Oh gosh, poor little guy. Someone or some people are letting these birds out! What the heck is going on with people? Thanks for the info --- This bird is safe and is staying that way. 😊Read More
Theresa Fox Gergela I saw one today in the BR section of Palm Coast. This is near Palm Coast Parkway and US1.
Obviously not the same guy :(. He flew over my yard and was chased off by a wild bird.Read More
Thanks, folks. He is doing well, just very quiet. Veronica, I have not heard from anyone yet. got him a platform perch for his cage and he seemed to like that. If you are interested, my cell is 904-874-6315. I'm sorry, I had an old Facebook account from years ago as I don't use it but I reactivated it so I could reply! I can't believe people just let them go. I'd keep him but I have 3 cats and I have to keep him in the back room with the door closed. He is a sweet little guy; he is missing nails on 2 front toes and I googled that, so I don't know what he's been through. He can fly and he moves around OK. He has a beautiful large cage, treats and food that I got and all that would go with him. There are no avian vets in Palm Coast, I discovered. I called 3 that were online but no go. I don't think he needs a vet now, but I suppose people who have birds have to drive elsewhere. Crazy that a city like Palm Coast is so short on veterinarians. Hope to hear from you!Read More

Thank you so much for taking care of this little one & looking for its family.
Create a safe space — Once you bring the bird home, set up a designated area where the bird can feel secure. Make the room quiet for the bird and keep out other pets since you don’t know what the bird’s home environment is typically like.
Provide food and water — Make sure the bird has fresh water and food. A clean bowl with water from the tap will suffice, and birds can eat bird seed, some fruits and some vegetables. Make sure to look up what birds can eat and consult a veterinarian or avian specialist for guidance.
Please hydrate first with water and make sure they are drinking. You may offer watery fruits/veggies such as watermelon, peppers (hot peppers will help with pain), cantaloupe, zucchini, honey dew, cucumbers, apples, kiwi fruit, cherries, pomegranates, lettuce, applesauce or offer berries such as blueberries, blackberries, raspberries or a sprig of millet for smaller birds such as cockatiels, lovebirds, parrotlets or parakeets.
Provide perches and toys — Birds get bored just like everyone else, so make sure to provide them with perches and some safe toys that can keep them entertained as you seek out their owner.
Avoid handling the bird excessively — Keep in mind that the bird may be stressed and that you don’t know how often they’re handled at home. Try to keep handling to a minimum, only doing it at essential times, like providing them with fresh food and water or cleaning the cage.
Consult a veterinarian — Schedule a visit to the veterinarian to have the bird checked for any health issues and to ensure they are properly cared for.
Here are some steps to follow when reporting a lost bird:
Contact local animal shelters and rescue organizations — Reach out to nearby animal shelters and rescues and provide them with a description of the found bird. If the bird has been reported as lost by the owner, they may already have the record on file. Otherwise, they will have the file saved if the owner does call.
Contact avian veterinarians and pet stores — Reach out to avian veterinarians in your area and provide them with the same detailed description of the bird. They may have clients who have reported a lost bird fitting the same description. Additionally, contact local pet stores and ask them to keep an eye out for anyone asking about a lost bird.
File a lost and found report — Typically, cities and towns have lost and found services for pets. Contacting your local animal control or municipal office will allow you to file a report. If an owner seeks their bird out through official channels, the report will be on file, and they’ll be able to contact you.Read More
If you cant find its owner I will gladly adopt it. Sometimes people let them go my neighbor had a pair and she said she didnt know they were loud and she let them go. They can live in the wild because they are domesticated it. Please keep me post it.Read More
