So the Amazons were'nt dumped.

Good for you for not killing the bird. Don't know if the illness caused infertility or not. Seen plenty of breeding parrots missing more than one eye. Maybe she was'nt aware of the one eyed parrot market. For a one eyed pirate ...priceless

The other bird maybe the person knew you had "one eye" and knew if you could love "one eye" surely you would embrace one with unmanagable toenails.

Either way neither bird was dumped and in a weird way I respect the first owner that she did'nt release the bird.

As far as reasons to let go highend reptiles, well wrong again.

If it is HEALTHY and EXPENSIVE and there is a LEGAL market for it there is no reason to dump it.

MOST reptile people are eager for the animal to be established big enough not to have to worry about it.

A lot of the times you buy a dog it is because it is a puppy and even more often with the cat/kitten thing.

If cats stayed kittens everyone would have 2.

There is absolutely no comparison between expensive dogs and reptiles. I have both(and cats) and the reasons I have all these animals are vastly different.

You are right many more options for unwanted cats and dogs a lot of them are not pretty. I've known people who had those jobs (euthanizing pets)and while they had those jobs they did'nt much like people. D.C.
