About this Bird
Hatch Date: 1996 Brandy is a 27-year-old, statuesque Green Wing Macaw. Brandy has been DNA sexed male. Brandy has lived in one home since a fledgling, but unfortunately, his mom is ill and can no longer care for him. Brandy seems to have a preference for women. He is much more animated when women speak, sing, and dance with him. He is a skilled dancer and sings opera!!!!! He enjoys watching YouTube videos, movies, and cartoons. He has a huge personality to go along with his large body. Many nights when his foster mom tells him it is time to go to sleep, he yells, " What???? He also says Hello and, when given chop or a treat, he first asks - "Is that good?" after tasting something yummy, he will say, "Mmm... yummy". He will sometimes get in a mood where he mumbles. Brandy loves interaction with humans, on his terms, and seems to also like calling back with the cockatoos in his foster home. In his foster home, he prefers to come out of his cage himself and go on a play stand. We have found that Brandy gets a bit more overstimulated around other large birds. There are no signs of aggression towards them, but he can be a bit intimidating around them. This bird would do better in a home where he will be the center of attention. When out of his cage, Brandy needs supervision for his safety and the safety of destructible items within his reach. He shared a room with an African Grey, Ripley, for 10 years and was very protective of him.This behavior might come across to a human as aggressive. As with all parrots, Brandy will step up on his terms only. He will lunge when he is not looking to interact. He will bite if pushed. Brandy can be sweet and interactive usually once away from his cage. He can sometimes seem more aggressive when on or in the cage.He will only be adopted to a home that has experience with similar-sized birds. His foster mom found out that Brandy has a mind of his own. She needs to allow plenty of time for him to go back into his cage. If you try and get him to step up when he isn't ready, he will lunge at his foster mom's arm, saying, nope, I am not yet ready to go into my cage. Fortunately, he is food-motivated, so that helps. Brandy is on a healthy diet of pellets, veggies and fruit. Although Brandy didn't have toys in his previous cage, he learned quickly that toys are lots of fun. He will destroy a large, multistrand, wood toy in a few days. Daily, his foster mom is putting new toys in his cage. So if you are interested in adopting Brandy, make sure your budget can accommodate his love for destroying toys. Brandy will only be adopted to a single-family, free-standing home. No exceptions. Brandy is a big boy and can be very loud. Brandy will not be adopted out to a home with young children, as he could potentially injure them. His forever home MUST have large bird experience.

Adopt Brandy and Receive Dogecoin
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Brandy's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is Brandy's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Brandy, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Brandy's Dogecoin here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Brandy was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Brandy’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the Brandy’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Brandy’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
