For those that don't know me, I have 3 cockatiels who are Hurricane Charley rescues from 2004. A good friend of mine with FWCAS rescued 25+ birds. After 3 yrs, lots of good nutrition, a safe enviornment and love, they are just starting to act like pets again. I am also active in Florida West Coast Avian Society www.fwcas.org and their new Rescue. In the past, I have fostered 2 IRNs,Tinkerbell and Poppi, who now have great new forever homes.
Since then, I have fostered Shrek, a Quaker and Fiona, a maroon bellied GCC, who lived together for 20 yrs and were dropped off at the pound
when their people decided to retire to Mexico! I ended up adopting both of them.
Then, I fostered Chelsea, an Orange Wing Amazon, who was a delight but within two months was adopted by friends of a friend of mine.
My involvement with rescues led me to develop a healthy, mostly organic treat/toy that morphed into a new business, BIRDIEBREAD™ Cones and Muffins which will soon be available in some specialty pet stores for the FIDS of Indulgent Parronts, but is, currently, available directly from my website or ,occasionally, on Ebay or Craigslist. I am a vendor at lots of shows and fairs in FL but will be expanding to GA and NJ this year also-so I hope to meet some of you in person! Isn't it amazing what fostering a few fids can lead to??
