"After researching and visiting many places that hand-raised parrots, I was so happy to have them. I now have a confident, healthy, 5-month-old African grey parrot that was raised in a home environment much like my own. They do an amazing job at socializing each baby and developing a lifetime relationship with their customers. Everyone who has met my birds is impressed with their confidence and sweet personality. My avian vet stated, "They do a remarkable job with their health.""

"They are awesome, they will answer any question. I have had small birds for some time, bought a big Scarlet Macaw from them and they were there for every question I had! I was very scared to give so much money to someone in another state so far away — did not know if they would take the money and run, but they did not. They are great to work with, emailed me shipping info and completed papers. Please buy from them. You can trust them."

"Thank you so much for your wonderful follow-through concerning the purchase of our African grey Tina Jane. You did exactly what you said, and kept us abreast of every step in the process of bringing our little darling home. What a delightful character she is, and needless to say we are in love. My kids are very happy and she loves playing with them. Thanks for being the honest, kind breeders you are."

"I am aware of how scary it is to buy your new family member from a breeder you may have not met. I find that the summary of the bird's personality on their site was right on target. You may hear scary stories of purchasing a bird from a breeder who seems trustworthy — I can assure you, with them, that is not the case. They prepare your bird for a safe flight and ensure that the bird is safely cleared for travel at the vet before flying. Their prices are also very affordable, unlike other breeders."

"I received my African Grey baby from them and she is just perfect. She was already stepping up and eating well when she arrived. Mark and Teri kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I felt confident as a new bird owner. The documentation was all in order. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a quality, healthy African Grey parrot."
