OUR PHILOSOPHY

 We sacrifice the quantity of offspring for quality. We are enthusiasts. We find it more rewarding to produce a bird that competes well at shows, or makes an outstanding pet (not a reduction in quality, just an increase in work with a baby for tameness). We chose parent birds based on breed standards and pairings for health of the bird over breeding strictly for color. Besides thinking that the normal Amazon Parrot, Caique Parrot,  Cockatiel,  Cockatoo, Conure Parrot beautiful, we like the size, health and conformation we get from these pairings. This shows in the quality of their feathering, body structure, and their personalities are steady and playful as nature intended. We work with many mutations as well, but very responsibly.

We keep our aviary very clean and disease free. Therefore, we have adopted the best practice of what is called a “Closed Aviary”. This means that while new bird owners are welcome to come to pick up their new pet in person, the bird room itself is closed. In late 2015 we moved and built a new birdroom. This room is equipped with multiple viewing areas through glass so you can see all of our birds, but protect them from potential outside viruses. Exotic parrots for sale usa

We breed with purpose, for the betterment of the species. No decisions are made based on a potential monetary gain.

Tips On How To Care For A Newly Bought Bird

• Setting up the cage for your bird
The cage is the castle of your bird and needs to be in good shape to comfort the new bird. A cage protects your birds and also shields your belongings from the birds. If a parrot is capable of reducing prize antiques to a toothpick with its great beaks, your bird is capable of reducing prize antiques. You should select a position where your bird will be adjacent to family activities but not at its center.

The bird will feel more comfortable having its cage against a wall. In such a position, the bird can watch things going on without worrying about anyone sneaking up on its backside. It would be best if you placed the cage where the bird wouldn’t be surprised. The cage should be away from large furniture that may obstruct the bird’s view or the comings and goings of family and friends. Generally, birds don’t like to be startled any more than we do.

The cage should be rectangular with enough depth for two birds to extend their wings fully. You need to always supervise your bird outside its cage to get enough exercise. Without enough exercise, your bird can become overweight and depressed. Baby exotic parrots for sale


• Good nutrition
The health of your bird greatly depends on a balanced diet. The most common problems seen by veterinarians include obesity, egg binding, and vitamin A deficiency. Many bird owners feed their birds with seed as their sole diet. Although birds love these seeds dried, packaged seeds are low in Vitamins, especially vitamin A. Exotic parrots for sale craigslist

To provide your bird with a balanced diet, you need to offer many other foods daily. Green vegetables are very important and essential for the health of your bird. Some examples of vegetables include spinach, silverbeet, endives, parsley, and celery. You can also feed your newly bought bird with fresh grasses, milk thistle, dandelion, and fresh fruits. Good and quality bird pellets can be used in place of seeds. Exotic parrots for sale craigslist


• Comfortable environment
You need to ensure your bird is rightly settled in once you get home with the bird. Most birds enjoy baths and showers, more so even with their owners. However, you should avoid using soaps when you are with your bird in the shower. You can also provide birdbaths, but it is best not to leave the bird in a cage. birds for sale near me by owner

Your bird needs a full spectrum of light. It is not enough to only expose your bird to sunlight through the window because vitamin D is absorbed from natural sunlight. Your bird needs to have a minimum of 10-12 hours of total darkness each night. If your bird is housed in a place used at night, then a blanket cover is recommended. For most bird species, the period of darkness may be varied to mimic natural seasons. Baby exotic parrots for sale


• Careful if you are a tobacco smoker.
Smoking is extremely harmful to birds. The lungs and air sacs are extremely efficient breathing systems. You can also irritate your bird’s skin with smoke, and it is considered one of the major reasons for self-mutilation. Don’t assume that if you smoke on the other side of the room, it is safe for your bird. On the contrary, it is not true. Nicotine in cigarettes is extremely toxic to birds if ingested. If you are a smoker, you need to be very careful and keep cigarettes away from your bird and dispose of butts efficiently. birds for sale near me by owner


• Good perches
Poorly constructed perches commonly lead to sores on the feet of birds. The perches should be made of natural wood branches of varying sizes and not doweling or plastic. In times past, people made use of sandpaper to shorten their birds’ nails, but they ended up causing their birds sore feet.


• Rightly place the food and water bowls.
You must ensure that the food and water bowls for your bird are located in a place where the bird cannot defecate. You shouldn’t place any material on the ground that encourages your bird to feed off the floor. You should also avoid using metal toys or plastic-coated bag ties to lead to metal poisoning.

• You may consider getting a bonding friend for your bird.
It is rare for birds to be happy while existing alone in your house. Most of the diseases that affect pet birds are related to stress, frustration, and boredom. You may be able to substitute with television or radio, but they are not long-term substitutes for a company. exotic birds for sale near me
