Hi,
I'm sorry you are having trouble gettting a response, I'm sure you must be frustrated! It may be that you'll need to get the bird somewhere else. If you would like to bring the bird to Ventura, I would be happy to take him anytime. Just give me a call, 805-320-2438. I do think although it sounds like you're doing a great job, it is time for him be around other jays so that he does not become tame, and we should make sure he is healthy. Jays are slow to mature and releasing him too early would be dangerous for him. There is also California Wildlife Center 818-591-9453, they are in the Malibu/Calabasas area. They have a website you could check out. I'm not sure how close they are to you. I may be in the L.A. area on the 27th, but I'm not sure yet. If so, maybe we could arrange a place to meet. Beth |

Hey Beth
I think I need you, Valley called my back today and left a message saying that they are over run with birds and since the bird is over 3 weeks old and I have had it too long, they will not take him. They said there will be too many nutritional problems to fix so they don't have the time...(He seems very healthy to me) ![]() Anyways I do want him to be around other jays so I want to make the drive to you. Are you with an organization or just a home rehaber?

Oh that is ridiculous. What is a rehabber for if they won't help a bird! Geez. I'm sorry, if I knew you would get that response, I would not have given you the number!
I will be happy to take the bird. I am a subpermittee of the Ojai Raptor Center and I rehab out of my home. I rehab the non-raptor species. I currently have one injured adult jay, and 4 juveniles getting ready for release, so your little one will have some buddies to show him the ropes. I don't get a chance to check my email super often, so the quickest way to reach me is my cell 805-320-2438, and I'm pretty much always available. If you happen to get my voicemail, I will call you back as soon as I get the message. Lets talk and see if we can make arrangements. ![]() Beth |

Hey Gimpie,
I haven't heard from you, how's your little one doing? Let me know if you found somewhere else to take him. Hope all is well ![]() Beth |
