I went down the rabbit hole on Toucans/Aracaris. I searched the site and came up with a few breeders that are in CA, but when digging deeper in my research some red flags popped up with them and I got nervous on the quality of those breeders even though they were recommended here years ago. Curl Crested and Green Aracari are at the top of the list. Any help finding a very reputable breeder would be awesome!

Google Dr. Jason Creen. He's a renowned avian nutritionist who also breeds Aracaris.

A little late to the party, but we got our collared aracari from Emerald Forest and they were awesome to work with. They always have a ton of curls cuz they're definitely the most popular. They actually have some babies right now that are looking for homes. If you want greens, Dr. Crean is a good way to go. I know a few people who have bought from Toucan Jungle in CA and have had positive experiences, but I don't personally have any experience with them. Also check with Jessica Driscoll Hurley (Florida). She's a well-known name in exotic softbills and often has toucans and aracari available.
