He was dropped off at our local pet store by his 2nd owner who could not handle his agressive behavior and his foul language (his mother was a trucker) he sat at the pet store for six months or better and every time me and my husband would go in to buy supplies for our other bird, we would stop and visit with him. There was just something very endearing about this little guy. We learned that he spent the first 5 years of his life in a cage small enough for a cockatiel. He was very cage aggressive and would attack the cage and scream if anyone got too close. After some time the pet store put him in the back of the store because of his language and bad bird attitude. After deciding to bring him home he allowed me and eventually my husband to get him out of the cage, something that was said to have been a small miracle by people who worked in the pet store. There was only one girl there willing to even try. He has been home with us since March 2006, and he is now a wonderful happy bird whose language is still colorful as ever but has also learned some new... more pleasant words. He comes out of his cage just fine now... he is actually quite demanding if we dont let him out fast enough. He tells us "out" while hes holding onto the door of his cage. We are still working on his "trust" issues, but things improve everyday. He is truly a joy... one of the best things I have ever done. He gives great kisses!. |

Please vot for marvin, he needs all the love you can send him. Thank you!! Come visit me, Captain Morgan, Marvin, Dewey, Erma & Keeva.

Hey again. I'd love to try. We would have to somehow get in touch with each other so we can cross reference and stuff like that. Personally I don't really know how to start a website. But I'm sure it's easy to learn. I think a lot of these Yellow collars on the site are second or even third hand pets. That could be part of the reason they're afraid of hands. It's sad to think that people would harm something so cute and small. I don't have problems with Emmie because I am his first owner. And I intend to be his last owner too. I'm so happy you think this is a neat idea!Come visit me, Coco, Emerald, Huey, Avi & Sunny.

Hey there silly bird! I am so happy to hear that you have a very good home now. I hate hearing these types of stories about bad owners. There is no reason why someone should mistreat their pet, may as well not even get a pet if your going to mistreat it. So I hope that you enjoy your new home and have the love that you really need. Take care. I am sending a vote your way.Come visit me, Sunshine.

WOW, I love your story too. Amazing people to do that for this bird. Poor little guy. YOU both are amazing . He looks so happy and my zazoo has that same big swing in his cage too :) And about foul language I WORKED real hard to make sure NO ONE has or will ever teach him that, and I explain why, not a good idea. I agree. Well you ARE both doing a great job with him :) And about Zazoo YES he was lucky to NOT have been among the other birds that were stolen etc. I couldn't beleive it when I went in the pet shop to get him more toys and saw the place had no birds! :( It was like a week after I got him. I still cannot get over it. So mean, all for the love of money. Like the shop owner had said they could of left them to anyone and he would of been ok with that. And about the hatch day, Yeah I still wish I knew. :) Come visit me, Angel Buzzsaw nickamed by mr.timRIP Mr.Tim & Asha) & Zazoo (RIP Mr.Tim & Asha ) :(.

Hi Sully t sounds like you found a wonderful forever home. We are happy for you, for sure. As for the potty mouth. Uzi is the King of Potty-mouths, but he learned it here. Mom had him before kids, so he was the big brother...and the boys and their frinds thought...hey, let's teach the bird to swear!!! He says F-you every day, we think that may be confused with thank you, lol. As for the Caiques...they are infectios, and even though We have Harley, there were three white belly's in the store, and if mom had the money, they would all be here right now!!! Voted for ya! ♥ HarleyCome visit me, XERXES, HOLLIE, RAINBOW, BIG BIRD, SKYY, HAROLD (GREATER VASA), MAUDE (GREATER VASA), SUMMER, HARLEQUIN R.I.P 9/07/09, SCRATCH & UZI.

Harley was glad to see that there are other yellow-collared macaws on here. We hardly ever see anything about them when we are looking for information. Knowing how lkoving he has become in just 7 months, it's hard to beleive that people abuse them and don't like them. Of my three birds (we have a pair of Sun Conures) he is definitely the most cuddly and fun. Thanks for visiting. Come visit me, Harley, Tinga, ApolloCome visit me, Tinga, Apollo & Harley.

Mom says it's not fair that you can only vote for one cool bird a day! Even though we know that we're the coolest, she loves a happy ending like yours is! We'll remind her to come back, don't worry! Come visit me, Freddy, Callie & Tiki.

Sully is so fortunate to have you taking such great care of him. I loved reading about every detail of his personality, how you met, and his quirks as well. He is a really special guy and quite handsome. Not to mention he sounds like a smarty pants! We had to stop by and give your birdie a vote. The world needs more people like you who are so understanding of another creature in need. Come visit me, Cherry, Parsley & Tiki.
