Lessee.... Mikey Blue, Ceilidh, Rowan and Kenobi from breeders. Bob, Arthur, Bowie and Petey McSweet (a Sun Conure) from 2 local bird specialty stores. Eddie came from an individual looking to place him on Craigslist. We are his 4th home.

My two macaws Vollkommen ["volk-co-men" means perfect in german] & Sonnenbär ["Zo-nen-bear" means sunbear in german] were rehomes.


If you're looking for somewhere to get a parrot from check out Hoobly Classifieds & craigslist classifieds: jobs, housing, personals, for sale, services, community, events, forums . Just make sure you're wary of scams.

I got Phoenix, my Rose breasted cockatoo from the independent petstore I work at. She is my lovely girl and I don't regret getting her at all. However, I don't think I would ever buy another bird; I'd rather give a loving home to an unwanted bird needing to be rehomed. I just see so many birds being listed in the paper and on the online classifieds, it breaks my heart.
