TO CHICKEN GEORGE'S OWNER: Posted on Lost and Found birds of the US https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1HD2pPajkZ/ Here are some ideas to assist in your search. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE, these guys tend to stay close to home for the first few days. Your bird will likely be silent as well, from fear- This makes them stop calling out even if you are right next to him or her. *During the daytime: use a wireless Bluetooth speaker to broadcast flock calls or your voice, shake treat bags or anything that might attract attention to food, put the cage out where it can be seen. These Birds can be good flyers, make sure you do a 25 mile radius of social posting in l n f pet groups. Your bird will be most active out searching for food at first light [dawn] and dusk so you need to be outside pre-dawn, NOTE: they roost in place overnight as they do not see in the dark *During the evening when searching is over, design & print off flyers with photo & contact information. These can be encased in a ziplock to keep weatherproof & posted in areas where allowed like parks, poles & any nearby gathering areas. Also drop off some at vet clinics, pet supply stores, anything within a 5 mile radius. Contact local shelters/rescues & even the police dept - they do pick up found/stray pets all the time. Make sure the world knows - neighbors esp ones that have bird feeders/baths/pools. Hand them out while searching the area. Join every local social media group there is. Run an ad in your local newspaper - some run one for free in lost & found (or cheap). Also check with local bird watcher groups - they’re always out & about. Flyers cannot be placed in mailboxes. *Create a post on Pawboost, NextDoor & Ring *PLEASE CHECK WITH LOCAL ANIMAL SHELTERS & FILE A MISSING PET REPORT* Angie - Moderator DFW Lost and Found Birds Parrots, Moderator Texas Bird Owners Lost and Found Page, Moderator Parrots 911, Administrator Lost and Found Birds of The US.,
