Legit Bird Breeder?

[jjjoo_98!!]

Hello everyone, I am new here and own 3 parrots. I have a sun conure, green cheek, and a cockatiel.
I am looking to get a Quaker from ‘Pretty exotic birds LLC’ and get it shipped to my state. There is not many reviews for me to trust. I tried to look on Google and it’s saying it’s a scam but I need other opinions.

Hi @jjoo_98!! and welcome to the forums! While I cannot give a personal guarantee for this particular seller, I'm not seeing a lot of the usual red flags on their website, such as all birds available at all times, or the BIG one, selling parrot eggs which would normally get a seller immediately banned if they were to show up here. I also found some Google reviews which seemed to be positive, although again I cannot verify that they are definitely genuine reviews. The only thing I have not been able to pin down yet is a physical address, so perhaps you might be able to look for one and Google it to see if it looks legit? Other than that, if you buy from them perhaps use a credit card so you would hopefully have some redress through them or your bank if it is a scam. I wish you the best of luck!

I looked at their website. I wouldn't buy from them because they have no health guarantee and an as is clause. I understand birds can be delicate but they should be able to at least say the bird is free of disease and infection with a vet visit withing a certain number of days. They also breed a lot of different species a dozen i think if you go to their site. They either must have a large aviary or have only one pair of each. I prefer people that have a few different species with a couple pairs of each as I feel they are more specialized and knowledgeable in what they do keep. I do think they would ship you a bird.

Hii, sorry for the late response but I got a update finally. I reached out to them and they seemed very friendly. They answered any questions and doubts i had and where willing to facetime me as soon some babies are availble after hatching.
I hope that helps!
