And do NOT have to live in cages all day. Realizing the need for correct parrot care and education of these awesome feathered friends, seeing the desperate cases of neglect and abandonments, is how Brainy Birds was Hatched !! At Brainy Birds we are dedicated to the well-being of all species of companion parrots. We are a small organization. Our Parrot rescue facility is equipped to handle a few parrots at any given time including those with special needs. We support them mentally, physically and provide them with lots of freedom, excellent food, foraging material and lots of mental stimulation; they live in a beautiful garden with lots of climbing and open areas to enjoy their lives as birds. We have them tested for diseases and checked out by our Avian Vets regularly. We specialize in working with larger Parrots such as Macaws, Cockatoos, African Greys, & Amazons but have experience working with nearly every species of parrot kept in captivity, which includes many of the smaller species such as Cockatiels, Conures, Lories, Lovebirds, Parrotlets, & other small hookbills. It is of utmost importance to us that each Parrot who comes through our doors and is rehabilitated and ready, to eventually find a loving home where he or she will be given the individual attention needed to maintain a happy & healthy life. Pet parrots are kept all over the word & every one of them relies on their owners to give them the care they need to thrive. Education of these magnificent creatures is essential & we make it our goal to be readily available to offer our knowledge or services whenever needed. If we can help you to take better care of your bird or if you need us to care for your bird because you cannot, we are honoured to do our part. Each bird that comes to our Parrot rescue facility becomes part of us & we want our friends to feel like they are part of the flock too, whether you are interested in surrendering, adopting, volunteering, want to learn, or are just plain into parrots. Please feel free to inquire about setting up Brainy Bird educational seminars at schools and events so that the public can benefit from what we have learned.
