We take great care in selecting and maintaining the best breeding pairs by holding back our biggest and brightest babies and sourcing any new birds from only fellow reputable and ethical breeders. Our adults and babies alike are provided with optimal living conditions through enrichment, avian lighting systems to mimic their natural photoperiod, and nutrition to ensure their well-being and reproductive success.
We maintain a strict hygiene regime and employ the use of high-powered exhaust fans and HEPA-filtered air purifiers as well as maintain an isolated quarantine room on an HVAC system separate from our flock for the occasional new bird to enter our program. All of our breeders have been tested clear of common avian diseases and we look to our local avian veterinarian, Pender Exotics, to ensure we are adhering to the latest standards in avian husbandry.
We also offer ongoing support to ensure the long-term health and happiness of your new feathered friend, including recommendations on supplies, diet, and behavior. Our babies' success in their new homes is of the utmost importance and we are happy to share our knowledge to assist with any roadblocks or questions that may come up along the way.
Choose us as your trusted breeder and find the perfect parrot companion to brighten up your days! Thank you for considering our program, and we look forward to helping you bring home your first bird or expand your current flock.
