Our Nursery

Here you will find pictures of our babies and learn our philosophy of raising them.

Raising Baby Birds:

All of our babies are fed when hungry….not on a schedule.  They are weaned according to their schedule, not ours.  This makes for a more confident and loving companion. 

Fledging:

Babies are allowed to fledge just like they would in the wild, before we gently and gradually trim their wings.  Just as we learn to crawl/walk, a bird must learn how to fly.

Food, Sights, Sounds:

Babies in the nursery are introduced to a huge variety of pellets, seed, nuts, fruits and vegetables. At appropriate times in their development they are introduced to different sights, sounds, people, toys and climbing activities.

Weaning Process:

During the weaning process our babies are weighed daily.  We want to be sure the weight stays constant as babies can loose up to 15% of their body fat when being weaned. 

Going Home:   

Babies leaving our nest will go home with their “First Report Card”.  This will give you all the information you need to keep a happy and healthy bird.

Remember, we will be there for you long after the sale.
