I am posting this for a friend. Please do not message her unless you are the perfect home and willing to prove it. These birds will not be shipped.

If interested PM TMS

I am looking for the right home for my 2 African Greys Corkey and Lucy. I have had both of them since 2007 and I discovered about 2 years later that I was allergic to their dander. Over the years it has progressively gotten worse, now if I cuddle with Corkey I have to do a breathing treatment right after. They will not go to a rescue or a home with many other birds. They have had their own room since day 1 and I would prefer that they either have the same or if not possible, a double macaw cage. This is EXTREMELY hard for me, I would love to write all about them but as soon as I start the tears flow. If you would like to know more about them and think you could be the right home, please message me about you and I will give you my phone number so I can tell you all about them. I am located in Fraser MI and prefer someone local to me. I do have videos of both here https://www.youtube.com/user/tstuetzel/search?query=Corkey%20Lucy Thank you

Hi Theresa,

I'm feeling a bit foolish because I can't seem to figure out how to PM you, but I'm in Michigan and am interested. My birds don't quite have their own room, but I work from home and they are set up in my office. They get free roam whenever I'm home, which is all day most days. I have an elderly sulphur crested cockatoo (exact age unknown) and a 30 year old CAG.

Feel free to PM me (or if anyone can give me tips on how to PM someone, I'll PM you) if you would like to chat more!

You need to have a minimum post count to be able to start PMing :)

Otherwise here is the tutorial: How To: - How to start a conversation / pm

Hi Theresa:

I do not want to spark false hope as I can intimate how hard this situation already is but I want to mention something that has helped me with my allergic reactions: Google Histamine Intolerance and also Google Anti-Histamine Diet. Following the protocols outlined had significantly (though not completely) reduced my reactiveness to allergic triggers. Perhaps it’s worth looking into. Wishing you all the best. Isabelle.
