Meet Sky! 🩵

We believe Sky is an Indian Ring-necked Parrot, possibly a female. While we aren’t bird experts, this is the closest identification we’ve been able to make through our research.

Sky is looking for a patient, experienced bird owner who can give her the time, attention, and understanding she needs to build trust. She has a lot of potential and deserves a home where she can feel safe, loved, and allowed to come out of her shell at her own pace.

One thing we do know—Sky loves apples! 🍎 She’s a beautiful bird with a bright personality that’s waiting to shine in the right home.

If you have experience with parrots and are ready to give Sky the TLC she deserves, we’d love to introduce you.

Contact the Lathrop Animal Center at 209-647-6480 to learn more about adopting Sky.
