to reach out with any questions!
