How much did you pay for your zon

BAHAHAHAHHA, Belgaram, did you take a picture of the price list at Bird Paradise? :D
 
I can neither confirm nor deny as it may incriminate me.....

I shall plead the 5th.

But I do love Bird Paradise. Headed there Saturday :)
 
I was going to say those look like bird shop prices. I paid 600 for my sennie at a bird shop. I knew good and well it was almost double the going rate, but sometimes you fall in love.... Whatcha gonna do? :)
 
Wish i could get those prices for my birds.

You know what gets me the most is that many birds (at the place I mentioned) actually SELL for that amount. In fact, CAGs literally FLY out that place in no time. :11: Many Amazons do, too. And they can't keep up with the demand for big mac babies either. :11:
 
Didn't pay a penny for my boy, the owner decided she wanted rid and that was that. He'd have gone to the first person willing so we took him in as foster and 2 years later he is still here lol!

So true!!! The only birds that seem to hang around are the smaller guys for the most part. The exception would be older macs and the hys that take a while due to the price. But I swear they have even sold at least 4 hys there in the last year. I was dying for them to get baby blue throats or ekkies in, but every time they do, they are sold before they leave the nursery!!
 
I adopted my Sammie, and he is just like adopting a child and I am so happy he is a member of our family :-)
 
I paid $200 for my BFA 14 years ago, he was 4 months old at the time.

I have three Zons. I paid only $500 for the chaco bluefront, $1,000 for the double yellow head and $750 for the yellow nape. They cost more then that now, but I had a friend who always gave me good deals.

I got my bfa for $400 with a cage on Craigslist. He was posted at $609 but I talked the owner down.
 
I have had a total of eight amazons - counting fosters.

I never paid a dime for any of them, unless you count vet bills...

Hot 3 amazons are, unfortunately, high on the list of "frequently dumped" parrots. (For some reason, it's usually during breeding season - Go figure!)

Most folks just don't get their seasonal personality shifts... and the bird suffers for it. Plus they usually don't get handled enough.
 
George was $1250 at a pet store in CA in 1990. He was 2 years old at the time. My dad went there to get some food for my budgie and met his new best friend (for life!) George the YNA.
