I'm still trying to figure out what all the controls to make a slide show are, so I apologize if there's any repeated images.
Here's the slideshow of the reptiles I work with!

...And one for the birds:

We don't have any African Grays at our site, Raab, but I think there might be one at the So Cal location. All of the animals in the slide show were pets at one point, and were either abandoned or taken by Fish and Game services.
That being said, we really don't have control over what sorts of animals we get, only what we don't get. (ie, We don't have licenses for predatory birds, piranha, crocodilians, venomous snakes, or large mammals.)

ah man. I'm hell bent on getting an African Grey as a pet sometime in the near future. if you pick them up when they are still young - and not attuned to the wild - they attach easily to their owner (I've read, though I'm sure you know this and a lot more). and live for up to 60 years. sure, I hear raising a parrot is like raising a child, but I'm up for it. any estimate on a price range? couple thousand dollars at the least, yeah? I'd totally sell my car for one.

Man... I'll tell you right now, it is not like having a child. A child grows up. A parrot stays at the mentality of a two or three year old for their ENTIRE LIFE, and they are extremely social. Essentially, if you intend on having a day job, don't get a parrot.

Goober and Grr are pure love. Two of the nicest reptiles we have. And Grr is pregnant! *grumbles at the idiot who decided she needed company, but didn't check what gender the company was first*

So awesome! The birds are all adorable. I have a soft spot for parrots.
And reptiles, for that matter.
