-> I don't know about Texas, there are problably more birds confiscated over
-> there due to the mexican border. I'm sure that a lot of parrots and 
nches
I'm not sure what you're asking.....  Immigration is primarily interested in
interrupting the flow of the proscribed Amazons which are subject to the
diseases deadly to several species. (I don't even make an effort to remember
all the names.)
-> like I said, its very easy for the quarantine employe to sell on the side
And it's eaven easier for him to become a "Guest of the state"  Such
shenanigans are dealt VERY strongly with at the Federal level.  A good 
ederal
job, in THIS poverty stricken area is worth a lot more than a few birds would
bring.
-> being sold to the public? And what do you do with migratory birds such as
-> the Indigo, Lazuli, and Varied Buntings? Do they get released?
There's no black market in migratory birds over here becasue they're just 
that,
migratory.  People don't smuggle what flies back and forth all the time!
