Update:
I am going to try everything possible to be at the Springfield Bird Fair, however, I broke my ankle yesterday morning so will be needing help to load and unload birds…
I will update everyone later as to whether I am able to make the fair or not..

Thank you!!!

We will be at the Springfield IL Bird Fair Next Sunday, May 4 at the Route 66 Hotel & Conference Center…

Babies will include cockatiels, sun conures…
Will also be taking reservations on pineapple green cheeks which I will probably have with me hand feeding…

Will also have some adult green cheeks individual and pairs…

We will be cancelling our trim clinics as someone recently broke into our bird shed and for the safety of our birds we feel it is imperative to not bring strangers in anymore…
It is not worth the risk…
We have replaced door locks, as we are having professional security system installed to ensure the safety of not only our home, but mainly our pets….
