Arnold Parrot Quaker Parakeet Fairfax, VA

The best way to learn more about our birds is to complete our parrot match application, found under the "Adoption" tab on our website, www.phoenixlanding.org. The nice volunteer who monitors PetFinders inquiries cannot tell you about specific individuals.

Arnold has been eating Harrison's pellets, lots of veggies, and some fruit as treats. His favorite foods are banana, watermelon, peppers, squash, and Nutriberries. He’s still pretty reserved, but he likes to be around people and chat with them. It's ok if a bird prefers some personal space. We do not know how old Arnold is, he came to us from a shelter.

Quakers are also known as monk parakeets, and they are illegal in some states (e.g. GA, PA). They are entertaining to watch!

Our process: After you complete our online core class (recommended for anyone!) you will be connected with the adoption coordinator for your area. Attending one of our core parrot care classes is also required in order to adopt a parrot. A list of them may be found at https://www.phoenixlanding.org/events.html. Those classes that count as part of the adoption process are noted with an icon beside their title.

Phoenix Landing offers educational classes and facilitates parrot adoptions in Maryland, D.C., Virginia, North Carolina, and northern Florida. Phoenix Landing does not ship birds.

Thanks for helping parrots!
