Hello Amber -- I sorry you're having trouble finding good homes for your mom's birds. Are these the last two? I presume this grey is the one you thot you'd found a home for a couple months ago. I hope the right people come along for both really soon.

You might want to copy this into the forum called Bird Chatter. It has a little more viewers than this one, or the forums specifically for greys and amazons.

My best to you and the birds, Paca

Actually I have 3 left. The hyacinth as well. Thanks I am just trying to find the right home.

When I got my bird from Amber in Sept she said only had the Hy left.

From what I understand she's still accepting birds under her mother's rescue name and then reselling the birds. In fact, I didn't even know my bird was coming from a rescue until I found her advertising on here! I answered the ad on petfinder and was never told he was at a rescue until I called her on it.

All in all I love my bird but Amber wasn't truthful with me on alot of things. If anyone wants to contact me about Amber before you buy from her please feel free to contact me. I won't bash her on a public forum. I'm better than that!

Thanx featherfrantic for the insight I will look somewhere else for a grey

Junebug, since your Emmitt is just 5 months old, I hope you'll be waiting at least another year before bringing home a grey. Little Emmitt deserves to be the center of your attention as he grows up a bit, just as a human baby thrives when his parents focus just on him during his earliest years.

JMO but I hope you'll agree. We have so many wonderful years with our birds that it's a shame to rush the acquisition process.

parrontplus,I see that you leave alot of postings everywhere on this site and some of them you comment on without knowing anything about the person or the situation.On this posting you tell Amber you hope she finds homes for her MOMS birds.Well let me tell you after some research I have reason to believe this may be a scam,I repeat may be.Also you dont know me, my background in raising birds.I believe you are trying to do the right thing but maybe you should back off on some of these post if you dont know what the situation is.

I know our birds like being around others, hence why 11, take one out to groom and they all call for him/her. They do not need attention as infants do- they bond/develope better if they arent showered, that only causes problems. I have felt that Mother/Daughter thing was not on the up&up. I know after my Mom passed none of her birds would be placed other than where she wanted them, with us.

First of all Featherfanatic, The african grey is mine I didn't rescue her I decided to find her a home because I just don't have the time for her. She was my birthday gift from my mother. Second the Blue front was my mothers and I didn't want to sell her either but I don't have the time. I made a mistake in letting you adopt my bird.

And junebug you think this is a scam, before you open your mouth people you should maybe do your research. My mothers website is Bird Placement Program maybe you should go there and see for your self.

I made a mistake to come to this up at six website thinking it was a good place to get help but I was wrong. All that is here is mean bashing people.

I will never go to this place again.

And finally featherfanatic, You should get your facts straight before you open your mouth.

I told you I only had the macaw because it was true at the time I wasn't trying to rehome the amazon or my african grey. People change there minds you know.

So god help you all for bashing me.

Michelle Hatter which is featherfanatics has my blue and gold which I did tell her it was a rescue and if you don't give me my bird back because I thought you were a good home I will contact my lawyer for breaching the contract. Bashing me and lieing to people on here it is wrong. I want my bird back because you are not a good home.

I have said nothing that wasn't truthful. I am not publicly bashing anyone.

Amber-You have no proof that I'm not a good home and slandering me on a public forum must be bad for your "rescue" I would think.

Stop bashing each other. At least do it privately, and dont spread dirty laundry on here/internet. Tis the season to be Thankful, not Hateful! Well, I suggest this needs to be everyday practice and Karma, Ladies.

I just have a couple of thoughts/comments, no bashing of anyone.

I know after my Mom passed none of her birds would be placed other than where she wanted them, with us.

I think that it is unfair to expect a child to take care of a parent's bird(s) after the parent's death. Parrots can be a lot of work and are a huge responsibility. If the child already has parrots of their own or a busy life, s/he may not have the energy or the time to devote. If the parent had not made arrangements for the care of the birds beforehand, I think it is reasonable for a child to find good appropriate homes for the birds.

I don't know Amber, but apparently, she lost her mother and is still grieving. Please have a little compassion. As an only child, I will be devastated when I lose my parents.

if you don't give me my bird back because I thought you were a good home I will contact my lawyer for breaching the contract. Bashing me and lieing to people on here it is wrong. I want my bird back because you are not a good home.

Unless you are authorized to adopt out birds under the rescue (are listed as part of the governing board), AND this person signed an adoption agreement stating they would return the bird under certain circumstances, I do not think they have to give the bird back. Just because you do not see eye to eye does not mean they are not providing the bird an excellent home. If they love the bird, and the bird is happy now, do you really want to take it back out of spite?

Now for my little rant...

As far as rescues go, I see the need, but I also think some rescues need to be a little more realistic. I live in the middle of a state that doesn't have even one bird rescue. The nearest ones are 6-7 hours away. I've driven that twice to get two different cockatoos that were being rehomed. A couple rescues will not adopt to me because I do not live in their area, and one did not even have the courtesy to return my calls or emails. If I am willing to drive that far to spend time with a bird before deciding to adopt it, then why am I not a good candidate? I have been in contact with one rescue that is willing to adopt to me though. They know through the vet in their area everything I went through when one of my cockatoos was ill. (I drove my cockatoo 7 hours to a vet in their area. There was nothing that could be done because the brain cells at the back of her brain were dying.) Some rescues make it so difficult to adopt that it becomes easier to just buy a baby from a breeder. I still miss my sweet Too terribly. I have her huge cage in the garage for when I am ready. Whether I adopt from a rescue or get a baby from a breeder remains to be seen.

Okay, I got that out of my system. Well, kind of...

I don't intend to say anything more on the subject! I don't believe I was the one doing the bashing. If you feel that way, I apoligize! In fact, I told people to email me if they need mre info on MY experience with Amber.

I am sorry about her mother and I don't have any ill feelings toward Amber. I just wish she'd be a little more truthful.

I have found very few people to be "truthful" as to why I'd rather deal with animals than humans. Most will tell their truth, as we all know there is each side and the truth.
