Anyone bought a bird with this company before www.forestryparrotsbreeder.com ??? I’ve researched and I can’t find any scams reported so it’s supposedly legit but I’m skeptical on it, wondered if anyone in here has a success story?

It looks very shaky to me. Their written English is pretty ordinary and they purport to be selling a black palm cockatoo for only $1300 - I don't think so!!! Plus there's this, offering to sell you an egg for you to raise yourself ...

... the most MASSIVE of red flags!

I have to agree with LaManuka above. Run away. Far, far away. Unless of course you have interest in losing a bunch of your money. Waaaaay too many red flags.

That’s what I through! Another scam! But the website has been in existence since 2012.

They might say 2012, but it's actually only been registered since late September. Two months, not 12 years. Nope!

The reddest of red flags is the part about selling fertile parrot eggs. No proper or ethical breeder would ever do this, and it confirms that the remainder of the website is scammy as well.

How to I look up website and how long theyve been in existence?
