Taking care of a companion bird is a serious responsibility and we insist that each person who adopts a bird understands these responsibilities and can fulfil them. 

Any and All adoption inquired must be made by a responsible person who is prepared to commit totally to the bird they adopt and is open to change, learning and further education. 

We encourage children to learn how to relate to birds, but we do not encourage the sole responsibility of the care of the bird as a child's teaching tool, therefore the primary adopter must be an adult over the age of 18. 

We have created an adoption procedure designed to be in the adopters and bird's best interest, so we appreciate your patience while we go through this process. 

We would also like to thank the Parrot Rescue Center for the amazing work that they do and for the rescorse they have avalible to the public, you will see below that we recommend you read a lot of information provided by them.
