Mira, that is really great of you to take in those birds! I have a friend who goes to the pound and only ever adopts dogs over 7 years of age. She says that she may not have them long but their final months/years will be the best of their lives. It always makes me cry to see all the photos of the dogs she's saved over the years.

The breeder I got Alex from (He's a Jendaya) had some GCC for around $150-$250AUD depending on colour. They were beautiful little guys!

$100, from a "breeder" off craigslist.
Was basically just some guy who had a pair that hatched an egg.

Mira, good on your for saving the birds.

Mira, that is really great of you to take in those birds! I have a friend who goes to the pound and only ever adopts dogs over 7 years of age. She says that she may not have them long but their final months/years will be the best of their lives. It always makes me cry to see all the photos of the dogs she's saved over the years.

Thank you both!

Something you have to consider is while money is a huge factor in owning a pet... the right pet might cost you a pretty penny so don't be surprised at the price if you come across the perfect friend. there were a lot of conures for 100-175 at the place I got Lucy from, but I fell in love with her, and her price tag didn't even factor into me choosing her.

I love Pet Paradise so much. It's full of good knowledgeable people. You can look them up on Facebook :) I'm so happy I went to them, they've answered every single question I've had :)

I did they look awesome :)
I hope that my mom lets me go!!! I told her what its called and she said she doesnt want to go to a "pet store" because they dont have knowledge about all the animals. Pshh doesnt sound like Pet Paradise from what you said.

I think I am going to pay 150 for my baby. I am probably going here: About Us

Locally, there are several breeders. The GCC I'm picking up Monday is $100, from one of the other breeders, 200$ with a three year health guarantee.

Just saw a GCC on kijiji for $100. 6 month old, normal green, tame, male, comes with a 4 month old 4' x 5' x 6' cage. Now that's a deal! Talked to the owner, she seems legit.

Y'all should come to Canada to get your GCC's. They're really cheap here (I wish I could say the same with other birds).
