The Phoenix Landing Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit all-volunteer organization. It was established to promote and protect the welfare of parrots through adoption, education, and refuge. Almost every bird, from the smallest to the largest, from the most loved to the most neglected, will need a new home someday. Probably several new homes.  People's lives change, often unexpectedly. One day your bird may need a good new home too.  Please consider adoption first!

PHOENIX is a female Alexandrine Ringneck, age unknown. She loves to take spray baths and enjoys her mashes and fresh foods. Her favorite toys are all shiny and she would do just about anything to get her beak on something blue. She has a very sweet and active personality, and truly loves to be part of the family.

COCKATIELS We always have many cute cockatiels for adoption, and often they are already in a group or pair. Cockatiels are especially flock oriented and truly appreciate having a buddy to keep them company.  To prevent breeding, you can keep groups of males or females.   Like cockatoos, their genetic relations, cockatiels appreciate a regular schedule, with up to 12 hours of sleep each day, just as they would have in the wild. This can prevent excessive egg-laying and other problems. Cockatiels also appreciate fresh greens and grains. Try giving them a small container of wheat grass (with organic soil) set in a food bowl, they will enjoy foraging and clipping small bites. Or grains such as kamut, which you can feed dry, soaked, sprouted or undercooked (about 30 minutes).  Other healthy grains for small birds include millet, oat groats, buckwheat, flax and sesame seeds. 

JERRY is a six year old green cheek conure, sex unknown. He  came from a loving home, but a change in work schedule meant that Jerrry's family could no longer give him the time he deserved (the most common reason birds are relinquished to us). He is on a pelleted diet, and enjoys fresh food like celery leaves, broccoli and pears. His foster family have helped with 5 parrots in the past, and say that Jerry is the best behaved one yet. But any bird can learn to bite. Caregivers much watch body language, understand personal space and have realistic expectations. Jerry loves bells and mirrors and sleeping in his fleece tent, and loves time spent out of his cage.
