Our Inspiration
Barker’s Feathered Friends Sanctuary was born on July 2, 2025, out of a deep love and respect for all domesticated birds and poultry. Witnessing the need for safe, caring environments for birds in need inspired us to create a sanctuary where every feathered friend can receive proper care, attention, and a loving home. Our mission is simple: to protect, nurture, and celebrate the lives of these amazing creatures—one bird at a time.
Our Core Mission
At Barker’s Feathered Friends Sanctuary, our mission is to provide a safe, loving, and nurturing environment for all domesticated birds and poultry. We are dedicated to:
Rescue & Rehabilitation – Saving birds from neglect, abandonment, or unsafe situations and providing the care they need to thrive.
Education & Awareness – Teaching the public about proper bird care, behavior, and the importance of sanctuaries for domesticated birds.
Adoption & Forever Homes – Carefully matching rescued birds with responsible families to ensure lifelong happiness and well-being.
Community & Volunteer Engagement – Encouraging hands-on involvement so supporters can make a real difference in the lives of birds.
Health & Wellness – Ensuring every bird receives proper nutrition, medical care, and enrichment to live a full, happy life.
Since our founding on July 2, 2025, we have been driven by a passion to protect, nurture, and celebrate the lives of every feathered friend that comes through our doors. Every bird matters, and every act of care helps create a brighter future for them.
What Makes Us Different
