Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary WELCOME! Our Mission Statement At Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary we
are committed to providing care, love, time, devotion and a lifelong
natural habitat for unwanted, abused, neglected and non-saleable
parrots or for parrots that the owners are merely looking for a permenant solution for their bird, in order to have the peace of mind that their bird will not be in uncertain environments. Our one and only purpose is that of a rescue/rehab organization. Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary, Inc . is a non profit organization 501 (c) (3) (Established 2003) organization that is a unique haven for parrots. Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary, Inc. will
house and care for your bird in an optimum environment for the rest of
the birds life or we can adopt your bird into a monitored, secure,
loving home. (See "Placing your Bird" to the left) Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary, Inc. was established as a non profit in 2003 (501 (c) (3) exemption status) although we begun taking in unwanted parrots and personally funding their care for the last 15 years. We have been trained in Avian care by some of Florida's most prominent Avian Veterinarians and have countless hours of " hands on training" and experience in the Avian Veterinarian office. We take care of all the birds needs (ie nail trims, ect...) here on premise or have our Avian Vet come to us for anything more advanced. Through
the efforts of its staff, board members and the generous donation of
various company's and individuals we have been able to erect a 750 sq
ft 25' high "Macaw Parrot-ize" that currently
houses rescued Parrots who are free to eat , fly and chew, bath in
misters several times daily and interact with each other, living out their lives in a natural, healthy environment.
We have just completed the 10x20 flight that some of the smaller birds
can interact with one another. There is a great deal of expansion going
on at FEBS this summer so updating and new pictures and the
Newsletter is a bit slow but you will be able to see another great
environment for these beautiful birds that are adjusting nicely to
their new found home at The Sanctuary. We have found that this natural environment,
flight, fresh air and sunshine that is abundant here in
Florida, combined with lots of love and attention and
the proper diet has been instrumental in rehabilitating and/or
lessening the stress of leaving their previous homes and is key in
making the change over to "real interactive bird life" an easy, smooth
transition. We have not experienced ANY bird that did not totally enjoy
this newly found freedom!
Our
goal in the next five years is to be able to erect more large aviaries
and provide a permanent solution for med and small species of parrots,
while maintaining the care and upkeep of the birds already living at
the Sanctuary. Your help would be essential in meeting that goal.

Once again , Our Sincere "Thank you" for your interest in our love and passion for the happiness of these very intelligent, long lived, beautiful Parrots!!!
All the birds that have been placed with Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary have
come for various reasons including biting, screaming too loudly to be
kept indoors,sexual frustration,feather picking, aggression and
sometimes simply because owners really find that to make the
sacrifice to have their birds cared for in a Sanctuary type environment
opposed to selling their bird and not knowing their fate is in their
birds best interest. Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary, Inc. |
