Meet Sunny Soleil. She is proof that you can work Meet Sunny Soleil.  She is proof that you can work on taming the feral in a bird that hasn't been worked with in along time.  When she came in through animal control, she was all fight.  She would come for you so much that we had to change her cage to one with doors and not an open door to reach the bowls strategy.  She would not perch train for nothing!  Here we are today, eating millet peaceably.  She did not trust us at all but was more fearful than anything else.  She has been disease tested and DNA'd.  We don't know her age.  If you are interested in Sunny Soleil, understand that you will need to win her over with patience, kindness, and a willingness to give treats and ask for nothing in return.  She deserves the kind of home she should have had.  If you are interested in Sunny Soleil or any of her friends, please go to our website > Adopt page > review the whole page > fill out an adoption application.  We are not adopting out of Georgia at this time.  Thank you.

Meet Razzle! She was hatched 3/11/2011. She may Meet Razzle!  She was hatched 3/11/2011.  She may be a Severe macaw but her attitude is all big bird!  She has so much personality for that little body!  She seems to prefer light haired men but I think she wants someone who will take their time with her, training with the reinforcers being almond slivers.  She can be such a companion for the right person.  She has been disease tested, DNA'd, vetted and is ready for speed dating!  Yes, it will be her making the final decision.  If you would like to meet Razzle or any of her friends, please go to our website > Adopt page > read the whole page > fill out an adoption application.  We are not taking out of state applications at this time.
Meet Dali! He is very special indeed. This littl Meet Dali!  He is very special indeed.  This little boy was hatched on 7/28/12 and surrendered on his birthday last year.  He is a typical nervous boy so you really have to be a slow mover, taking your time to build his trust up in his surroundings.  He doesn't thrash anymore but we take great care when we introduce him to new things.  He is so funny and genuinely happy to see you once you and he have built a rapport.  He has been learning how to play with toys and chew.  He was disease tested, DNA's, nano chipped.  Have a quieter home with stable hours and willing to share your time with him.  He will require a series of visits that will probably be more than the usual 3 visits.  If you are interested in Dali, or any of our other birds, please go to our website > Adopt page > review the whole page first then enter in an adoption application.
Meet Mia! This little Goffin's cockatoo or Tanimb Meet Mia!  This little Goffin's cockatoo or Tanimbar Corella is the perfect mix of cheekiness, curiousiness, playfulness, intelligence, and size.  Mia is a sweetheart full of life, love, activity, and interest in the world around her.  Someone can really have a good time with Mia as their companion.  We don't have an age on her but she is definitely a young adult.  She is quite adorable and trainable.  She won't make a good part time friend.  She is a better emotional support bird.  She has been disease tested, DNA'd, nanochipped, vetted and is in good health.  If you are interested in meeting Mia, or any of the other parrots of Papayago, please go to our website > Adopt page > read the whole page, then fill out an adoption application.
Playful Tully. Tully Man. Tully Tull. Tully bir Playful Tully.  Tully Man.  Tully Tull.  Tully bird.  Tully bird bird.  Those names are just what he calls himself.
Meet Sunday Charlie! He is a hybrid Sun and a Nan Meet Sunday Charlie!  He is a hybrid Sun and a Nanday which is not a Sunday but a NanSun.  But he has the attitude of a peaceful, relaxing Sunday.  He is active, talkative (not your words), expressive, and has an engaging disposition.  He likes to please in order to get his treats so training time becomes quite funny as he is predicting what you want him to do.  His hatch date is 8/31/21.  Yeah, I do think he is a Virgo.  If you want a quiet bird, this one is not the one.  Even though he actually is pretty quiet for what a Nanday can do, he has the capability of calling to very high dBs.  He has been disease tested, DNA'd, and is nanochipped.  He comes with his beautiful stainless steel cage.  He is so interested in learning and doing, be a parent that will put him in a backpack and take him places with you.  If you are interested in meeting Charlie or any of the birds, please go to our website > Adopt page > read the entire page first to understand the process and then fill out an adoption application.  Thank you.
