What Sacrifices Do We Make To Rescue Pet Birds?
S***h writes
Dear Mitch, I was glad that you put that sick animal abuser in his or her place when you responded to the “Duct taped Cockatoo” post.
I once rescued a poor blue and gold that was up in a tree for three days.
Its owner was absent and I believe that she was mentally ill, but that’s no excuse for the perch that I found on the apartment property that had lots of duct tape where the parrot perched and the amount of neglect that I saw that the poor Macaw had been through.

Is There A Smaller Micro-chip Available For Small Birds?
LL (G2MomPerson) asks
Is there a smaller micro-chip available for smaller birds like a Goffins Cockatoo or Cocktail?
I asked my avian vet & she wasn’t aware of a smaller chip for smaller birds/animals.
If there is a smaller chip, what is it called & who makes it?

Is There A Hormone To Calm My Over Sexed African Grey Parrot?
I have had my male African grey parrot for 28 years.
When he matured sexually years ago he started plucking.
I have him on a plumage supplement now and he has lots of new quills and looks much better.
However, he humps my arm with a thick sweater on.
He goes to completion if I let him once a day.

Does Anyone Out There Clean Their Perches With Peroxide?
Lee asks
Hi Windy City,
Does anyone out there clean their perches with peroxide?
Is it safe?
I’ve tried various surface cleaning methods followed by baking.
Most recently, after cleaning off loose debris, I soaked in bleach water, then steamed with a brush attachment.
During a cold spell, so I did this indoors.
