Its brilliant red, yellow, and blue plumage contrasts with a bare white face that may blush when the bird is excited. Flying with distinctive slow wingbeats and their long tails trailing, scarlet macaws are most often seen flying to and from roosting and feeding sites in pairs, family groups, or flocks.
Looking for a feathered friend? Look no further than our parrot sales team. We pride ourselves on providing the best experience and the highest quality parrots on the market. Our African Grey parrots are particularly striking, despite their lack of colorful plumage. These elegant birds showcase shades of charcoal grey and white, with the only pop of color being the bright red on their tails. Watching them in flight is truly breathtaking, as their black wingspan is revealed in all its glory.
African Greys have distinctive features that set them apart from other parrots. Their large black beaks are one of their most noticeable traits, along with their striking yellow irises surrounded by patches of white skin. Though determining their gender can be tricky, experienced breeders are able to tell the difference based on subtle physical differences between males and females.
While other parrot species may be prized for their vibrant color mutations, African Greys are admired for their understated elegance. Some may have a few red feathers scattered throughout their bodies, but these are considered rare occurrences and not typically something breeders charge extra for.
In short, if you’re looking for a feather companion that is as refined and graceful as it is beautiful, our African Grey parrots are the perfect choice. Let our sales team help you find the perfect addition to your home and your heart.

PARROTS FOR SALE – ALL LIVE AND HEALTHY PARROTS FOR SALE
At our aviary, we prioritize individualized care for our baby birds during the weaning process. It is crucial that all of our online parrot sales feature healthy, nourished babies who are ready to take on the world. To achieve this, we tailor our hand-feeding formula to each species and their unique requirements. Early exposure to a diverse range of foods encourages our baby birds to develop their tastes and preferences. Once they are ready, we transition them to a diet that includes pellets, trail mix blends, fresh fruits and veggies, beans and rice, grains, bread, pasta, and nuts (for our Macaws and Conures).
Success Stories: The taming of a wild amazon parrot
Posted on May 30, 2012 by Hillary
My most treasured emails I receive are the “It’s working!!” updates I get back when people begin to harness the power of positive reinforcement. I adore each tiny (or not so tiny!) hurdle that is accomplished, each new pathway to a better relationship that is created.
Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to check out a bird who really needed help. Barbara Crouse of Parrot Education and Adoption Center (PEAC) of San Diego called me to help out PEAC volunteer Judy, who was fostering a red lored amazon, Ralphie. Ralphie is not just any parrot in need of a new home, he was one of the wild, naturalized parrots that live in Southern California, found in a Los Angeles area shelter with a badly broken leg and about to be euthanized. Understandably, Ralphie was terrified of humans and would become incredibly agitated every time his cage was approached. He panted and screeched and showed extreme signs of stress. He would not take food from the hand nor a spoon. In fact, he wouldn’t even eat in front of a human. When I met him, I had to peek around the door to his room to avoid stressing him out too much.
Judy and I talked about the different approximations it would take for this bird to learn to be comfortable around humans. What impressed me was that there were no expectations put upon him as to what he should know how to do; we just knew we wanted him to remain calm and relaxed for him to be able to have his cage serviced and food delivered. The first step was just getting him to eat in front of Judy. Instead of playing the game of “chicken” and waiting him out to eat while Judy stayed in the room, we simply started by going out of his sight, make a few slight noises to make our proximity known, and over the course of a many sessions, slowly approximated coming into view and subsequently, in to the room while Ralphie ate his favorite treats.
Over the next few months, Ralphie blossomed. With Judy’s knowledge, patience and love, Ralphie began making more happy bird noises. He kept calm as his cage was taken care of. And then, Ralphie even stepped up on to a stick! Ralphie was able to make trips out to her atrium to spend time with all of the enrichment projects Judy has set up. The emails I received from Judy would make my whole week. Ralphie’s success through positive reinforcement means that he wasn’t forced to do any of these things; he was given the choice of participating or not. If he chose to do so, he would get rewarded heavily for it. If not, nothing happened to him, he just didn’t get the opportunity for those extra special goodies. Some of those choices are very small: Can I come closer to your cage? Can I reach inside the cage? Can you step closer to this stick? Those are tiny steps, but put together, each choice the bird gets to make about the outcome of those requests builds trust and a better relationship. In his own words, Ralphie tells the story with the happy behaviors that develop in front of our very eyes. Here is a little bit more of Ralphie’s story that Judy sent me:
Ralphie – My Story
I am a red-lored amazon parrot. I was part of a wild flock of parrots until I got hit by a car. My leg was broken. Someone took me to an animal shelter in Los Angeles. I hurt so bad that I was screaming and screaming for help. The animal shelter was going to put me down but a nice lady came into the animal shelter and she heard me screaming. She asked about me and when the people told her I was going to be put down she said she would take me home. She saved my life!
The nice lady phoned Mrs. Crouse in San Diego. She is the director of the Parrot Education and Adoption Center. Mrs. Crouse helps parrots like me and so the lady in Los Angeles drove me to San Diego. Another nice lady, April Adcock, took me to the doctor and I had an operation. That cost a lot of money! After my operation I went to my foster mom’s house. I had to take medicine. I was so scared! Every time she came near my cage I would scream and scream. But my foster mom fed me good food and pretty soon I started gaining weight. My doctor said my leg was healing but I couldn’t go back to my wild flock because a hawk might get me.
Pretty soon I started getting used to my foster family and I stopped being so scared. Now I can get out of my cage and sit on top. I have lots of toys. Every day I get to go outside into my atrium. It is covered so I am safe. I have my very own tree and I like to stay out there all day. I play in my tree and my foster mom gives me good things to eat out there. Did you know I can tell time? Every day at 5:30pm I start making lots of noise. I want all the other parrots to know that pretty soon it will be time to go to bed. I make noise until 7:00 and then I go back in my window and go to my cage. I do it all by myself.
I am learning lots of things too. I step up on a stick every time my foster mom says “Up”. I understand the word “peanut”. I am still afraid of hands but I am a very good boy about stepping up on the stick. And I never try to bite! I don’t even pretend. My foster family says that I am very handsome. I am so lucky that the nice lady rescued me.
Back to me (Hillary). How is that for a uplifting and empowering story!
