Even though he has no feet, Thumper has enough energy for a whole flock of parrots🤩
My goodness Thumper and Sammy chewed off their own toes, never knew that could happen! So grateful you were willing and able to take these two buddies as your special friends, clearly they love you very much, and it is so amazing how outgoing they are, especially Thumper. Thank you for being there!❤️🎄🐦
It's indeed a unique and surprising aspect of Thumper and Sammy's journey. 🦜💔 We're grateful for your understanding and appreciation of their story. The love and bond between these special buddies and Jennifer are heartwarming, and your kind words mean a lot. Thank you for being a part of their supportive community! ❤️🌟🐦
I really liked and appreciated what you did for Thumper and Sammy. The video was really Kool. Thank you.
They didn't chew of their feet,their parents overzealous preened when they were babies and that's how they eneded up like that. I should know because I follow their account on Instagram
carolinewatkin2054,
Yeah that did sound strange, but the adults being overzealous with preening for whatever reason sounds more reasonable.
@@bkm2797 Some parrots do chew off their own feet. We had a yellow headed rescue parrot, that one day started to develop a tumor on his foot, and he decided to take it off before we could even give proper treatment.
"Climb over to his cage uninvited" 😂😂😂
Sammie and Thumper are both so precious.❤❤
Thumper and Sammy are absolutely so special. The people who didn't want them all missed out on a bird bond like no other. Sammy is so sweet. And Thumper is like the brother who will try it all make sure it's safe for them both. What a kind family to take them in and give them a safe environment to thrive in. ❤
Thank you for recognizing the special bond between Thumper and Sammy! 🦜💕 It's heartwarming to see the love and care they share, and your kind words echo the sentiments of their unique connection.
the people not wanting to take them in could have had good intentions, I mean would you know where to start in providing housing & all the needs of a footless bird? I don't think I would. This person probably didn't know either, but as a foster carer, was probably planning on figuring it out, so they could then pass that info on to a new owner, therefore allowing a new owner to accuately assess if they could provide for their needs, but instead, she fell in love with them & kept them - which is kinda even better as an outcome :)
I'm so glad these beautiful birds are in the perfect home ❤❤
Thanks for giving them the chance to have healthy happy lives! 🙂
They look like they're wearing little footie pj's like toddlers wear. Lol
Wonder if prosthetic feet would work? Like the chicken born with no feet, once they got him little booties that attached (velcro?) around the stumps it gave him new and very active life in yard. It was very low tech (doll boots or something that the gramma threw together).
That's an interesting thought! 🦜💡 While we haven't explored prosthetic options for Thumper and Sammy, it's heartening to hear about the positive impact it had on the chicken you mentioned. Sometimes, simple and creative solutions can make a significant difference in an animal's quality of life. Your thoughtful suggestion is appreciated, and we're grateful for the caring community sharing ideas and support! 🌈❤️👍
What a precious little soul Thumper is!!!!!!!
My Grey parrot who lived with me 34 years never talked, but he could. He whispered a whole sentence once. Like people, if they don't want to talk, they won't. ❤
yeh, my rescue girl did similar not that long ago, out of no-where, with perfect clarity (and the exact voice of her old, now dead former owner) she blurted out "Hello Polly" (her former name that I had to change cause it would upset her to hear it). 2.5 years she's been living wiht me & he's been dead, but she totaly nailed his voice & words. I had no idea she could talk! She never had before or after, my boy does, but she doesn't & tbh, I personally like birds talking in bird language rather than human language anyway (although it is interesting to learn what I say most often - I get to do that when my boy blurts that out, out of no-where, most recently "what's up", previously "oops, sorry"
In a quiet haven, a house so neat,
Lives Thumper, the parrot, in silence complete.
No spoken words, just a presence so sweet,
A house parrot's tale, in rhythms discreet.
Thumper, the silent dweller, in feathers of gray,
No words to say, as he slides and sways.
No toes to grasp, just a beak to hold,
Handing off his food bowl, a story unfolds.
A brother beside him, a companion in hush,
Together they linger, a bond in the plush.
No spoken chatter, just a quiet hush,
In the house of whispers, where feathers brush.
Thumper, the silent dweller, in feathers of gray,
No words to say, as he slides and sways.
No toes to grasp, just a beak to hold,
Handing off his food bowl, a story unfolds.
On the floor, Thumper glides with grace,
An acrobat's dance in a quiet space.
Sideways turns, a mesmerizing trace,
Silent rhythms echoing in the feathered embrace.
He doesn't take flight, but slides with delight,
A parrot's spectacle in the soft twilight.
Brother beside him, in the silence so tight,
Their bond unspoken, a comforting sight.
Thumper, the silent dweller, in feathers of gray,
No words to say, as he slides and sways.
No toes to grasp, just a beak to hold,
Hanging off his food bowl, a story unfolds.
In the house of hush, where silence prevails,
Thumper's tale unfolds in feathered trails.
No spoken words, yet a story told,
In the quiet rhythm, of the parrot's hold.
That's beautiful and amazing!
That's beautiful and amazing! I am actually misty eyed now. God bless you and Merry Christmas. 🎊🌲💫✨🌟⭐🙏
What a beautifully crafted poem! 📜💖 Your words capture the essence of Thumper's unique tale with grace and eloquence. The silent rhythms and feathered embrace truly paint a vivid picture of his life. Thank you for sharing this heartfelt creation-it adds a poetic touch to the story of Thumper, the silent dweller. 🦜🌟❤️
Beautifully Articulate❣❣
Well done, you are brilliant.
His stumps look like little feet. He looks pretty comfortable standing on them.
They are stunning parrots, they look so happy living with you and thank god that they do!
❤❤❤❤
I love stories of foster fails! ❤️ ❤Thumper and Sam are precious!
❤️🦜
aww those drumsticks are pretty cute!
Bless you, Thumper ❤
Poor babies 😢 I'm so overjoyed that they have you! They're precious angels ♡
They're precious!
You give good and joy. I wish you success and love❤
🤧 aww they are both gorgeous, bless you for saving them and giving them a great forever home, cracking good video thanks for sharing 🖤😎👍
People like you give me hope!
Chewed off thier own toes out of sheer distress. I can’t even comprehend how they would be able to do that. It’s amazing how they have adapted to their situation.
I can’t imagine being so stressed out that you could chew off your own toes. How awful! I’m so happy they’re happier now!
Önce videoyu beğeniyorum, sonra yorumları ve nihayetinde videoyu izliyorum. Bu güne kadar beni hiç yanıltmadığınız ve emekleriniz için teşekkür ederim.
I'm so glad you kept them both together! That was wonderful of you. I can tell that they are in the best place and with the best featherparent imaginable!! I'm sure they will live in the most happiest home they could have❤😊❤
Love them!
Poor babies, I'm so happy they got adopted by a caring person.
OMG they are absolutely beautiful & so inspirational. I am absolutely loving this, thx so much for sharing ur babies with us ❤❤
❤️
THANK YOU for adopting and loving this beautiful birb
This is how my parrot always got off his cage. Slid down the legs like a fireman pole. Hilarious!!
Awesome story!! *high fives..um..high feathers ya* Thanks for sharing your feathered kids' story with us. It's amazing how well many animals can and do,adapt and thrive with loving feather/fur/fin parents;it's a testament of your love,care,devotion,and respect that you willingly adopted 2 special needs birds and are giving them the best years (hopefully decades) to come. May the Goddess bless you all with many unexpected blessings. Stay safe and be well.
Having been A fairly reputable breeder of African graze I can tell you from experience that it is the parents who become nervous and overpreen the babies. Unfortunately I did have a pair who did that and not only removed feet but wing tips also. Being a responsible breeder i separated this pair and made sure that they Would never breed again by keeping them myself in my large aviary. Kudos to the family that opened their life and their hearts to these beautiful birds.
Awwwwww❤
What a cutie 💗
Good luck & live a ling life 🦖🐦
Long*
Yes a ling life lol
@@Clown234-k1p 🤣
I bet the Karen's never have sent out something as HORRIBLE as u😉 I have n sure were not the only 2? My phone does it also!! 😊❤👊✌️
The sweetest thing I saw on the internet today ❤❤❤
Precious to say the least. I never knew that they chewed their own toes. I thought that was a birth defect. How resilient eh just bouncing about without a care in the world. As humans we empathize so much and feel sad but look how they can prove us wrong. Amazing video and thanks much for sharing this with us 😊❤👍
Absolutely, Thumper and Sammy's resilience is truly remarkable! 🦜💪 It's surprising how animals can adapt and thrive despite challenges. We're grateful for the opportunity to share their inspiring journey, and your kind words mean a lot. 😊❤️
Awe Thumper & Sammy are Miracle Birds 🦜🦜 Thumper likely keeps an eye on Sammy because they have no feet and don't fly. So Sweet they were adopted to a very loving owner 💕 anythings possible ❤ I just love them 💕
Aww what a trooper! Bravo baby.♥️💚♥️💚
It's so good that you took the two of them.
You are a wonderful caring foster fail❤ so glad you adopted both of them🙏🙏
They are str8 Gansta!!❤❤❤
Thank God they found you. I can't imagine what could have happened to them without you. ❤
Glad they found a caring home! It's also amazing how well parrots are able to use their beaks to move around, it's almost like an artform
He's soooo adorable & amazing!!! ❤❤❤
In the absence of his claws, his beak is his best limb.
The other thing is the way they walk reminds me of a channel I came across a few years ago of teen girl who lost her limbs due to illness. She had her elbows, and the way this bird can use their legs to hold on reminds me of that girl's way of holding things in her elbows. When anyone is detirmined enough, they can get around any disability, and I feel animals do it more easily because they don't have that voice us humans can have in our heads saying "Oh this is hopeless! I'm never going to work out how to function again!", animals just _do it_ and work it out.
humans born with the disability or acquiring it "in the nest", or rather as babies do tend to respond the same way these parrots have though, with just never knowing anything different, so never questioning it - at least not until society starts to tell them they are "different" & makes them feel ashamed of how they do things naturally
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Awww. I would take him without thinking twice.❤
Allah düşmüşe, gurabaya, çaresize, muhtaca yardım edenden razı olsun, sayılarını arttırsın, ecrini misli ile her iki cihanda versin, muhtaçlara ve onlarla ilgilenenlere her daim yardım eylesin, onları korusun, kollasın, her türlü ihtiyaçlarını, sıkıntılarını, dertlerini gidersin, hiç birini çaresiz bırakmasın, Bay Thumper, Bay Sammy, onların ailesine ve bu vesile ile tüm ailelere mutlu, huzurlu güzel bir hayat nasib etsin inşaallah (amin).
Sizler harikasınız ve dünyanın her köşesinde sizleri seven ve sizler için dua eden birileri hep var, iyi ki bu dünyada varsınız ve bu sevgi dolu anıları paylaşıyorsunuz.
God bless this little creature
Thank you for this vid. Learned something new today. Incredible bird
✌️☮️🖤🦜
Bless you and prayers ❤️🙏
Much love for your awesome kindness and compassion. ❤
Thank you for giveing these babys a new loveing home
every day is neck day haha
Poor babies. Thats not overzealous preening, it's self mutilation 😢 caused by severe anxiety, if not neglevt and abuse. They are lucky to land in such a happy and supportive home.
Great story. Please keep em coming ❤❤❤
They’re beautiful!❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🥰🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻💋💋💋🇺🇸🌸
Thank you for giving them a happy life. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
So cute! 🥰🥰🥰
Der arme Schatz . Er ist sooo großartig
I have a grey named Sammee. It's wonderful people like you exist in the world. Thanks for all you do. These birds are amazing but sensitive and require a lot of care. I love my girl so much. Happy holidays!
Thank you for your patience and loving these beautiful parrots.❤. A couple that would board my cockatoo had an African gray that chewed off his toes and they made and installed flat perches in his cage to stand on. They called him "Stubby".
How can you not be proud of this little guy!! He does better than us humans do!; Just AWESOME!!
Does better what?
Erhm .. humans are doing just fine without arms or legs ... heck some do without both. Plus then there the "fake" arms and legs you can get aswell if you prefer.
I dont really see what the parrot can do, that we cant :P
my parrot rescues disagree, they're really proud of their human mummy, who caters to all their needs from her wheelchair & they're so convinced their human mummy can do anything, that they happily take advantage of her being lower than them when in their cage & poo all over her & drop toys & food out of their cage all over the floor & anything & everything else they can think of that challenges their human mummy who cannot use her legs
I'm sure you mean well, but your comment is actually insulting to those of us with a disability, it's referred to as "ableist" to think that disabled people aren't capable of the same things as able body people can do, but to suggest that birds can adapt to disabilities & humans can't is kinda on another level of that, wouldn't you agree?
Just keep it in mind next time :) By complimenting parrots by comparing them to humans, you are actually insulting the humans you compare them to & say are inferior to the birds. Again, I'm sure that wasn't your intention, but just pointing it out, so you can become more aware :)
People are afraid of other people. I've been told that!! People will trust animals 100% more than humans!! I've been told that also. So don't try to chastise me about life. Honey?? You haven't had a life like mine!! So I appreciate that you don't reply to me AGAIN!! You don't have a clue about me!! Have a great night 🌃🌉!!
God bless U for caring for those sweet wonderful Parrots ❤
Thank you. Gorgeous.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He's the parrot which needs a pirate on his shoulder... 😅
Their feets are the cootest ever!!!! I briefly had a one legged African Crow…. And this is a much better situation since its even/bilateral.
Very touching. Thank you.
Oooo his look is perfect...they are precious..❤❤
Hat's off to you, taking Good care of that brave grey.
They still have their 2 yr old attitude.
Godbless everyone involved in this rescue 😊❤ awesome and beautiful
Thankyou ❤️
Wow not many people would do what you have done good for you I can see they are much loved and give love in return😀😀❣️❣️❣️❣️
I love a bird with no feet that prefers to walk!
their Lil feets look a lot like a high born 19th century Chinese woman. it's so lovely they have such a good family now.
You Are Amazing Human❤❤❤ I So Happy To See You All❤❤❤ And Your Babies Are Super Excellent nd Sweet God Bless You Alll❤
Glad they have a rad awesome cool exquisite beautiful home.
Oh my gosh what a sweetheart ❤️
Love love love, Thumper is smart, cool and fun. I have Greys myself.
Love Love Love, Thumper is smart, cool and fun. I have Greys myself!
My cockatoo has feet and he falls off his perch often. 😂. He always looks at you like you pushed him.
Sliding Fire Parrott 😅😅😅❤ so very funny 🙏
I wished they would have had her in their lives sooner, they are absolutely loved and adored now sweet bird babies ❤❤❤❤ thank you for sharing their story
I had a sun conure with one foot gone .... he was an amazing bird
Tiere sind einfach unglaublich. Die Optik ist denen immer egal. Nur die Funktionalität zählt. Und dieser Vogel hat es einfach raus. Trotz Behinderung hat er ein gutes Leben. Alles Gute kleiner Piepmatz 😘❤
Love Love Love, Thumper is smart, cool and fun! I have Greys myself
Just beautiful story god bless from Minnesota
Nature is incredible versatile.
Bless your heart.... animals are so worth it
I do not believe in keeping birds captive, however, these two gorgeous little birds are so happy. What amazing little survivors they are and it's so lovely to see them so well cared for💞💗🩷💕
Your compassion and understanding are truly appreciated. 🙏💖 We share your sentiment in wanting the best for all animals. Thumper and Sammy's resilience and happiness are at the forefront, and we're grateful to Jennifer for providing them with a loving and caring home. 💕🦜 Your kind words mean a lot to us, and we're glad to have you as a part of their uplifting journey! 🌟😊
It depends. A chicken or duck isn't so bad a along as you give it space. A captive bred, hatched and raised parrot can be kept in a large aviary
omg this bird is too funny xD
SOOO PREDDIOUS!🥰
African Grays are very intelligent. I know some people who have one & can carry on a conversation, just like a human does..
Sweet babies!
Imagine taking their wings away also jus as they did😂
😊 Omg, what for sweetie lovely Parrots ❤🦜🦜😍😘🍀🎍🎁🎅🌠🌌 Merry Christmas to all of you 🎄💕❤
Beautiful babies!
They are truly awesome ❤❤
