Daytona's Story

Daytona is a independent Severe Macaw. She had been found outside flying around years ago and the woman that found her brought her to us. She's a bit handicapped in that she's missing most of her toes, don't let that fool you..she can fly, climb, perch very easily. However, she is not a cuddly bird, she's still a bit afraid of hands but is learning to take treats from her foster home mom. <br/><br/>Her days are filled with flying around, buzzing anyone that walks in, hanging out in front of the window, eating other birds food if given a chance. She is a foodie at heart especially for the good stuff like almonds, walnuts...She is not a picky eater and will almost everything given to her. Her diet consists of fresh foods, sprouts, pellets, nuts, birdie bread. <br/><br/>Toys are a must, she likes to chew on wood blocks, cupcake wrappers, coin papers with almonds hid in them. Of course shredder toys are a plus as well....who doesn't enjoy shredding napkins! <br/><br/>She needs a home with no dogs or cats and where she can fly around. She doesn't show well but given the opportunity she would still make a wonderful pet. <br/><br/>Daytona is in her foster home in Ridgefield, CT. <br/>if interested, first step is to complete our online application @ahelpingwing,org<br/>several visits required<br/>adoption fee applies

A Helping Wing Parrot Rescue's Adoption Policy
The first step in our process is to complete the online application on our website at ahelpingwing.org After I receive, we will be in touch to review your information and with any questions we may have. There are multiple visits required to interact with the bird you connect with. Your first visit is what I compare to speed dating, you will meet many wonderful and sweet birds and we see who you connect with, attention is paid for how birds respond, we base our adoptions on the birds input and tell all adopters that when we let the bird choose, it's always a good match! During the visit time frame, we typically perform a home visit as well. The home visit is a great chance to review bringing home a rescue bird, where to setup cages, dangers in the home that many people may not consider, diet, daily routines, etc.
