Avian Rescue Corp aka Cockatiel Rescue

Adoption Policy

Adoption Process:

Avian Rescue Corporation is a bird rescue with over 100 tropical parrots of various types. We recommend you visit to see the various types of birds and see which one seems to fit best with your desires. We have Macaws, Cockatoos, Amazons, Congo African Greys, Cockatiels and some others. We prefer a visit any time between the hours of 11:30AM and 2PM any day (we have no weekends nor holidays), just call a day or so in advance for an appointment. Our address is 1212 Saint Elizabeth Ct., Concord, CA.

Our adoption process is basically simple: you come in for an interview where we discuss your knowledge and experience with a bird, and then you get to meet the birds. Depending on the type of bird you are interested in, you may need to make several visits here to get into the bonding process with the bird. You then complete an adoption form, pay an adoption fee which varies by bird type (and is established by going on line and finding out the sales prices for that type of bird, then dividing it by 1/2). As an example, the adoption fee for a Macaw is typically around $700-750 (showing $1,400 to $1,600 on line). The bird is then brought to your home for a bird safe checkup and to see the cage the bird will be housed in. If everything is OK, then the bird is left and the process is complete.

Thank you for your interest.
