I wanted you guys to see this pair of Quakers we rescued Friday. He has no chest feathers and is missing part of his beak and I think hes adorable and I already love him. The cage they were in looked like it hadnt been cleaned in a year a couple inches deep in poo and smelled of urine it was horrible. They are 2 happy little birds now and they are finally moving around some they had maybe a foot of room in the other cage to move around it was awful. They play on their cage and the little play gym right outside their cage Randy made for them and they eat all the time, they are really small so I'm sure they didnt get the right foods, but they sure love birdie bread. I'm glad we found them, we just added 2 more little blessing to our home.

Gabriel, I always smile when I see folks that care enough to save neglected, mistreated animals.
Hoping the bare chested guy will grow back his grey feathers with a proper diet and care.
Kudos,

awww they are so cute. God Bless you for getting them.

They are so precious! I am so happy you have taken them in and gave them a loving home.

WTG! Good for you and Randy for being their angels. Now they will have a home full of love and good care. Thank you for being there for them. And that just makes him unique. LOL Poor little guy, hopefully with the right food now and love his little bare chest will fill in.

Thank you for being their new forever home. what cuties and I know they will be happy with you

They are so sweet! I am so glad you rescued them. Congratulations and looks like they are very happy with their new home!

Bless you for rescuing them! Isn't it amazing how they can come from such a horrible environment and yet trust you enough to sit on your hubby's shoulder in just two days!

Awww, poor babies! They're SO lucky you found them! And you're right, he's adorable even with a naked tummy!

Naked or not, he is a beutiful baby ~ both of them are. Congratulations!

Thank God for people like YOU!!!

Awwwww, bless you for taking those birds. Lucky you, lucky birds. The bare chested one looks like he snuggles next to the other one for support. They are beautiful just like they are but as some have said, maybe a great new sense of security, care and happiness will make him grow his feathers back.

One of my birds plucked his chest clean once and I always felt that giving him plain yogurt with a little bit of peach mixed in and some apple cider vinegar in his water did the trick. I believe it was bacterial or some kind of infection and that took care of it.
No, I didn't get ACVinegar from the health food store. I got the plain old ACV from the grocery. Anyway, his feathers started to grow back immediately.
Best wishes with these two beauties.

I'm glad that you and your family where able to take these little birds in, I am sure with all of your TLC they will once again no how to be happy and confident birds.
