Love that store and Chris is the best

I absolutely adore your videos. Keep up the great work! ❤❤❤

No manners, talking with a foolish mask....you do a lot to get attention. Seen enough after putting that mask on

HORRIBLE THOSE POOR PARROTS...NEVER BUY IN A SHOP. TOO YOUNG, STRESSED AND CLIPPED. TYPICAL AMERICAN😡

These birds are so over priced

❤❤❤❤

African Grays are the meanest birds I've ever owned. They love to bite!

❤very well said and true, im a younger breeder in Az and its sad to see it going down slowly

I’m so glad that I came across your channel. You are very knowledgeable about parrots, and it’s really helpful that you share your knowledge about parrots. I’m owned by a Blue and Gold Macaw, an African Grey, cockatiels and budgies. Best of luck with your new babies! ❤️🦜❤️

Thank you for the video

I am from Pakistan i am birds Lover I like it your video and keep it up ❤❤❤and best of luck ❤

Great video! So important to get correct avian nutrition info out there!

I have had Baby, my Congo African Gray for 25 years, and Seymour, my Red-Lored Amazon for 33 years. I wondered if there were any Red-Lored Amazons in that store, so I could find out what they cost these days. Neemie (Seymour's nickname) cost me $899 in 1990. When we got Baby in 1999, we paid $1200 for her.

I have 2 amazons. One Red-Lored and a Yellow-Naped. Love them. They are also prone to fatty liver as I lost my 37 year old Orange-Winged to it. She was wild caught and they didn't have the pellet blends available when I got her. The red macaw was a scarlet. The way you can tell is they have yellow on the upper part of their wings whereas green wings have green. Also, he has no small feathers on his face and the greenwing does. To tell if a parrot is a baby, they have dark eye which eventually lighten.

Hello bro.i have watch all you video❤ and that was great.i from Bangladesh. I want an sun conour bird.Do you know any one who can export bird out side usa or sell bird internationaly.

The exotic pet trade as a whole is dying in the U.S. but aviculture is definitely dying the fastest. I think part of the problem is that it's so vilified. Everyone even people who keep these animals say they don't make good pets. The other problem is we all broke and every things getting more expensive.

indian ringnecks and hyacinth macaws are my favorites. That said, I'll pass they're not an animal I'd be willing to keep especially inside. Parrots are too noisy for me. My previous neighbors' parrots would annoy me when I lived next to them. We lived on opposite sides of 2 one acre lots, so there were basically 2 acres between us.

I have been following Jason Crean for a couple of years. He is great. My Sun Conure is 20 yearsoke now and got a clean bill of health at her last physical. I think it has to do with diet.

Love Jason Crean and the work he's doing.

Thank you for this show. There is so much conflicting information on this topic.

Such a great interview!!!! I plan to change my birds diet dramatically

You aim for better content everytime!!!!

Actually the Golden Conure does not belong to the Sun conure family anymore ( the Aratingas). They have their own family now together with the cherry fronted and the blue crowned conure :)

We don't kill any comatose in Australia farmers chase them away welli have seen nobody kill them ive been a farmer in Australia for 60 years bird guns go off make noise but does not kill them or netting most parrot are found all over.australia some like in land some like the coast but from east to west you find our birds a lot of wrong information on Web love from Australia ❤

Holy Christ those prices are insane, can get a macaw in the UK for the price of a green cheeked conure in there 😳

You can get African Grey Parrots for around 700 usd from here in the United Arab Emirates 🇦🇪

I really enjoyed this - especially the focus on Primal Flora. I will have to try this for my Eccie Thanks for introducing us all to Mr. Ricciardi.

Sometimes I wish I got an African Grey rather than a macaw

Also be careful to "legit" breeders, brokers selling birds. I bought my male Ecclectus from "The Bird Man" and had it flown to LA. Great communication and tracking, but when I got the bird, he had a lame foot which we thought was damaged on the flight. When I went back and blew up the pictures when he was placed in the transport crate - I could see his foot was lame there. He has turned out to be a great bird, but I paid full price. The "Bird Man" should have been up front and offered the bird at a discount and/or paid for the flight to LA, or kept the bird for himself...., live and learn. I will never have a bird flown in again, or buy from "The Bird Man" (east coast) again, even though the airline was excellent, and even "The Bird Man's" communication was really good, he was dishonest in his assessment of the bird and knew the bird had a lame foot when shipped. At almost two years old, the birds foot is still lame.

Wayne from Australia, we have Galah's throughout Australia

I love watching videos like this but I hate living in a country where everything is banned (including native fauna) except for dogs, cats, rabbits and hamsters. It pains me when I see foreign people owning red eye frogs and know that if I get one I risk my butt going to jail for it lol

I love that place I got an African gray hybrid from there Best place to shop

THE best

thank you.

Wish I could find a store like that in the UK

Please show the prices❤❤❤

Thank you for another informative video❤

How many times a day to feed CAG

That’s why I only buy my parrots in person and from reputable breeders…

You can use a washable shower curtain on the wall behind the cage . Helps with splatters , and can help provide more visual interest. Parrots have excellent color vision, I would love to see them have more visual enrichment. Toys , I try for five , a foot toy, a moveable puzzle like toy, , a noise making one, easy to destroy, and difficult to destroy. I love the natural foraging Matts of seagrass, with all kinds of textures natural materials attached . Stainless steel veggie cage forager. I like to provide a sturdy large ceramic bowl with a couple of inches of water for self choice baths a couple of times a week, I also use it as an enrichment and float toys in it as well

Cheap prices for animals = scam or factory farmed pets.

I am 63 and I want a parrot. What would be good for me?

Outstanding video. I have recently started researching birds/parrots and as you probably know, I have subscribed to your channel and commented on several videos. You have been fantastic at responding and continuously putting out useful information. I am not a younger person that is obsessed with social media or video games, etc., and most of the videos I see are about cuddly birds and/or talking birds. As a retired person (not old) that isn't wealthy but isn't poor, I was shocked at the cost of parrots today. I have no interest in breeding birds, I'm just interested in having a bird(s) as a companion. There are several breeds that I won't even consider simply based on the price of the birds. That's a shame because I have a lot of time to offer and I have a safe, committed situation for a bird. Of course, everyone wants to make money, that's a given. But like many other hobbies, many new people that could become the lifeblood of the hobby are turning away because it's become a rich persons hobby, more or less. It's not a matter of quality over quantity, the amount of birds in rescues or being "sold" on Craigslist and similar platforms should make people aware of the fact that the higher pricing isn't creating a better quality of birds or clientele, it's simply creating less potentially high quality hobbyists to be interested and invested in the hobby. Losing hundreds of species of birds in the US alone should give every serious aviculturist concern and it should motivate them to do something different. Thanks again for this excellent video.

You should teach your African greys to say: The African Gray Journal here, 😂 But one tip if you want to teach them to talk, take one of them to another room, and teach him/her to talk, because if you teach them how to talk in the same cage they will distract the other and not pay any attention to what you are saying!!

{ PRIVATE AN CONFIDENTIAL: fellow friends and animal protective neighbors,... so nice looking store ... good and well.. i wanted to send a message that is true to my heart true to the times, thye climate of our world and just leave it with you..... very soon commerce wil fall says the bible. as part the culminating crimes and calamities in the world,, and i actually happen to completely know that it isnt a bad thing, it is the greatest thing that ever happened to us... because of alll the problems it causes and the demons it cxreates.... so i dont think humans are out of companion options, to justify putting anyone or any animal in captivity. its creepy. birds are meant to fly , their brain needs tol be doing is compass on the water balance act, not walking around on its knuckles/ knees and in a cage... 2 birds instead of one, much better but,... thee are intelligent animals that do understand language.. think about it... its the only animal thyat can do that literally and understand.. i think owning birds should be illegal just like it is illegasl to kidnap someone and cage them in a basement; ...... its in the mind of the captor how creative they will get to try to satisfy the birds needs but it always be inadequate to replace their freedom. they are not circus acts, not even monkeys speak english... the best they could do was sign language, and i have heard a birdy sing ass good as sia.. so sad,... I WANT TO FLY.... LIKE A CHANDELIER... THE BIRD KNEW WHAT IT WAS SINGING... AND THE DUMB HUMANS ARE LIKE.. HEY LOOK MA, THE BIRD SINGS SO PRETTY, AND i am watching the video in tears saying, HELLOOO the bird is trying to appeal to any human to set it free..... how sad... please... there are a lot of owners with lots of followers online. altoo\ften the peopole chastize them like an abusive person would to its victim... it creeps me out and i t makes me think of the movi misery. mentally ill people that want to feel popular or i dont know.. too mamy people story is the bird was injured and needs forever humans... but in reality most birds were in captivity and neglected and their wings were cut and they weere traumatized and,.. that caused the injuried birds dont fall, they fly... so.. everyone is a liar just feeding their own perversions and i am not talking about this gentleman he seems liike he has the greatest intentions... but good intentions dont do anything for the soul of anyone, suffering.. THIS MANS WORLD IS FULL OF ABDUCTORS, TRAFFICKERS, CAPTORS, ABUSERS, ETC... T HE WHOLE WORLD IS PROFITING OFF OF BEING A CREEP THIEF. NOTHING BELONGS TO ANYONE. NOT A PERSON, NOT AN ANIMAL NOT A MOUNTAIN ... NOT A LAND MASS AND NOT A SPOT ON THE FLOOR OF THE OCEAN... ITS TIME WE FIRE THE INSANE WAR FIGHTING WEIRDOS AND PUSH STOP REASSESS GET THE FULL ACCOUNTING AND ISSUE EVERY SINGLE PERSON, A SITIN PRETTY SALARY LIKE 300k A PIECE.... YOU WILL SEE.. THE WORLD WILL THRIVE AND HEAL,... SEEMINGLY OVER NIGHT.. IT STARTS WITH US, RESPECTING OURSELVES SO WE CAN RESPECT THIS EARTH AND ALL OF US WILDLIFE. SENT WITH LOVE. WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

Wow, extremely interesting and informative.

I am zapped to know African grey price is too high in states.. u get pair of budgies in india around 4 US dollar 😂😂 i aint kidding ..

Here in India u get congo African grey chick 40 days old around 35 to 38K if u convert them in US dollars that would be less than 500 US Dollar.. I have 1 African grey 3 months old and 1 orange winged Amazon..

My birds love the sound of the vacuum. They also LOVE to look out of windows. It natural for them to dip their food in water because they don’t naturally produce saliva. Just give them fresh water two or three times a day.

Hey brother, watching from the UK, been breeding greys and yeah there are lots of scammers, my greys bred once this year but it seems like i cant get them to breed more than one a year, any tips? I am feeding them pellets, veggies and calciworms (great for them if you have never tried them)
