Fiona and Dexter

This is what we know:

Fiona and Dexter are a sweet bonded pair who have been together since 2019. Fiona is a Senegal Parrot, and Dexter is a Meyer's Parrot. Both are around seven years old and share a close connection, often spending their days perched side by side or exploring their favorite toys together.

Fiona is the more sensitive of the two. She can be shy and occasionally plucks her feathers, something that tends to happen during times of stress or change. Once she feels secure, she relaxes, plays happily, and lets her feathers grow back in. Dexter is a calm and steady presence, happiest on his favorite shelf perch or playing with rope orbs and colorful wooden toys.

Both parrots enjoy a diet of fruitful blend pellets, fresh morning chop, and the occasional shelled pistachio. They can be handled when they’re in the right mood and do best with patient, gentle interaction on their own terms.

Fiona and Dexter are looking for a loving home that understands the needs of bonded parrots and will give them the time and trust to build a connection. With consistency and care, they will reward their person with quiet affection, companionship, and the joy that comes from earning the trust of two devoted little parrots.

***Information that is universal to every bird:

1) Birds are typically not family animals. They usually choose a favorite and at best you can expect them to tolerate everyone else.

2) Birds are not great with kids, dogs, other birds, and are not cuddly with everyone, nor can they really be trained to be. Birds are flock animals, who are social creatures that need to be in a communal area where they can see the rest of the family, or you may eperience serious vocalization and behavior problems. We’ve never met a bird who is great with kids, but we have met kids who are respectful of birds.

3) Birds bite. But, you shouldn’t “take the bite”. If you’re getting bit, you haven’t earned the trust of the bird, and are pushing the bird past his/her limits. You must figure out what the bird needs, and make what you’re asking of the bird more attractive than what they are already doing.

4) Birds are not “dominance” based creatures. Your only option for birds is to earn their trust. If they are, say…on top of a cage and don’t want to come down, that is where they feel safest, not a dominance thing. They are not trying to exert dominance, they just don’t want to come down. Your job as a parrot owner is to figure out what you can do to help them trust you, and whatever you are asking to be more attractive than what they are already doing.

5) NEVER send money over the internet for adoption with any individual or organization for the adoption of an animal you have not met in person. That is almost always a scam.
