These birds may also be wild caught and died while transporting them to United States. Might have got them for cheap or free, who knows. Even though transporting parrots who are wild caught is illegal this stuff still happens. 
Ew i find this beyond sick

I want all you guys to know how proud I am to be a part of this forum ... a lot of people talk about taking 'initative' but not many people do it, props to you Kelli, and Meghan and the rest of you who have taken the time to e-mail eBay about this ... I mean really, it turned my stomach this morning...

I just got this reply from eBay ... I bet it's generic ... but at least it's something:
Hopefully they will find something that they don't like and all of these listings will be removed ...

here is another response letter
Hi Kelli,
I know about this -- I am on the message board that started the big stink this week. Here's the real tragedy: I personally contacted this man and asked him how his friend came by so many dead birds. He told me that he collected the dead birds over several years from friends at two breeding ranches and that between them they had about 5,000 breeding pairs. Unfortunately, what this man and his "friends" are doing is technically legal.
However, what he is doing is morally reprehensible, so one of our members has notified PETA and API, who are both active in protecting all of the rights of animals. If you would like to voice your support, I would check with PETA or API (www.api4animals.org) directly. You could also send the seller a message through eBay and complain to eBay that you find the auction offensive

Well the good ole UK does it again. I recieved a response from them,
All complaints concerning this user must be sent to Ebay US as we are not linked with them we are not in a position to do anything. WHAT A COP OUT
So if any of you can find me an email address of ebay US then can I please have it.
I have also been cruising round forums, signing up and posting the link so hopefully more and more people will be doing something to stop this.

another letter:
We're trying to see what we can do. Meanwhile you can report the item. At the bottom of the auction there is a "Report this item"
link". That should allow us all to report against this. The more
people to report in, the louder the voice. I copied the link from the
auction:
http://cgi1.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.d...itemid=160097301360&seller=remains4u&active=1

I couldn't exactly find an e-mail addy but I went to contact Us and went to error on the website and got a chance to type an e-mail, so hopefully it will reach someone. I also reported the item.

exactly! good point Meghan!
after doing alot of research and contacting I have decided that the problme is Ebay what he's doing may be legal but we must complain directly to ebay and swamp them with negative feed back. Explain how you find it offensive as your pet bird is every bit as part of your life as a dog or cat and since people don't typically "hunt" parrots like other game fowl parrots should be prohibited.

The guy lives in Riverside, CA. Maybe we could report that to the nearest humane society to look into this "bird ranch" I bet something is not right there.
I'm looking to see if I can find this parrot breeder.
