| Adoptions |
|
Although our focus is mainly on wildlife we
are often called in to assist with domestic
or exotic birds that have been abandoned or
escaped into the wild. We also accept owner
surrender of some domestic birds for
placement into our adoption programs. If you
have a bird that you can no longer keep
please email us at
info@cwrescue.org and we will try to assist
you. |

| What
Kinds of Birds Do We Get |
The following is a common list of birds we
get on a regular basis.
1.Domestic ducks, the most common are Pekin,
Rouen or Muscovy.
2.Domestic geese such as Embden or Toulouse
(the white and grey barnyard geese).
3. Occasionally we get swans, chickens,
peacocks, pheasants, domestic doves or
pigeons, cockatiels, parakeets or turkeys.
Some of these birds have a longer waiting
list depending on types.
We send out notices on our mailing list. If
you want to receive emails when we have new
birds please go to our
home page and fill out the mailing list
form and check the box for adoptions.
We receive many inquiries and do not have
the manpower to contact people who want
specialty birds. If you are interested
in adopting you must get on the mailing list
to receive notices when birds are available.

| Requirements
for Adopting |
|
|
| Selecting
Birds |
|
Only approved applicants will be scheduled
to come look at birds. Our birds can
change daily and we will call you to discuss
the birds are available after your
application is approved.
We are an all volunteer 501(c)3 non profit
charity. We rely on donations and
adoption fees to provide us with the funds
needed to provide veterinary care, housing
and food to the wildlife and domestic
animals we take in. We require a
donation for each animal that is adopted.
We are an all volunteer group so 100% of our
fees go directly to help birds.

| Wild
Duck Release Programs |
Want
maintenance free ducks?
We can release wild ducks onto your property
that you can enjoy without any commitment.
As long as your property provides a
suitable habitat for wildlife and no hunting
is done on your land you can qualify as a
release site.
You must complete an adoption application
and submit photos of your property to
qualify as a release site. We require
a donation for release sites and the fee
varies depending on your distance from the
rescue.
Due
to problems in the past we have to deliver
birds and release them directly so release
sites are only chosen locally. |
