Hyacinth macaw's are actually affordable here!!

[DannyA93]

So i was looking at this website and figured out i could get hyacinths for 200.00!! WHAT?! haha or free with adoption! and there babies! just weaned! you have no idea how bad i wish i had a stable place to live for one D:< i live with my mom right now and he would fit very handsomely into this home but then in august im more then likely gonna live in a dorm....SOOO now you see my problem! ugh the universe hates me.. i can't even get my sun conure because of the same reasons..

 

[Mayden]

I don't believe it, I think it's more likely to be a scam. Could you pm me the website so I can check it out?

 

[cdog]

That is almost certainly a scam, hyacinth babies go for $10,000. I would stay away from that site.

I see babies here in the uk for around £20,000! that's almost $31,000! For one!

Wow! I guess you wont be getting one.lol.

 

[Mozzie]

Yeah, I think cdog has it right. I'll bet it is a scam. There are lots of scams on exotic parrots on the internet so you have to be very careful. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

 

[luvmytooo]

Its really got to be a scam , lolol.
If I had that money to throw out , I would say , yeah , I'll take two !
And see what I end up getting , lolol. More then likely two stuffed animals
with a couple of feathers and pellets thrown in for good measure....
But I dont own a mansion and a yacht

Hyacinth Macaw Parrots Ready for any Good Home a Male and a Female


Is this the site you're referring to? If so, I just sent them an e-mail. Let's see what they have to say. Mwahahahahhaha

 

[Sulphiria]

We had an ad like that on craigslist not long ago... heres the response i got:

hello, sorry for the late reply, check their pics and let me know if you love them and how we are going to do it okay because am presently located in SEATTLE WA now with the Macaws. Because if you are coming for pickup you will pay just a little rehoming fee of 150$ for one parrot but if you can not make it here, no problem i can arrange the shipping and the shipping company will contact you on how to pay 230$ to them to bring one parrot home and 460$ for both parrots. If you have any questions of doubt for clarification, let me know. Best regards and stay bless.

I replied and told them my sister lives in seattle and will come pick them up for me, to give me contact info or an address, and never got a response

Yeah, I'd have to steal eggs or something if I ever planned on a hyacinth. Good thing I can't deal with macaw noise

I'll stick to getting my much less expensive cockatoo/grey/meyers
