| Why We Breed |
We
have been successfully breeding Cockatiels since late 1998 when we received our
first pair as a gift. It didn't take long to become very attached to them, and
then wonder how we ever got along without them. Cockatiels are absolutely one of
the best companion birds available. When your new bird comes home you will very
quickly learn that these are more than just great pets, they are members of the
family. We are very happy to be able to offer you these extremely friendly and
fun birds.
| Why buy from local breeders? |
| Let
me ask you this. Why buy from a pet store at over-inflated prices? I
have tried to sell birds to a few local pet store with no luck at all
most of them have told me they get a better deal from the farms in
Florida. The birds they sell and advertise as Hand-fed babies, nine
times out of ten came from a large breeding farm in the south. What does
this mean to you. It usually means you get a bird that has had little if
any human interaction and most are not hand-fed and not all of them are
babies. When a pet store buys birds this way they have no control over
what they receive. They place an order and up to 50 birds will be
shipped by air in a crate. So what does this mean to you? You get a bird
that probably can't be handled, played with or enjoyed. Not all pet
stores do this but there are more than you might think.
