Why are you saying does this bird look like TRASH? Is this what the owners called it? Also, is the pix's taken in his owners home or yours? And I see no problem with the name Bug. I had a tiel called the Bug, which was short for June Bug, and I got tired of explaining his name to self-righteous people.

Can you educate and work one on one with the owners to help them understand the bird and help all have a better relationship with it?[/QUOTE have been working with the owners(on the phone)for about a month,thought all was going better then got a call last night that she was gonna throw her out if i didnt come get her ..she bit her owner BAD agian....the pics were taken at my house tonight after i got home,actually i like the name bug also:) i was thinking maybe she was named after a lady bug? she has been at her last home 2 yrs dont know before that

Yes...she looks like a Lady Bug...with those vibrant colors.

Maybe a one-on-one home visit might help...just to see how they interact with her. Even though the situation is frustrating to you it has to be frustrating to the owners and there must be some guilt that things got out of hand. Taking the bird from them, even though they religuish 9sp) it, just does not resolve the problem with the owners. Even though the bird will be gone it leave a very negative reflection to them in regards to birds overall. And if they ever get another bird, and don't understand some of the causes from the problems they perceive with the current birds they are more apt to repeat the same mistakes.

Bug is beautiful, Tanya, and I am certain much happier now. I bet she never had it so good.

why are so many birds having an horrendous beginning to their lives either through ignorance or sometimes people appear to enjoy inflicting the hurt and pain for their own enjoyment.? We either make a huge fuss of them and they are the lucky ones or there are the poor darlings who need to be rescued.:confused:

Dear Bug, you are in good hands now. In time you will come to learn that people do respect you and do try understand what your saying. Doesn't mean you will be allowed to run amuck, you will earn tools to live to co-exist in your enviroment - it takes time, all in time.

Bug welcome to your new life.

Bug will probably blossom in the right home and enviroment. Those people should never have another pet. They are true idiots in my book. :mad: Someone will discard them one day
