Fostering birds in Toronto — how to start?

I'd love to foster birds in need but I'm not sure how to get started. Are there organizations in the GTA that need foster homes? I have experience with Eclectus and a dedicated bird room in my Guelph home.

Hang in there! It gets better. My Quaker parrot went through this too.

Thanks for sharing! I'll have a more detailed response shortly.

A friend who's had birds for 20 years told me to try introducing new foods by eating them in front of the bird — monkey see monkey do. I was skeptical but it actually worked.

A friend who's had birds for 20 years told me to try covering the cage partially at night for 12 hours of uninterrupted sleep. I was skeptical but it actually worked.

I've done a ton of research on this because my Indian Ringneck had the same issue. Here's what I learned: the most common cause is a subtle environmental change you might not even notice. What worked for us was putting a bird lamp on a 12/12 timer to simulate natural daylight cycles. I also started reading "The Parrot Problem Solver" by Barbara Heidenreich and noticed improvement within a week. It's a process but it gets better.

Totally agree with this! My African Grey is exactly the same way.
