Hey Slim, I already emailed to see if she was going to wean them before she sold. I'll let you know what she says.

EDIT: I got the reply. "900 each only to experienced hand feeders...the fee will go up once weaned..not sure yet have to figure in baby food."

In California it is illegal to sell unweaned parrots. I don't know about other states, but I don't believe Texas is one of them.

Most of the medium to large parrots are usually handraised by humans from 4 weeks and younger, depending on species, parents, and breeder.

So s/he is in direct violation of CL's TOS (no pet sales).

CL should either eliminate the pet catagory altogether or just allow selling. $900 for a baby scarlet (weaned or not) is a sale price, not an adoption fee.

Yeah, I agree Eliza. The pet section is a complete joke.
