Meet Trixie & Peachie

Trixie and Peachie are parrots who lived in the same house, along with another parrot. They were all caged separately. Things were going fairly well, until their owner bought a puppy. She decided that she didn't have enough time for three parrots and a puppy, so she decided to get rid of these two parrots, who had spent years with her. While surrendering them, she actually said that she's got rid of these two because "they were disposable." Now, they are looking for homes where they will be loved and treated as the unique creatures they are, and not equated with garbage.

Trixie is a green cheeked conure. He's about four years old. He can be cage aggressive, but stepped up immediately on a towel-covered hand. He wasn't handled much recently in his last home, so we suspect he will be less nippy as he settles down into a loving environment. He has a lot of energy and keeps us laughing with the dancing he does.Peachie is about three years old. She is a bit flighty, but we suspect she will calm down once she is around loving people again. She loves playing with toys!These two parrots are now looking for homes. If you've been thinking about adding a lovebird or conure to your house, you'll want to meet these guys!
