My ringneck is gone

[Joeythegrey]

My Indian ringneck flew away 6 days ago. She’s been spotted once the day she flew away. But since then nothing.
I no it’s early days yet but the sadness I just can’t bear it. The wondering is driving me insane. Her cage is still sat there I’ve not touched it since! her little poo her food and water nothing. I don’t no the chances of her survival or if she’s even still alive. Has anyone been in this situation I’m slowly losing hope I have a gut wrenching feeling I’m never going to see her again

DOnt give up hope, but you need to get your butt moving or you will lose her for certain. Posters put up in every store, supermarket, laundrymat, vet office , petshop, church will help spread the word. Lost parrots get returned all the time. But sitting still and moping will not get them back.

@Joeythegrey [/USER], I'm very sorry to hear of the escape of your IRN

Have you already listed yet on https://www.parrotalert.com/ You can also check that site for "found" birds in your location, and make a listing for your lost bird there too if you haven't already done so.

Bring Them Home! Tips On Locating A Lost Bird

It is heart wrenching to lose any pet, but pets do get lost and when it happens, it happens fast. An immediate response doesn't guarantee a safe return, but it can increase the chances. When your bird takes off, according to the circumstances and the location, the bird may not fly too far...

Also alert local Facebook community groups, pet shops and all local veterinary clinics, not just avian ones. Escaped birds that are caught are often handed in there, and from there may be passed on to local animal control or a shelter. I once successfully retrieved an escaped Indian Ringneck years ago by making up old-fashioned paper flyers and popping them in mail boxes in my area too, I got him back the same day by doing that.

As @wrench13 said, don't give up too soon! Many companion parrots are safely returned after weeks or even months on the loose. I wish you all the very best of luck finding your baby!

She’s been found today!! 8 days she’s been out. She’s been around a house which overlooks a park for the past 4 days! She’s been eating and drinking out of a man’s bird feeder. I went today to try and get her but she won’t come to me. I’ve left her cage in his garden in the mean time but anymore tips would be helpful she just flies away from me

What happened?? Were you ever able to get her? I need some hope right now... my irn has been out for 7 days, no confirmed sightings, and I haven't even heard her since the second day.
