Before taking home any parrot, we provide comprehensive guidance on proper caging and setup, positive reinforcement training, household safety, nutrition, and enrichment. Parrots in captivity are still wild animals with all their natural instincts. Your overall success and experience with any species of companion parrot is greatly impacted by positive reinforcement training. A parrot’s behavior reflects both the environment it lives in and the training it receives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll of our hand-fed babies are hatched and raised in our own breeding facility and weaned onto a diverse, high-variety diet. Our parrots are never clipped and are fully flighted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollow our Parrot Stars Podcast to learn all about our parrots, our purchasing process, and our philosophy of parrot care.
