Cockatoo Rescued Tests Positive for Deadly Disease
Cockatoo Liberty and Victoria Huffman from Animal Alliance of San Diego have a journey ahead of them. Beak and Feather Disease in a parrot is a serious bird disease. Thankfully Victoria is committed to her Rescued Cockatoo Liberty and is ready to go to battle for him. Liberty spent most of his life in a tiny cage padlocked and not handled for 30 years. This is a story that happens way too often to these beautiful cockatoos in captivity. Victoria's dream is for Cockatoo Liberty to live many happy years stretching his wings and enjoy life being a silly cockatoo. Sadly he tested positive for PBFD. We are hoping for a miracle now when he goes in for the second test. Please keep Liberty, Victo...

Cockatoo Padlocked and Not Handled for 30 Years | RESCUED!!
Просмотров 147 тыс.3 года назад
Cockatoo padlocked and not handled for 30 years is something that happens often. Parrots are wild animals, and especially Moluccan Cockatoos can become dangerous if not in experienced hands. Only through the death of an owner is when many Parrots finally gain their freedom. Cockatoos are one of the most neglected and abused birds on the planet because it is almost impossible to keep a cockatoo ...
Sick African Grey Parrot Needs Our Help!
Просмотров 3,4 тыс.3 года назад
A sick African Grey Parrot still needs HELP from the Bird Community. African Grey Sibiya's mom reached out to me a few weeks ago asking for help to save her African Grey, who was dying of cancer, but we didn't know she was cancer until her first avian vet appointment. I reach out to the Bird Community on Facebook, and good things started to happen. So many incredible people in this world! Sibiy...

    I love you guys and what you do. I am mostly joking, but that is a lot of bare skin when going into deal with a cockatoo that’s been denied socialization for so long. I commend that degree of bravery. In fact, I still have cockatoo scars. Zero regrets but still. 😅🤗❤️👍

    I rescued a Timneh a couple of years ago when his owner could no longer look after him. He too had been confined for 30 years in a cage with just one toy and fed almost exclusively sunflower seeds. He'd never been touched or handled. He was terrified when I caught him to take him home. I put him on the top of his cage with perches, toys, some decent food and water, but left the door of the cage open so he could go in, but he didn't. Now he goes in and out of his cage as he wishes. He has the run of the house, but seems to prefer chilling on the top of his cage or chewing the cardboard I put around the bottom of his cage to catch the poop. He now comes over for a head scratch, takes treats nicely from my fingers without biting and talks, dances and whistles all the time. His new life has finally begun. Murderers don't get 30 years in solitary confinement, so why should a bird?

    Well the owner is finally gone. There's a lot of other cruel people who are keeping these birds in cages 24/7. That would drive anyone crazy. I wish that those people could experienced being locked up in a cage, indefinitely, not knowing when they will get out, if they ever get out. Maybe they will develop some sense of empathy.

    A properly functioning government would treat such owners as the criminals they are -- and also the breeders. Birds as big as a cockatoo should not be house pets (rescues excepted).

    pretty sad that once she found out the test was false positive like most PBFD tests do ALWAYS TEST AT LEAST 3 TIMES and with a different lab! These tests are NOT highly accurate false positive rate is extremely high!!! Im so thankful to GOD that this birds tests were false and he is a happy healthy rescue again.

    My self funded parrot rescue has been exposed to PBFD as well I am in process of separating out positives from negative .I ordered a 36 ft outside aviary and found a avian vet who will help me through this. I had the sick bird in a separate part of my home and it does move once in your home. I started all 32 birds on a high hemp diet with their pellets and seed . I will not give up on any of these birds.

    @sick9990101 Год назад

    good that the second test is negative. But though the PBFD can lead to premature death that is not always the case. A bird with that condition can live many years. So the drama here is totally out of order. Aside from this: it is still only a bird, an animal and considering that each year in the US 10.000+ humans are being killed "thanks" to rifle mania please see things in perspective.

    It sickens me to see this. My sister has an over 20 year old African grey and he’s been in his cage his entire life. I’ve approached her many times to surrender him so he can have some kind of a normal bird life, but all she does is get angry at me and we end up in a huge fight. The bird is hers, but she claims her husband won’t let her surrender him. It’s pathetic and angers me so much and makes me so sad. What makes this even worse is that they have always had dogs and they treat their dogs like humans, only the best of everything. I just don’t get it.

    I rescued a moulaccan from a pet store. He also had been cage bound. We opened his door and after a few hours, we went to bed. (There was nothing he could get into). He had been on a diet of white bread and peanuts in the shell. Next morning I came down to check on how he’d managed during the night, only to find him sitting on the arm of a captain oak chair, eating breakfast with my 7 yr old! She’s quite the bird person from day one. All birds love her!……he was so happy to be out of his cage, we never shut his door again! I had a parrot book, so I called the author…he gave me a diet for him. Mostly beans….green beans, kidney beans etc, which after starving himself for 4 days, he finally decided it wasn’t that horrible. I froze food in ice cube tray. The bird Dr told me he would die on bread and peanuts. He urned out to be a beautiful bird. Very quiet and so gentle.
