Bird Breeders Often Start Out As Quaker Parrot Breeders
Quaker parrots often are called by many other names, such as Monk parrot or Grey-Breasted Parakeet. Quaker parrot breeders are often called by many other names, too, but we can’t print any of them here. One of the problems some people have with Quaker parrot breeders is that this is one of the breeds that novice bird breeders start out with. Getting your pet bird from a novice Quaker parrot breeder has its advantages and disadvantages.
Some Advantages
Some advantages of dealing with a novice Quaker parrot breeder is that they don’t charge as much and they can be easily intimidated. Also, for practical purposes, novices also have a tendency to really put a lot of attention and time into the first couple clutches of parrot chicks they raise.
These novice Quaker parrot breeders will often be so gung-ho to make a name for themselves and their birds that they will take the babies from the parents and hand raise them. Hand raised parrot chicks are often a lot more tame than their bird-reared kin, but they can become imprinted on people ? especially one person ? and suddenly not be interested in other people (including the new owner) or any other Quaker parrots you try to have live with them.
Some Disadvantages
For the novice pet bird owner, the disadvantages of dealing with a novice Quaker parrot breeder or novice Senegal parrot breeder outweigh the advantages. Although a Quaker parrot breeder could be well read and well informed about Quaker parrots, until they actually raise a few chicks, they really don’t know what they’re doing. No amount of book-learning can deal with the actual experience.
Also, many inexperienced Senegal and Quaker parrot breeders do not realize that they should offer a solid contract with their chicks ? and then be able to stand behind that contract. Excellent Quaker parrot breeders will answer questions about health, training and behavior of the birds at no extra cost ? and some don’t seem to realize that their service to you does not end when the check clears.
Other disadvantages are that many backyard or novice Quaker parrot breeders really shouldn’t be breeding birds at all. Good novices will be honest and maybe even give the birds away ? as long as they have checked out that you are a good home. But others are just interested in any money they can get and then they never want to hear from you again.
