Merve and Harpy Parrot Cockatiel Alexander, NC

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.

Merve and Harpy cockatiels (4 and 3 years old respectively) need a new home because their family is moving and adopting children. We just introduced them to some bok choy, and they said yes! They are good fliers, as most cockatiels can be even with clipped wings. So it's important to watch out for doors opening, pots on the stove, ceiling fan, toilets, fans etc. It's especially important when the little ones like to sit on your shoulder, and then you forget and walk out the door, yikes!

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.
