Feathered Family is a 501c3 non-profit charitable organization recognized by the U.S. government as a public charity. We are dedicated to helping parrots in need of homes. We specialize in working with parrots with behavior problems, or those with feather abuse issues because these birds are at the most risk of being forced into breeding programs inappropriately or of euthanasia. We provide our Assisted Adoption program to help birds who do not have problems severe enough to require in house modification find homes if they are displaced from their current home for what ever reason.

We do not breed, buy, or sell parrots. We do charge a small adoption fee upon placement, based upon our costs for caring for that bird while it was a Feathered Family resident. If a bird comes to us with suitable property, including but not limited to caging, toys, and supplies we send that property with the bird to its adoptive home. Many of our residents come to us without proper caging, or any proper supplies and we provide this while they are with us, but require the new home to provide it at the time of adoption.

Each home is carefully screened, and investigated in person, to help assure that each placement is as smooth and well suited as possible. No bird is adopted to a person it shows an obvious dislike for, and no person is allowed to adopt a bird before completing placement visits and screening in order to ensure that each bird is placed in the right home. This is the reason we do not adopt out of Colorado, home visits and in house pre adoption placement visits are nearly impossible for parties living outside of Colorado.

The number of parrots in residence at Feathered Family is kept small in order to assure the best possible care for each bird, and to allow enough time with each bird modify any problem behaviors. Each parrot relinquished to Feathered Family remains a resident until finding a proper adoptive home, regardless of how long that takes, we will not force any placement for any reason. Some birds have behavior problems so severe that they cannot be expected to fit into an adoptive situation, these birds stay with Feathered Family in Sanctuary. Each parrot is carefully evaluated, both physically and behaviorally before any decisions about adoption or sanctuary are made, our priority is to place every bird possible into a wonderful adoptive home.
