**We are not currently taking in birds unless they are an emergency basis such as moving, losing your home, or severe behavioral problems as we are full**
The Bird Nerds Rescue and Sanctuary is dedicated to the Rescue, Rehabilitation and Adoption of domestic parrots. Positive reinforcement, as well as enrichment items are used to curve and correct behavioral problems and turn unsocialized parrots into adoptable companion parrots. We will find birds loving homes, and find them any medical attention they need. If you are having a baby, moving, or just can't take the screaming, The Bird Nerds Rescue is available to you. We also provide a bird sanctuary for birds not eligible for adoption.
We do NOT take in Wildlife!
We are unable to take in wildlife, due to the safety and licensing of our rescue.
If you have found injured or abandoned wildlife please visit this directory:

Fundraiser for Veterinary Care!!
We have had a large number or abused and neglected birds surrendered with no previous veterinary care. These birds will need a full vet exam with disease testing due to their previous horrific conditions. We are seeking donations to help cover these costs, so we can continue to have low adoption fees. Please help us help the birds.
We need donations of:
Large/Medium Perches
Large/Medium Toys
Large Macaw/Cockatoo size cages (no rust please)
Gift cards to Pet Stores or Online bird stores
Pellet/Seed Diets low on Sunflower seeds
Phonebooks
Please visit our donation page!
"For me the sight of a parrot living alone, living in a cage, deprived of flight, miserably bored, breaks my heart... And the parrot's too, perhaps."
