We are a All Exotic Birds Aviary Center (AEBAC) certified parrot breeder whose healthy, highly socialized companion parrots are raised with love and the best techniques to ensure their proper physical, emotional, psychological development and socialization. We also have a wonderful bird supply store as a part of our facility where you can purchase everything your pet birds need, and we have a knowledgeable staff to help you make great selections.

The (AEBAC) was a mystical place of healing and sacred teachings, a sanctuary one only found if invited. Unlike the mythical Far North, our aviary has a standing invitation - if you love birds, please feel free to visit.

No business or home is complete without a strong set of values. Here at (AEBAC) we run our business according to four primary values:

    Our birds come first, always
    Continuous improvement in aviculture (bird raising) practices
    Continuous education and improvement for ourselves and the public
    Commitment to conservation and parrot rescue

According to Bird Talk 1/97, "you can be assured of a certain level of husbandry and professionalism by buying birds from a MAP-certified facility." Thus, when you purchase a bird from (AEBAC), you can know you're buying from the best.

As a parrot breeder, we specialize in happy, well-adjusted companion parrots. Confident, highly socialized babies can be your friends for life. Our baby parrots start out under their parents and then are brought into our intensive care nursery. There, they receive lots of nurturing and gentle handling; they start out in the world feeling safe and secure. As the parrot babies develop, we add different colors and textures of toys and foods to explore with curious beaks and tongues. When they are ready, we move them from environmentally controlled brooders to natural baskets draped with colorful towels across their handles which are contained in playpens that we have in the nursery. From these baskets, which resemble natural nests, they decide when they are brave enough to peek out of their "nests" and eventually come out on their own. When they are brave enough, we move the playpen into the family room where they learn to fly, first by flying from one basket handle to another, or from one playpen to another, eventually from playstand to playstand. As they develop good flying and landing skills we gradually trim their flight feathers so they gain strength and skills without gaining speed. When they are ready, we move them into cages in our parrot playroom. From the time they hatch they are raised with special socializing procedures. Good behavior is lovingly rewarded and boundaries are set at an early age. Our juvenile parrots are exposed to lots of common household items so they are familiar with them. They are socialized with different humans, both men and women. Our parrots are also raised with a variety of other parrots, so they know how to be birds and have bird manners, too.

Our aim in initially putting together this web site was to provide information for anyone interested in keeping parrots.Our site covers a wide variety of species from cockatoos to cockatiels, with information ranging from cockatoo and other parrot suitability (or not) as hand reared pets, species description with photographs, natural habitat, aviary breeding and welfare.We also include on our site, environmental issues such as cockatoo culling, imported parrots, rainforest destruction, and illegal logging.

 
Our objectives are to establish a substantial long term breeding programme with the ultimate aim being to have the capability of re-establishing the species in the wild. Our operation has been running for close to 10 years and consists of a number of substantial breeding aviaries, free flights, a hatchery, nursery, medical laboratory and ancillary buildings that support a large population of Macaws. We are now starting to get into position whereby we are able to consider, Breeding loans, Sales of surplus pairs and babies and Purchase of new bloodlines. Our primary interest will be to support our and other breeding programmes, zoos and private individuals who have similar aims and objectives. Currently we have in excess of 50 entirely separate bloodlines and our intention is to build on this in order to create a diverse population for breeding purposes.

How do we do that - and what makes this site different than the others? First off we are a small family-run business, and don't want to become some huge unreachable, uncaring company. We just want to offer people some quality products that we have found. Secondly, our reputation means everything to us. We realize that with every contact, with every purchase, our reputation and integrity are "on the line". We take that privilege and responsibility very seriously.

Visitor and breeders from other conservation centers around the wold do visit the center on daily bases to learn and share their breeding experiences with local breeder back at the center.
