Rio Parrot Quaker Parakeet Jacksonville, FL

Rio is a young male quaker parakeet that was found outside with a broken wing. His finder surrendered him to Phoenix Landing to get the medical care he needed. His foster says he hasn’t met a toy he doesn’t like, and loves giving kisses. His favorite toys are ones with seagrass, but he likes any toys he can destroy. He’s a great eater and enjoys Zupreem natural pellets and chop.

Before we can discuss a specific bird with you, we ask that you follow our adoption process. Some birds are in foster homes that may adopt them, many other birds are waiting for our help and are not yet posted in PetFinders. The adoption coordinator in your area will work with you to find the best home for each bird, and a species and personality that works best for your family too. We want to set everyone up for success, especially our parrots.

To get started, the adoption process includes completing our parrot match application and attending one of our core classes. You can find information about this process on our website at www.phoenixlanding.org/adopt

AREAS OF OPERATION: Phoenix Landing serves only Maryland, Washington D.C., Virginia, North Carolina, and northeast Florida. We do not ship birds. However, everyone is welcome and encouraged to join us for our online events. Parrots are unique and they deserve us to be informed caretakers. There are also many past event recordings available which you may find helpful. All event information can be found at www.phoenixlanding.org/events

Thanks for helping parrots!
