Sunny
Female Indian Ringneck
Hello there. My name is Sunny. I am a really beautiful ringneck parakeet. My previous owner died so I came to the Haven to find a new home. I'm very shy until I get to know you and then I will very slowly come around to more attention and love from you. 
However, I don't like hands... they scare me. No one knows just how old I am.
The adoption fee for Sunny is $225.00
Sponsor Sunny for $35.00 per month.
Ditto and Mango
Male and Female Green Cheek Conures
Mango and Ditto are 8 year old Green Cheek Conures. We call them Mango-Bling and ditto-au-Natural, because Mango has an ID band and Ditto doesn't. In their prior home, they lived with 2 dogs, but we don't know how much actual contact thy had with them. They have shared a cage all their lifes and although Mango is a bit bossy, they enjoy cuddling together and they sleep together in their happy hut.
The "twins" were rarely noisy in their previous home. Usually they just tried to get a word in when their owner was on the phone in the same room speaking to someone ELSE! Their owners dealt with it by leaving the room or talking to them or turning on the TV or music.
Green Cheek Conures in general aren't known for being really noisy. At the Haven and in their foster home, Mango and Ditto mostly chirp and squeak. Their prior owner reports that they talk just a little, saying Where's Cam? Where's Daddy? and "I'll be right back". Too cute! From their paperwork its not clear who says what. We haven't heard any of this at the Haven ourselves, but it IS a bit noisy in the bird room!
They both enjoy baths in their water bowls, and Mango sometimes enjoys a spritz of water from the sink faucet. Mango loves to lay on his back in your hand, and will sometimes go to sleep there. Ditto is very shy. She doesn't seem comfortable being held or touched, except that she loves to cuddle with Mango.
Their favorite treats are strawberries, apples, oranges and millet. When let out of their cage for play time their owner just opened the door and let them out. Mango would step up to go back inside and Ditto could be told "in your cage!"
Since they have each other Mango and Ditto may take awhile to warm up to you, and Ditto may never learn to cuddle, but they are very cute to watch and are eager to find their new home. Could you be patient enough to win over this twin set of feathered cuteness???

Gus
White Bellied Caique (Female)
Gus is very energetic white bellied Caique. She (yes- we call her Gussy) is able to be handled easily, however, we've found that she does have her favorite folks and if passing from person to might decide she doesn't want to transfer to the other person and will ultimately bite. Gussy is full of spunk and energy. She is quite the beauty and loves to show off her colors.

Jade
Solomon Island Eclectus (Male)
Jade is a an approximate 16 year old (DOB May 2003) that has been with the same owner his entire life. He lived with several other birds but wasn't always friendly with them. He is typically a great bird, but does have moods where he bites without warning. He has been leash trained but need someone very patient to get him used to this again. The leash used was from (www.leathers4feathers.com).
He has always been on a very good diet.. fresh fruits and veggies as well as nuts and sprouted seeds/legumes. He eats an organic pellet called TOPS as part of the whole food diet. Eclectus parrots digestive tract is very different from other types of parrots and need berries and fruits more than the other types of fruits.
Jade can be a super addition to just the right family.

Chester
Solomon Island Eclectus (Male)
Chest
er is an approximate 19-year-old Male Eclectus. He, as you can see has a plucking issue. His previous owner said that he was fully feathered until the owner started working too many hours away from the home. This stressed Chester out and he started plucking. We do see feather growth so believe in the right environment he will feather out again. Like most Eclectus- he loves to eat. As soon as you give him his food bowl you will hear cute little noises that let you know he is really enjoying his food. Chester is very sweet and just wants Elenora Cockatoo (Thought to be Male)someone that can share their with him.

Lovie
Sulphur Crested Cockatoo (Thought to be Male)
Hello. My name is Lovie. I am fairly sweet, however, just like 
many other birds, I take my pick on who I like and who I don't. There have been a couple of people that I showed obvious dislike to... both men. I am really loud, so please make sure that you can tolerate noise if you take me home... my last adoptive home wasn't quite so willing. I also have an over-preening problem. I don't really pluck my feathers but I do preen and chew on them.

The adoption fee for Lovie is $550.00.
Einstein
Elenora Cockatoo (Thought to be Male)
Einstein is a (presumably male) Eleanora Cockatoo who turned 11 on April 25 of this year. Einstein's {former) foster mom wrote this loving note about him:
Einstein is a happy little guy, and like most cockatoos
loves people, both men and women! When a new person comes into his home he becomes very talkative and flirtatious, and comes to the front of his cage for head scritches.
Unlike most Cockatoos he is very timid and shy when it comes to new experiences, like new food or toys . . . the slower the better when introducing new things. Einstein's greatest love is food. He spends most of his time either foraging or playing with toys. He loves his pellets and chop, and will scream if his bowl is empty. His favorite foods are peppers, kale stalks, sugar snap peas, carrots, pasta, almond butter, nutriberries, kidney beans, brussel sprouts, blackberries and home-made birdie banana bread. He loves to forage out of chinese finger traps, his foraging skewer, clear plastic easter eggs, coin rolls, acrylic foraging toys, bottle caps, and coffee filters.
His favorite toys are birdie bagels, soft wood blocks like balsa, rubber duckies, and a drilled PVC pipe with rope and plastic pieces. Einstein has a good vocabulary but is relatively quiet for a Cockatoo. He says "Hi" and "Whatcha doin?" the most, and never fails to let us know when it's bedtime by saying "goodnight" repeatedly until put to bed. He has a series of soft whistles he does when it's time for mom to get out of bed in the morning. His previous owner had a dog named Sparky, so he is used to dogs. When the dogs get very excited Einstein will bark along with them, and call out "Sparky!!!" He recently learned a new phrase "That's a good boy!"
Einstein loves to be petted but is not used to stepping up, and is frightened of the step-up stick. He likes to spend time out of his cage on a boing that hangs from the ceiling.
Einstein is full of personality, and would love to find his forever home. Maybe that could be you!
The adoption fee for Einstein is $550.00.

JoJo
Sulpher Crested Cockatoo (unknown)
Hello. My name is JoJo. No one knows much about me. I was actually FOUND at a pond playing near the ducks. I am very friendly and seem to have been well cared for, however, I tend to scare people because I move quickly. Just like most cockatoos I can be very loud and try hard to get your attention.
The adoption fee for Jojo is $550.00.

Rusty
Hello. My name is Rusty. I am an approximate 20-year-old Green Wing Macaw. I'm doing very well at the Haven, although not quite ready to trust everyone yet. This will come once I have more time to adjust. I do sometimes step up for De.
Please be patient--- as De and the rest of the Haven team want to make sure I'm well adjusted to go to a new home so it might be awhile before you can actually take me home but please let De know if you are interested in giving me a new home. My previous owner took the best care of me that he could but he was sick and had a hard time giving me what I needed. That's why I'm at the Haven. I look forward to being able to go into my new home soon.
The adoption fee for Rusty is $675.00.

Isabelle
Catablu Macaw Female
Hello. My name is Isabelle. I am an approximate 
12-year-old Catablu Macaw. A Catablu is a cross between a Blue /Gold macaw and a Catalina Macaw( which is a cross between a Scarlet and a Blue/Gold). Unfortunately, I've got some health problems that will take awhile for me to get fixed but the good folks at the Haven are making sure I get what I need.
When I came to the Haven I was taken immediately to the avian veterinarian because I had large tumors on my chest, lower body and vent area. The vet said I was extremely OBESE and would need to be put on a diet. She said that the tumors were most likely benign- but that if I lose weight too quickly I could get liver damage. She estimates it will take me about 9 months to get to my accurate weight.
One of the tumors needed to be removed immediately because it was infected. The surgery was successful. I finished taking my medication to make sure it doesn't get infected. Now I just need to wait to see if the new diet will help the other tumors shrink.
My previous diet wasn't very good so I'm having a bit of a hard time learning to eat the good food that the Haven is providing. If you want to send me some PECANS this is my favorite nut and I'm allowed several of these every day. 🙂
Please be patient--- as De and the rest of the Haven team want to make sure I am well enough to go to a new home so it might be awhile before you can actually take me home. Please let De know if you are interested in giving me a new home.

Chico
Blue and Gold Macaw (Thought to be Male)
My name is Chico. I've been at the Haven before. My most recent adopter had to bring me back because he got sick and his wife couldn't take care of me and him too. I'm really a good boy... just a bit scary if you are afraid of big beaks. De says I'm a big-ol' bluff. 🙂 I've settled down quite a bit since I first came to the Haven in 2012. Perhaps my second home helped me learn to be more gentle.
I'm looking for my new friend. I typically bond best with one person- but learn to tolerate others in the home fairly well too. I promise I'll try to be nice to everyone if you'll just give me a chance.

The adoption fee for Chico is $600.00.
Lady Tex
Catalina Macaw (Female)
Hello. My name is Lady Tex. the good folks at the Haven know very little about me because I came from an animal control. It is reported that someone found me and turned me in there. My Haven family tried to locate my owner but had no luck.
Since coming to the Haven they have discovered that I can say Hola, hello and other things. 
I'm probably going to surprise them with several other words before I leave here. I love to talk to all of the volunteers as they work... they are very entertaining. They say I'm entertaining to them too. While I miss my previous family, I have grown to love the birds and family I have here. I do miss having my very own "person" and hope to have someone adopt me to call me their own. Please consider adopting me into your home.

The adoption fee for Lady Tex is $575.00.
Lucy
Scarlet Macaw (Female)
Hello. My name is Lucy. I am an approximate 
4 year old Scarlet Macaw. I've lived in 2 homes prior to coming to the Haven. Not because I'm a bad bird... far from it. I'm a great bird. My first owner was allergic to my dander so he had to find me a new home. My second owner loved me very, very much but due to her work schedule she wasn't able to spend enough time with me. Without a lot of time and attention I became bored... this made me scream A LOT. I also started to barber my feathers. She tried to do the best for me and decided the best was to help me find a new home that could give me more time and attention.
I eat a varied diet... nothing I don't like. I also love to chatter. I say such things as birdie, step up, wow, ah-ah-ah (when I tell her no), water and what? She also loves to mumble.
the person who tries to adopt me needs to have plenty of time for me so that I can get lots of attention. I will need to have a very large cage and also be allowed out on a tree perch often. I am leash trained as well... love to go outside.
