I have great respect for anyone who does this type of work.
Far too many people acquire animals that they aren't able or willing to take proper care of, and parrots have very long lives.
- duxup 1y agoAgreed, I respect those folks a lot, not exactly a high paying job / seems like a very personal calling kinda job. They also get to know the birds in a very personal way it seemed. One bird was "upset" with one of the handlers so she didn't want to participate when we met the birds that day. Apparently that handler had broken up a fight between upset bird and another that morning. Upset bird took that personally. At the same time upset bird didn't want to miss out on meeting everyone so she came along with two other birds who met us.... upset bird just sorts of sat on the periphery and made sure that everyone knew she wasn't participating. She wanted folks to know she was there, but was not going to perform.
