About Us

[TarrenNToto]

I am a single mother, Tarren is my 5 yr old son and Toto is Tarren's baby tiel. Obviously although Toto is Tarren's bird I am very hands on, but for such a young child Tarren is very good with him. Tarren calls himself "Bird boy". We have had Toto for a little over a month, he was a hand fed/ hand tame baby and he loves his people. Toto is an only FID for now but I am hoping to find a blue head pionus baby in the near future. <3

Welcome
"Bird Boy" that's funny (in a cute way). Blue headed Pi's are beautiful!

So glad you joined us!
I have a blue headed pi and he is awesome! I can't sing his praises enough
They would make a great addition to your family.

Blue headed pi are gorgeous but it is everything I am reading about their personalities that is really drawing me to them. I really want a bird that will not want to be a one person bird, one my son can be hands on with too. We used to have a U2 and my son and that bird were the best of friends, playing together, in the bath together and singing and dancing together.

Any leads on finding a baby BH Pi would be greatly appreciated. I know it is too early in the season for them yet but as hard as they are to find I am trying to locate a breeder now.

I don't think any particular species is necessarily a "one person bird". Sure some are more or less inclined, but early socialization is usually key to making the bird accustomed to people. They may always have a favorite person, but when well socialized to different situations and people, many will also like or at least tolerate handling by others.
Robin my Red Bellied parrot USED TO BE a strict one person bird for most of the nearly 20 years of his life! When he met my husband, wow something happened and I couldn't believe my eyes! Robin is now a two person bird!! I think that is unusual though after that many years.

Now, about the Blue Headed Pi! I love them. They're gorgeous. The good news is, that BH are not terribly hard to find because they're popular (because of their beauty).
I know of a breeder you can try... Another member on this forum is getting a bird from Little Creek Menagerie. I've talked to the breeder before, and he seems pretty nice. Also this other member asked him for references, and he gave good ones right away. Check out his website. Search "little creek menagerie". It looks like they might have Blue Headed available right now? Good luck
