Where are all the Dusky's?

[ShreddedOakAviary]

I have been trying to find a Dusky Pionus for 3 YEARS. The only breeder I can find makes me nervous because she seems kind of like a dishonest person. Anyone have a Dusky for sale?

Where are you located?
edit: Is this the breeder you found? http://the-bird-hut.com/shop/

They have Dusky Conures, but I'm looking for a Dusky Pionus.

Nebraska. It used to be believed that the Coral bill pionus was the most rare, but the fact is that the Dusky is considered the most rare of the pionus. 3 years ago a lady gave me her cage aggressive Dusky. I tamed him and really came to love him, so I started looking for another (to breed) and NEVER found one. They are such a WONDERFUL bird, the smallest and quietest of the pionus. I don't want to see them essentially dissapear from the captive trade in the US (not to mention he looks so lonely ), so I've been trying to find a female.

I found this breeder in South Dakota, and if it's too far to drive, she does do shipping. Unless this is the breeder you were referring to not trusting. Cockatiels for Sale at Feather Focus

Nope, she has dusky pionus. Im not sure if she breeds them anymore but she posted here on the 3rd that she was selling a proven pair for $400 BirdBreeders.com :: The Bird Hut - , Dickson, TN 37055 Baby Birds

That would be great! I am looking for another female. I can send money to you to pick one up depending on cost. Just message me and I'll give you my number if you find one and we can work the details (if you se another). Thanks!

I'm in the market for a pair of two of dusky pionus or dusky headed conures with a major preference on getting the pionus. If you find any adults take or otherwise for sale let me know! I'd be interested in chicks too but not as much as adults. Thank you!
