He had many fans through the years-here is how his story began

Special needs Meyers in Indiana

Saw this today .. his feeties were chewed as a baby in the nest by the parents. He's hands off, just needs a soft place to land with someone who won't mind making some easy accommodations for lack of feet. Anybody? I can help with transport! small parrot

[macawpower58]

Knuckles was one of AA senior members. He was here with us a long time.
I do remember reading many stories when you first got him.

 

[Shezbug]

Oh no! I’m so sorry for your loss of Knuckles

 

[Sparkles!]

Bonnie, don’t cry, but I have a little story for you.

I remember finding Knuckles’s photo on here, saving it, and showing it to a patient (a little girl who had become a double below the knee amputee after a motor vehicle accident)-for encouragement. She is very young and wouldn’t willingly try prosthesis or attend her kindergarten class since the surgery. We showed her Knuckles and one of the nurses even had a beanie baby bird that she got to put on her shoulder if she used her prosthetics. We told her if a bird could climb without toes, a little girl could walk without ankles.
After showing her Knuckles, we searched and found many other good birds on the internet like Knuckles. I think it was knuckles, and those other “don’t tell me I’m handicapped” birds that truly made a difference in her outcome.

I’m so very sorry for your loss. I hope your sadness fades to only happy memories and smiles soon replace the tears.
