Hand raised parrotlets

We will offer hand raised babies from mid June 2024. Colours we may have available then are: blue, yellow, white, green and American turquoise.

Pick-up from Redbank Plains QLD, will start in mid-August (i.e. once they are ten weeks old).

Collection from most airports will be possible from early September, with delivery cost in most cases being $150 (single parrotlet) or $205 (two parrotlets). Details of the process may be found HERE.

We will accept deposits from suitable buyers for our hand raised babies from three weeks of age (i.e. from mid June).

If you’re interested in adopting a bird (when available), please read our Care Guide and then Contact Us to be added to the wait list. Once we receive your enquiry, Birdie Mumma will call you to discuss the process.

Re: Avian Veterinary Certificates

For extra peace of mind, we offer an optional avian veterinary certificates that include a qualified avian veterinarian examination of your parrotlet that is a signed confirmation of: body condition, body health and a microscopic faecal examination to exclude parasitic/fungal infections.

Re: Adopting pairs

If adopting a pair, we recommend they be kept separately, unless adopting a male and female. Such pairs may be kept either as pets, or for future breeding.

We will be able to confirm from our breeding records whether the birds are unrelated and therefore suitable as a pair.

Both hand raised and parent raised birds may be suitable for breeding. In fact, many of our breeding pairs were hand raised and are indeed very successful.
