Hi, I just got a little Amazon with one leg-- please give me info on who made that leg for Big Red!!!! My amazon had a leg for 18 months and had an accident with a toy (previous owner wasn't home in time to save circulation). He is only 2 years old. Please email it to me or link it here. Smgbenedict@gmail.com. Thank you!!!!

Sarah, while it is a neat idea to check into, I want to reassure that many parrots live happy healthy lives with one leg and even no feet. You guy is lucky to have you and you him!

It is so amazing what is being done to help these guys. Some years ago there was a MM2 in Fl that lost both legs to mate aggression. Prosthetics were made for both of her legs.

I love happy endings. Prayers that this works well for Big Red.
