pionus pairs for sale, breeder parrots for sale, pineapple green cheek conure for sale

Leo is about 2 years old and is a Cobalt Blue. He was a pet originally, and then was placed in a breeder situation until he lost his mate due to egg binding. I think that it was my fault, because the cage wasn't as big as what I usually give my breeders...she needed more exercise room.

While he was with a mate, he was very protective of her and the nest box. Right now (May 4th), he is very aggressive and is not sweet at all. However, we will try to tame him back down, and I believe that he will be a great pet for someone.

He talks like crazy, and is not shy!

On the subject of "proven pairs...." "Proven" is something you want to have every breeder define to some extent. I have known some breeders call a pair proven, only to find out later that they lay eggs, hatch them and then eat the babies.

Pairs also often change their behaviors when they change locations. I had 2 pairs that ate their babies and I told the interested breeders about this trait before I sold the pairs. The one pair, Red Bellies, went to man named Ken who just had the pair successfully raise a baby. The other pair, Blue Headed Pionus, went to a man who incubates all of his eggs, so this problem was eliminated.

A fellow breeder here bought a very proven pair of Greys, paid top dollar, bought the cage and nest box, bought the pairs that were on either side of their cages and set them up exactly the same at her home. This pair of Greys have not had another baby and they have been with her for 3 years.

In other words, buying proven or unproven, does not guarantee a situation with birds. These are still creatures that have lots of unpredictabilities around them.
