The Zoo Grows Down South

[tortadise]

long(very long story actually) story short we have added over 80 new animals to the wildlife park.

Most are rather rare birds. To say the least our whole team is beyond exhausted.

Just a few pics of some of them.

Kings parrot



Congo African grey


Chaco blue front amazons and a pair of green wing macaws.

Lots on noise makers. I can help reduce the burden on the tortoise side of things.

I like training the blue fronts. Greens wings are my second favorite macaw. Love them.

I'd love to see more pics. Any vultures or hornbills yet?

I grew up with a blue gold macaw, green wing macaw and two cockatoos. They were my parents first children. My favorite was the blue and gold macaw. Someone broke into our home and stole them one day. Turned out the thief was family (uncle). He went to jail but the parrots were lost.
I plan on getting a macaw or cockatoo in a few years.. once all remodeling plans for the house are finished

Sad story. I love our blue and gold. Have had him for 17 years now. Cockatoo require a lot of attention. 2 of the new birds are rose breasted cockatoos. They are prettt cool birds.

No birds of prey unfortunately. Yet at least. I do love the green wings. The yellow collared macaws we got are awesome too. Such pretty birds and tiny for a macaw.

Kelly what do you build there? A commercial zoo? Or a park for breeding and helping rare species? Or just you Hobby park?

Right now it's quite small to really considered a zoo. We have expanded though, at the moment we have 5 buildings totaling 6,800 square feet (or about 2,000 square meters) and enclosures/ ponds take up about 5 acres currently(2 hectares or so).

Current estimate on total animals is closing in to 500+ Including over 89 species of chelonian and now 43 species of avian, not including offsprings. 14 species survival plan animals, 60 studbooked animals, and a portion of blcklisted animals native to United States for reintroduction breeding programs. We only do private school educational tours. Our plan is to be open publicly end of 2018.

A weeee little tiny zoo I guess.
