Post: Update on Jordan Russell and the stolen Redfront hen in CA

Posted by D'Arcy von Schultz on 9/03/06

I'd like to thank everyone who has taken the time and
trouble to email me trying to help me locate Jordan and/or
the missing Redfront hen.

I've actually managed to locate Jordan and get him to pay
what he owed me, but found out after a great deal of being
misled that he'd sold the bird months earlier (sometime
between June and August) to a Jerry Jennings from this
organization http://emeraldforestbirds.com/ . Of course this
puts everything in a grey area legally because Jordan did
not own the bird when he sold her even though he has paid
for her now and I was not aware of the transaction when it
occurred. Mr. Jennings' response when I called trying to
find out at least how the bird was doing was - "It's not my
problem and I don't really care. I have five pairs of
Redfronts and none of them have bands (mine was banded when
I sold her and I have pictures to prove it). You'd have to
prove which bird was yours." - and then he hung up on me. I
wrote him a follow up note explaining the circumstances in
case he wasn't aware of just what Jordan had been up to, but
he's chosen not to answer. I do have some follow-up plans in
motion because I would like to know the condition she's in.

And if anyone's thinking if doing business with either
Jordan Russell or Jerry Jennings (who sells quite a few
species of baby parrots besides Toucans) - well, now you
have some idea of what you may have in store. Please feel
free to forward this any and everywhere; I will be happy to
provide proof of all statements herein except for the actual
conversation with Mr. Jennings - I didn't have a tape
recorder handy .

Best regards,

D'Arcy
