Sweet Daphne is still waiting for her person. She has been here so long that she has chosen me and shown me that with dedicated time and attention she would absolutely be a ladies best friend.

With that being said, she is not bird friendly. However if she is in a home with other birds who stay on their own cage or in their own space she is fine. She does need a home with someone or her person home most of the time. She starts plucking for two reasons that I have noticed 1. If she is at all around Male eclectus and 2. If her person is gone for too long. She LOVES attention from you. She does have strong opinions about some people and I can’t pin point exactly what it is that sets her off. She just doesn’t like some people and with try to get them if they get too close. Otherwise she would absolutely be a very best friend to a lady who understands eclectus needs and hormones.

I apologize for the lack of updates the past week. As some of you know every year I am the main point of contact for sprinkler blowouts for my husband’s excavation company. It takes up A LOT of my time, we are finishing up our last week of blowouts and then I will be back on track here.

I’m grateful for our team who has been in contact with each other as well as helping with up coming surrenders and applications.

Still looking for homes We have multiple cockatiels, the senior trio who has been with us for many months now, two individual boys, and Daphne female eclectus is still in search of her person.

With me being away for a week we have not been as active sharing our goals. We have currently only raised $100 out of our minimum $1000 needed by the end of the month. Each month we have a sponsor goal that helps with everything needed for the care of our current and future intakes. The past few months we have been short, this month we are extremely behind.

If you would like to sponsor our current and future feathered members and help get us to our needed goal our Venmo and PayPal links are below. It’s only because of our incredible community that we can continue. ♥️

🦜INTRODUCTION POST 🦜

Yesterday we welcomed two cockatiels Bugsy & Lucky to WTFR.

Bugsy is a 2 year old sweet boy who can be shy to new people but warms up quickly. He is said to be an absolute sweetheart who loves to give kisses and be with his people.

Lucky is a 1.5 year old also sweetie as well but is a little more shy and timid at first. He loves to whistle back and forth with me but is still warming up to the idea of stepping up. He is known to bond closer to female humans than men.

They will be transitioning from seed to pellet while we get to know them better. They are not a bonded pair and not caged together.

We are in desperate need of sponsors to help get us to our minimum needed goal. We have been short the past two months with last month being $300 behind. I will carry that into this month’s needed goal which will be $1000 minimum needed. Monetary gifts help with any needed vet expenses, emergency savings for the unexpected, any supplies, grooming, the rescues storage rental, etc. As we are adding more fosters we may need to start purchasing a few more foster cages as well as more supplies to purchase and pass out.

If you would like to help sponsor these two and our current/future intakes. Thank you to everyone who continues to believe in our mission and loves on these birds 🙏.

🦜Birdie Spotlight 🦜

Moses is a special boy who needs a very patient and understanding home. We are unsure of age but guessing 30s given it looks like he has a wild caught band on. So far he has no interest having close interaction with anyone (male or female). From my understanding he was like this in the previous home as well where he was for 7 months. It’s unclear what his life truly looked like for most of his life. He does his airplane wings for us and talks whenever we are around as if he wants to be with you. But has yet to commit once you get close. I have been able to give him head scratches through the bars but he’s still a little uncomfortable with it. He loves to be in the middle of your daily life and maybe that’s all he will ever want, however someday he may branch out and decide he does want more physical loves. (It took our personal grey over 1 year to come out of his shell and bond and ours was far more standoffish and mean than Moses). Moses is a good boy who has lost his home and needs a stable and loving family who will not expect him to step up or bond anytime soon. But rather will love him for who he is. He loves to tell you good morning, goodbye, Hi Moe, WHAT!, HEY!, he also makes burp and fart sounds on occasion.

He is known to have stress seizures during big moves or life changes, however since being with us he has not had one since the first day. And he only had one in the prior home during his 7 months with them. He since has been eating chop, Harrison’s high potency pellets as well as daily probiotics and weekly calcium supplement (greys are more likely to have calcium deficiencies which could be a trigger for seizures.

Moses is a goofy boy with lots of personality. He’s not noisy, although he can scream like a little kid if he hears other kids rough housing. He mainly Meeps, and beeps and says “Hello” throughout the day as you walk by.

He has not had much interest in coming out of his cage.

We are starting his search for a home. If you believe you could be a good home for a bird who needs time and love please fill out an application here.

I have no words other than THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! We had a few people send VERY generous Amazon hauls to support our featured residents here at WTF!

I am always blown away by the support our community sends, whether that is a physical items, monetary or even kind words. Seriously this will help us get through some of the winter slump!

We also received $350 in monetary gifts that means we only have $450 left to meet our needed minimum monthly goal!

Thank you all so much for all the love you continue to show 🦜♥️

🦜INTRODUCTION POST 🦜

A few days ago we welcomed Moses aka Mo to WTFR. He is an assumed 33 year old Congo African Grey. He has only ever lived with females although we are not sure of his full past. His original owner passed 7 months ago, he since had been living with an another family before making the trip from Twin Falls to us. As far as we know he doesn’t know step up or at least has not stepped up for anyone in 7 or more months. Although not aggressive he is a very nervous boy and is known to have stress seizures. Moses is very hesitant of everyone new but doesn’t mind a good whistle back and forth.

His past diet was a full seed one prior to going to his last family. I have gotten him to switch to Harrison’s since arriving to our home. I will continue to update as we learn his personality, likes and dislikes a little more. As of now I can just tell you he is your typical spicy African Grey that hates all things new.

I would like to hopefully get him in to be seen prior to adoption. Just because he does have seizures. We also have one other bird due to see the vet before he leaves our care . We are desperately needing to hit our monthly goal. We are at $300 or our $800 minimum needed for the month.

If you would like to help sponsor Moses and our current/future intakes. Being a sponsor helps provide everything the birds need from food, vetting, supplies etc. Thank you to everyone who continues to believe in our mission and loves on these birds 🙏.
