-> There's a commercial parrot dealer in Glen Burnie somewhere, I was told. I
-> may pay them a visit and see what they have available.
Pete, I live in the Baltimore area. I think the dealer you're thinking of is
Parrots Plus, but it also be House Of Tropics. In my humble opinion, Parrots
Plus is not a professionally ran business. I have been there many times and
never felt comfortable with their birds. Many birds are in undersized cages
or
too many birds in one cage. I don't like the fact that anyone can walk into
the bird room and tease the birds without an employee seeing them or either
telling them not to tease. I went to their Summer Sale, cages were dirty,
their birds were stressed and the sale prices were not all that great either.
House of Tropics doesn't have that many birds, I don't think they breed their
own birds. I think they buy from local breeders, but most, if not all of the
birds seem to be healthy. I buy from California, Aves International. Very
professional, cheaper to buy and pay freight charges then to buy from pet
stores in Baltimore Metro area. I can give you the number if you are
interested.
Later!
