I wish they will find good homes, too.

The tiels look beautiful and the cage is nice too. Hope someone adopts them into their loving homes.

Awww =[ That poor Alexandrine Parrot... after being in a home for 20 years and now they give him away... it's like giving away your own son/daughter. So sad....

That is a nice-looking cage, except for the fact that it's way too small for two tiels. They look so cramped.

I will never understand why so many people give up their birds. I see it there, too, on the online auction site. They give them up, or sometimes offer a trade for another pet.

I really wish it was harder for people to get birds as pets. People see them as disposable and they often don't get the same kind of respect as dogs and cats.

I will be the first to admit, I gave up two keets one time, but never again. I've learned so much since then and I know what birds I can and cannot take on.

So sad to see these kinds of ads. When I see them locally, I often want to make them feel guilty for giving up their birds, but I know it will make no difference.

I wouldn't get rid of ANY of mine for all the money in this state. N E V E R !!!!

I saw an add this morning for a macaw for sale for $500. Someone offered a trade for a 1990 Ford Bronco.

**teddygirl** · 10-12-2008, 09:59 AM

Holy crap...where do you find these ads? I have been browsing craigslist and all that...but all I come up with is some cages.

**Katana** · 10-12-2008, 02:59 PM

I know... that poor alexandrine... 20 years with the same family, and no idea where he's going next...

Teddygirl- lots of times you'll see a cage advertised, and then click on it, and it says "cage comes with two free parakeets -good pet for a small child"
It might just be my area too, though... there are a lot of adds that say "cockatiel for sale" or "four budgies for sale"... ect. ect.

**TielBudgieGirl** · 10-15-2008, 12:22 AM

I skim Craigslist from all over the place, and I have seen alot of Cockatiels being kept in those small cages. D:
