I don't post ofen but I do read board frequently, which is why I have decided to come here to try and find a new home for Jasper. SHE is a lutino cocatiel almost 3 years old that can't stop laying eggs. She is my husbands bird, and he has stage 4 reinal cell cancer. She won't have anything to do with me, and he can't care for her anymore. She is hand tame, and loves to have her crest and nose rubbed. Her wings have been cut but she is still able to fly a little. She will step up. She is a pretty bird, and her cage will go with her. We live in Morton Il. witch is just the other side of the river to Peoria Il. I really need to find her a new home soon. A fee to rehome her is $25. Please contact me at

I haven't heard from anyone wanting to be Jaspers new mommy or daddy. Can anyone suggest another place to post? I know that there is always pet finder, but I am reluctant to go there because of the Nuts that watch that site. Any suggestions? Kathy

How willing would you be to meet hallfway? I would take her in but I am in McHenry, IL so it'd be a bit of a haul for me.

We would be willing to met you half way. We use to live in Zion so I know just how long the drive is. We haven't been back up there in about 5 years. If you would get in touch with me at sandrakrymer@verizon.net we can arrange a time and a place. This will be a big load off my mind. Although my husband is doing ok right now, chemo will restart in another week, and then he will not have the energy to drive up there. Are you sure you have room for one more fid? It looks like you have a houseful?
Thank you for taking her. Kathy

Yea...and that doesnt even include the Tiels.
I have a huge cage that has a couple of Tiel girls in it...she can come hang out with them and be a happy camper. (as long as hubby says it's ok) Is she flighted because they all are and come out for a few hours a day to fly around.

She can fly, just not very well because she has clipped wings, I just did,t do a very good job of it.She does not get a lot of altitude. K

I haven't heard from rodeo. I know she probably has her hands full with the kitten, has anyone else heard from her? I Need to make a decision soon. My husband is going to restart cemo next week.

Hey there!
Sorry that I haven't gotten back to you.
Since the last time that I posted here, A lot has come up and my schedule is going to be pretty busy for a while so I just figured someone else could get to you much faster than I could.
I'd love to take her in but just dont know when I 'd have the time to meet up with you and I figured that wasn't fair to you.
