Connie lentz, connie kloss lents has nerve to talk about anyone else lets see what goodies we found online about her! 1 these are true actual facts and yes are backed up with 100% percent evidence as I will post links and documents. Connie the piece of garbage was accused of animal cruelty, being a bird horder with close to 100 birds that are locked away in 2 manufatured buildings with no windows, no sun light, no air, no air conditioner, hot as in heat stroked, flies all over, feces all over those poor biords must be set free! I know shes currantly being investigated by animal rights groups like peta, and more! Also pay yr tazes connie on all those bird sales, like charles gordon from ny! Did you claim that? Hmm? I sure hope so!
Buildings dept is currantly trying to get a judge to order a seize and rescue all those poor birds that connie lentz is mistreating and neglecting!
Sad she uses the line "her daughter was murdered" no it was suicide the papers said and the hung herself in her baracks in germnay, if you were my mother I would have done the same thing! I

Tempers erupt at county meeting over noise from exotic birds

Posted: 06/08/2011
By: erik waxler

Spring hill, fla. - a pasco county planning meeting turned into a
Shouting match wednesday afternoon. Residents living on porshe place
In spring hill directed their anger at neighbor connie kloss, and it's
All because of birds.

Kloss and michael lentz have 70 exotic birds in structures on their
Property. Kloss says it started as a hobby, but now she and lentz
Breed them. "they are just so loving. Each one is different, each one
Has a different personality," said lentz.

"they get the best treatment. They have somebody that feeds and waters
Them everyday. They have the radio on, they get misted every day,"
Said kloss.

Some neighbors disagree, saying the birds are not cared for properly.

But what bothers them the most? The noise.

"they just annoy me. You're just sitting outside. And they make noise
All the time," said neighbor joe trapuzzano.

The couple says most of the time the birds are quiet.

"do you hear them right now? They do not scream all the time," said lentz.

As we found out, they do get loud when strangers invade their space.

Kloss and lentz are fighting for a special zoning exception to keep
The birds. County staff members who have been to their property are
Recommending approval for the exception with some conditions.

The exceptions include limiting the number of birds to 70 and keeping
A hundred foot barrier between the birds and the neighbors.

"they bug me. I don't think they should have that many birds in a
Residential area," said trapuzzano.

"these birds. They are my kids. I mean they are just as important as
My grandkids," said kloss.

The public hearing where this matter may have been resolved was
Actually postponed until next month. So the battle of these birds
Continues.

Peta calls foul on bid for permission to keep 75 large exotic birds
Caged 24/7 in windowless metal shed in residential area

For immediate release:
June 6, 2011

Spring hill, fla. — in advance of pasco county resident connie j.
Kloss's upcoming june 8 petition to the planning commissioners — in
Which she will seek a special exception to county code so as to
Continue keeping and breeding 75 large exotic birds in a residentially
Zoned area — peta has sent an urgent letter to the members of the board,
Urging them to deny ms. Kloss's request.in the letter, peta points
Out that the birds are currently kept 24/7 in a windowless metal shed
With no air conditioning — which could result in heat stroke and death
For the birds as summer temperatures rise — and that the noise created
By 75 screaming birds (Parrots scream out of desperation when denied
Flight, flockmates, and their basic behavioral needs) has already
Resulted in complaints from ms. Kloss's neighbors.

"ms. Kloss's windowless, breeding warehouse is a prison for these
Magnificent birds," says peta vice president daphna nachminovitch. "we
Urge pasco county officials to spare these complex, intelligent
Animals from suffering more misery in what is essentially a breeding
Mill, especially as avian welfare groups struggle to deal with a
Massive bird homelessness crisis."

Ideal temperatures for parrots range between 65 and 80 degrees.
Temperatures in spring hill have already begun to reach the mid 90s,
And will rise even higher inside the metal shed. Since parrots cannot
Perspire to control their body temperature, they are quick to suffer
Heat stress and can die within minutes. Exotic birds are intelligent
Flock animals who require specialized care and diets, psychological
Stimulation, exercise (Flight), and the companionship of other birds.
They can live for up to 70 years of age. Since kloss’ birds are denied
Natural light, fresh air, and the chance to fly and socialize with a
Flock, they are likely to express stress by screaming at ear-deafening
Decibels.in fact, when an officer from pasco county's animal services
Division inspected ms. Kloss's shed in may, the officer noted that,
Upon entering the shed, "the level of noise went up to the point of
Having to leave the area due to the noise."

Peta's letter to the members of the planning commissioners is
Available upon request. For more information, please visit peta.org.

Weekly bird news roundup (June 10)

By timothy martinez jr. | published june 10, 2011

Since we don’t have time to go into a full analysis of each newsworthy
Moment about birds that occurs each week, here is a brief overview of
Important bird news from this week.

Large bird breeding center in florida ruffles feathers

Connie kloss found solace in breeding exotic birds after her daughter
Was murdered 18 years ago, but neighbors are complaining about the
Excessively noisy birds that wake them up in the morning and keep them
Up at night, according to st. Petersburg times.

Kloss has about 75 birds that she houses in a $40, 000 building in her
Backyard. Kloss and her husband have been public enemy number one
Since moving to the neighborhood a few months ago and neighbors are
Doing their best to get her birds out of the area.

Apparently, the noise was so brutal, an inspector even had to leave:

A county animal inspector who visited the property in march noted the
Noise, writing that “upon entering the housing areas for birds, the
Level of noise went up to the point of having to leave the area due to
The noise.”

Kloss and residents were hoping to resolve the issue, but not enough
Commissioners showed up this week to vote on whether she could keep
The birds or not.

... the 40k building before the birds were relocated... it has uv lighting-intake and out take fans-misting system-concrete floors that were protected with tarps for easy clean ups — schulder claims that both buildings were run down shacks...

Robin schulder who filed this complaint is a liar and a scammer... she used my pics of my birds to scam people stating she owned the pairs and the eggs and babies went with the adults... when she was discovered by other breeders who recognized my pics she retaliated by posting this complaint... she claims I am associated with the wotr seizure — wings over the rainbow is in moraine ohio — I am not... this is the florida game commission report from 2011 when falsely accused... schulder ran a puppy mill in queens ny and was shut down for selling sick puppies with parvo or other illnesses..
