Guest guest Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 One woman...I'm going to have to learn to sign my posts here, I'm used to posting on parrot lists where they know me. Yes, most are sanctuary birds that had no place else to go, and my avian vets sometimes talk about " macaw hospice " because I will take in ones that are extremely old, or who have serious medical issues. Most I've had here at one time was 37, but 5 belonged to a Marine who was deployed, so they went home when she came home. In a message dated 6/26/2011 2:29:45 A.M.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I agree its all relative. We all would rather opt for the most successful and least limiting results when possible. Reality sometimes can go in a completely different direction for some of us though.
