KALA & HURLEY
Kala and Hurley are a fun pair of 3 year old green-cheek conures. These birds are closely bonded and can be quite protective of one another. Hurley is a bit more reserved, whereas Kala enjoys a scratch on her own terms. They are caged separately since together, Kala will begin laying eggs almost immediately and they become quite defensive of their cage. These two enjoy flying around the room as they are VERY agile fliers, watching movies (without birds!), and they like to see you do chores. They’re great to watch on their own but they’d really love to be a part of a family WITHOUT other birds to interact with. They can be rather mean to others out of defensiveness so care will have to be taken.

EMILADE (EMMY)
Emmy is a presumed female 26 Year old Mitred hybrid (mitred x white eye?). She’s lived in her last home for 18 years, so initially had a harder time adjusting. She is choosy about her people, doesn’t like sun conures or similar and has gotten along fine with the cherryheads, green cheeks, and a cockatiel. Emmy really wants to find her person to snuggle with! She initially preferred men but just seems choosy of her people in general. She's skittish on the hand and doesn't want to stay in one place, usually hanging out on top of her cage and running away from us when we try to handle her. She loves horror films (especially the gory ones), TV show music, and wags her tail when she’s happy. She’s been plucked on her bottom half for a long time and will likely never regrow those feathers. We don’t care that she prefers not to wear pants. She’ll have to meet potential adopters a few times to build a bond.
Emmy is cleared for adoption, but will have to remain on a small dose (0.1mL meloxicam twice daily) of pain medication for the remainder of her life.

ANGEL & OMBRE
Angel (pictured above) is a 2.5 year old female dilute Green-cheek conure. She is hand tame but flighty right now, and seems to prefer women. She did not like the man in her previous home. She will sometimes nibble but does not mean badly. Angel is curious and very intelligent!
Ombre is a 2 year old male pineapple green cheek. He is much flightier than Angel, choosing when to interact on his own terms. If Angel is out being friendly, he will fly to your shoulder and start preening. He won’t step onto a hand but can be captured and put back into his cage when it’s time to go back. All in all they are both pretty gentle. Someone with time to dedicate to training them will allow them to thrive. Because they have already had chicks, we will be following up to ensure no more breeding will occur in their new home. These guys just want someone to hang out with or to join an existing flock.

GONZO
Gonzo is a blue-crown conure thought to be between 30-40 years old. He clearly has some wing issues, likely related to arthritis, but so far seems to be a pretty easygoing fella.

HOLLY & TRUDEE
Holly and Trudee are a 27 and 13 year old mother and daughter Cherryhead pair, respectively. They have lived wild in the small-bird aviary, and don’t want to be handled. They are devoted to each other and seeing them snuggled up together is heartwarming. This pair is a super thing to watch just acting like parrots, and that's the life I want for them. You must have a large free-flight aviary.
