He had the same leg issues as Clifford, my beloved Cherry-headed Conure who passed away, shattered my heart, and started me on my journey into bird rescue and outreach in his memory. He didn't ask for anything in return, although I did throw some funds in the rescue fund jar. Clive gave me the cage he lived in and some fresh mix. (It's actually common for birds to bully and even kill other birds that have issues.) I felt that I needed him in my life, but I didn't want to be impulsive, so I waited a week, saw he was still there, and took that nugget home. I inquired about him and Clive told me his cagemates were bullying him at the Breeder's, so he took him in. Going by his posture, I could tell he had Splayed-legs, a condition that can be corrected, but depending on its severity and only if it's caught when they're bones are still growing. Towards the back of the shop, next the wall of toys, sat a little chocolate-colored lovebird, although it wasn't his colors that drew me to him. Sometimes the Hyacinth Macaws would step up and help me with my shopping. Residents like a Black-headed Caique that was missing half his face due to an ailment (I think cancer) that was loved and cared for, and a sweet, half-nude Golden Conure.

I would visit the shop, pick up some fresh mix and various other bird goodies, and say 'Hi' to the feathered residents.

Clive the owner, would often take in birds with disabilities and in need of help birds like Cody.

Cody came from Chippy the Pirate, a local South Florida bird shop.
