I have a surrenderer who needs to give up her conure. This is a bird she rescued about 6 years ago from a horribly abusive situation, and now for her own personal reasons she cannot give the bird the time and attention it needs. I'm still not totally clear on what type of conure it is, she hasn't yet sent pictures, but she describes the bird as "green with a yellow and orange belly" so I'm guessing it's a Sun or Jenday? The rest of what I know about the bird at this point is: " ... 15 yr. old conure, Maggie. She is a great bird. I have had her for about 6 years. Unfortunately, prior to that, she was in an abusive situation. She also suffers from some problems with her claws - several are missing or malformed. Her nails had rarely, if ever been cut before I got her and I have attempted to work them back. They are still longer than they should be (and I am chicken about drawing blood). She is fine in her cage but has difficulties keeping her balance on your arm. She doesn't scream but loves to jabber, play with her bell and throw food to the dog." The surrenderer is taking Maggie to the vet today and will be faxing in her health report along with the surrender docs. I'd love to get a foster home lined up for Maggie - one that can give her time and attention, provide for her disabilities, and help her to be comfortable coming out of her cage. Her current mom really does love her, but really can't give her the time and attention she needs. Please let me know if you'd like to give this little one a new lease on life.
