Handicapped Eclectus Gracie Scooting

Gracie is a 6 year old handicapped female eclectus parrot. We do not know her history though at some point an injury caused one of her legs to fuse together in an odd position. Gracie amazes us daily with her love, her patience, and her deciation for showing her humans love. She does not seem to notice her handicap and can do anything a normal bird can. Gracie is blessed with a family who is eager to adopt her and she will be used in educational programs where people will be able to learn all about the wonders and challenges associated with keeping parrots. This video shows Gracie slowly scooting around on the top of her cage.

awww.... baby so sad :(

that poor leg is a liability. i've seen birds with one leg getting along better than this. you should encourage the family to seek out options to help make her life more manageable.

She's a beautiful girl and obviously loves you very much for looking after her. My little eccy Harley had a broken back that has healed very well. His mum tried to kill him when he was young as he was the third egg (they normally only have 2 eggs). His back forms a bit of a hump that is pretty obvious. He doesn't know he once had a broken back and it doesn't affect him at all. We adore him and vice versa. Check out his video.
