Is there a way for you to set up a video chat? Or something that can show you his home. Do you know anyone that lives close that can do a home inspection of sorts?
I am not saying this for any reason but for concern.
I have been involved in quite a few abuse/rescue/hoarding things in the past couple of years. People can say whatever they want, or act however they want. It doesn't mean it is true. I know your love your bird and I just want to make sure that she goes somewhere safe and is as loved as she was with you. People lie.
I totally agree w/ Danita in this situation. I'd feel better about your fid going to Hawk in this situation as I
know his birds get everything they need & more. You have to do what you have to do tho & I understand.
We are all just trying to protect your girl from some really bad things that can happen in a re-homing scenario's. There are some out there that try to get a re-home or adoption & actually torture birds. We're not trying to scare you or make you uncomfortable w/your decision we're just very concerned because of the stories that we've seen & read SO many times where SO many fids stories don't end in sunshine & rainbow's. There is a very good reason this thread is protected w/ every post, "mean people stink!" & it's ALL about protecting those that cannot protect themselves (fids).
