You took this bird with the idea that you were going to be the
"one" to make him whole again. You have failed miserably, so
now this old guy gets passed on AGAIN!
Can't you live with a less-than-perfect bird? I'm sure you have
your shortcomings if we asked the bird.
And $1000 for a 24 yer old bird? Are you nuts?
Do the right thing and send him to a rescue such as the Gabriel
Foundation where he can live out his life in peace and
"imperfection."
