REHOMING PROCEDURE

Here at 'Happy Wings' all birds under go on arrival an assessment period of
at LEAST four weeks to assess what type of home would suit them the best. During this time we will give them the opportunity to mix with other
parrots, be handled by men and women, find anything they are fearful of, we
will make adjustments to their diet and introduce new foods, work on
behavioural issues, they will also see our avian vet for a check up and to
be microchipped to Happy Wings. The bird will only go up for homing where we feel ready, so the assessment
period may be extended. When ready to be homed we will add a rehoming thread for the bird. It will
ask interested parties to send a pm to Debbie Crawford briefly outlining
the home you can offer with a number so your application can be discussed
in due course. We will wait a week or so to give people a chance to apply before speaking
to everyone in turn, and this will normally narrow things down to one or
two people they may be spoken to again at length. Once we have decided we will offer the bird to that person subject to a
homecheck. You will then be asked to enter into a rehoming contract and a rehoming fee
will be requested to continue our work. Please note if at any time you can no longer keep the bird it must be
returned to the rescue as legal ownership is retained by us via the chip. PLEASE NOTE:

We will NOT discuss a bird Re adoption until it's assessment is finished.

REHOMING POST
Here we have the three musketeers, all siblings from a pair of our aviary quakers, there is a seperate post explaining how this accident came about šŸ˜³.
They were with their parents in the nest till 6 weeks old when one jumped out and the parents lost interest in all three at that point.
They were handfed from then on indoors until weaned. They now eat a pellet diet with fresh food daily and occasional seed .
Theo are very tame ( Parker and Yoda ) Scooby is the oldest and the first to do everything , he is cheeky and always in mischief and is currently quite bitey but I do believe itā€™s a stage and he will revert back to being happy to be handled.
They are currently sharing one cage but will be put into seperate cages for a few days before going to their new homes
They have all been vetchecked but not microchipped as too small. They will all have a cage to bring with them.
Anyone interested in rehoming one of them please contact me by messenger highlighting the type of home you can offer.

Meet Happy, an 18 month cockatiel who arrived yesterday.
Happy is a very tame little bird and weā€™re told he loves to come and sit with you.
Happy came in with Skylar the budgie but we donā€™t believe heā€™s met many other birds of his own kind.

Please donā€™t ask to adopt Happy at this time as he needs assessed in foster and a health check at our vets as per usual protocol.

ANOTHER NEW ARRIVAL
last one for tonight folks lol!
Meet Dill, a four year old quaker who was surrendered today urgently as owner is poorly .
Dill is not hand tame, I know her history from reading her ring, which matches more than half of our aviary quakers and I've made the decision to integrate her into our quaker aviary.
She is in need of a bit of beauty treatment first though as she has loads of new pin feathers !

Today is vets day. We have Jojo the little quaker who arrived after suffering a rat bite to his eye and his big forward facing toe.
Unfortunately The toe is going to need to be amputated, it is dead and his other toe is crossing over it impeding his walking. He has no feeling in it so heā€™s in no pain. It will be removed in the new year.

Olly the cockatoo was microchipped and had an X-ray if his foot while under anaesthetic with no abnormalities found, itā€™s worth noting heā€™s not chewed it since half hour after arriving. Heā€™s not had any pain meds for 4 days now but has still left it alone so well monitor f he returns to it. He sounded like he was being murdered in the vets bless him. No picture of olly from vets as so not to upset him. The vet said Olly is a bit underweight, I will work on increasing it but itā€™s not uncommon for cockatoos to be a bit on the thin side and he is a bit of a stress bird.

Walter had health check, nails done and a microchip and was found to be in great condition.

REHOMING........ Flying Feathers are now seeking a forever home for.....Meet 'Molly & Rocco'.....AKA Mr & Mrs.....a beautifully bonded pair of Senegals, both came in to rescue separately due to owners change in circumstances & fell in love, Molly is a friendly little lady however does not like other birds apart from her husband Rocco & in foster has been known to chase & attack other birds & be very aggressive, Mr Rocco is a lovely boy but can take a dislike at times to Men, he came in pretty plucked but is now feathering back up nicely
Both birds will come equipped with their cage & toys

We are specifying that these birds go to a home preferably with no other birds or if so kept in different rooms & given separate cage time out

Can you offer Molly & Rocco a forever home??

Anyone feeling they can offer a home to this beautiful duo then please drop me a message & outlining what kind of home you can offer & we will be back to you in due course

Thank you for reading

REHOMING THREAD
This is Bob and Polo. Bob is 44 and absolutely tiny for a grey at just 320g, also the darkest I've ever seen.
He doesnā€™t step up instead waits for you to scoop him up without clinging onto the bars quite happy to be carried.
He loves to sit out his stand or cagetop and chatters away all the time. Very friendly little guy! His language can be a bit colorful on the odd occasion and he did a good Bobby Flay impression while at the vets šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

His friend is Polo who is 23 years old. He is an escapologist and will need locks on all his doors or heā€™s out the minute you turn your back. Heā€™s a fun little bird. He seems to enjoy hanging upside down too!
He likes to sit out on his cagetop and will fly to get to where he fancies sitting next you canā€™t relay on him staying where you put him šŸ˜‚

Both birds came from one home although seperate cages and will not be separated so please donā€™t ask.
If you feel you could offer this pair the home they need please send us a message

27/12/2023

I canā€™t stop laughing Charlie Macaw (who has never comes off his cage so far) just came waddling into the big bird room , past me and said ā€œjust getting you a walnutā€ as he headed up towards the kitchen area.
The bird is hilarious! I used to say to him when I walked away hold on getting you a walnut and he said the phrase a few times but heā€™s never set off as if to fetch one himself šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ˜

23/12/2023

Ladies and gents I need to point something out following a recent event.
Can I just say anyone caught lying over their home situation or their experience with parrots to get a bird they would otherwise not be considered for will be removed from the group.
It really isn't hard with a few questions to discover someone really has no idea about handling the bigger birds or in fact any bird and have told a few lies. No second chances here guys. You get caught you lose our respect and any chance of adopting from us. Thank you.

New bird alert!
We've had a lovely little guy in tonight who was only local to me and altho hugely loved by his mom whoā€™s so upset to let him go her husband has become allergic to him and so they've had to let him go.
He didnā€™t have to travel and it was quite urgent so we let him come tonight.
Heā€™s a cutie, heā€™s called Birdy and is around 7 years old. Heā€™s been whistling away in the kitchen while I was having a new light fitted in the birdroom (as itā€™s dark since the old one broke thatā€™s definately essential ) and he has been whistling to the others making his presence known.
He will sit on your hand etc he is tame, but Iā€™m told itā€™s on his terms, so we will see how we get on.
I believe I have a stand for his cage in the aviary so will check tomorrow in daylight but the boxez have brought him up to the others level , if it doesnā€™t fit I have a cage same as Angels he can use while here Instead

MEET HARRY our latest arrival. He is a very much loved 36 year old blue fronted Amazon , gender unnnown.
He has had one owner for over 30 years and I do believe Derek has introduced himself. Sadly after the passing of his wife Derek is leaving the family home and Harry cannot accompany him.
Harry will be under assessment for at least the next 30 days during which he will have a good check with our vet. It is believed heā€™s totally blind in his left eye .
NO REHOMING APPLICATIONS AT THIS TIME THANK YOU .
Iā€™d also like to thank those of you who greeted Derek and reassured him we will take excellent care of Harry šŸ˜Š

Meet Pumba, a 22 year old grey assumed male who arrived yesterday.
Pumba has had one home in his 22 years and now due to a change in circumstances heā€™s came in to find a new home.
Pumbas been very well loved and cared for and has had an excellent diet throughout his life. He stepped up straight away for me and has done a couple of times since.
Pumba is already microchipped but is being health checked at the vets as I type.
Please do not ask to rehome him or try to register interest at the moment as he needs to complete his 30 day assessment first.

Two of our resident birds had a new cage today donated by a lovely couple.
These guys have been here for over 18 months now after being seized in connection with a cruelty case.

They have been challenging since they arrived, they can be quite aggressive, but this has improved a lot while here. Either that or I've just got used to it šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚!

One problem we've had is Darling is an escapologist and if she gets out she lets Harley out, and she steals the k***s off the food doors from other cages while Harley lets everyone else out šŸ¤£šŸ¤£.
So with the double cage Itl be easier to keep them both inside it!

And I know it needs more toys etc, we literally just got it put together for teatime before I have to feed everyone but they have what they needed for tonight

Meet Polly, a 24 year old umbrella whoā€™s gender is not quite decided yet!
His/ her eyes would be black if male or brown with a black pupil if female . His eyes are almost black , but you can just see a black pupil, so I think heā€™s male.
What a sweetheart, heā€™s another Cracker but with two wings!
He is very loud though and as normal for brolleys wants attention and will scream for it !
Incredibly sweet bird who wants to climb onto you and be cuddled, you can swing him high, low, upside down etc.
Please understand though for his own benefit and yours when it comes to rehoming he will only go to soneone with cockatoo experience, these are complex birds who if you get it wrong can make your life a misery. It is soooo easy to let them overbond as they just want to be loved and cuddled, a perpetual two year old
NO APPLICATIONS OR ENQUIRIES AT THIS POINT thank you for your understanding in this as it takes time away from the birds.

I have some sad news that we lost another bird at the end of last week

Charlie, who was a lovely little grey being fostered by Kerry was found Thursday morning at the bottom of his cage.
He was taken straight to a local vets who see birds as he wasnā€™t in a condition to travel and they confirmed what we already knew, that Charlie was going to pass away and so to prevent further suffering to him they put him to sleep.
Fly high little charlie you will be sadly missed. Thank you Kerry for looking after him while he was with us

New boy Sam came out for a look around today . He played on his cage / sat on it for about an hour then I tried to get him to step up on a perch and found he doesnā€™t do that , he flew off up the birdroom on his maiden flight and then stepped up lovely off the floor once heā€™d landed onto my hand .
No thought of a bite at all today . Making progress slowly at getting to know him šŸ˜Š
