None of our birds are for sale, nor do we have connections with any parrot breeders or retailers. All of our flock was surrendered to a local pet store after difficulties with previous owners, where we found them.
We do not provide professional training advice. Before bringing a bird into your life, please conduct your research thoroughly and understand the significant responsibility they entail. Parrots are known to be loud, messy, and hormonal. They require a level of commitment that goes beyond typical pet ownership — be prepared to change your lifestyle to accommodate their needs.
Understand that every parrot is a distinct individual, and not all of them will talk. Those that do talk will develop a unique way of speaking and choose which words and sounds they learn. You can't and shouldn't force a parrot to talk.
