Breeding cockatiels.

[tim0398]

Hi there,
I need a little help, I was wodnering if there were any other breeders that could give me some tips and tricks to finding good breeders, and if anyone knew of any sites to find rare cockatiels, I have searched through hoobly but some of those birds look a little sickly on there. I would love to find someone who raises or sells rare cockatiels. Also anyone have any advice on shipping birds, or buying them from people who do ship there birds.
Thanks so much
Tim

I breed alot of SFDS (single factor dominant silvers in both WF and normals, pastelface, a couple of fallows and DYC.

Why do you want to breed the rares? There used to be a real good market for them, but that is days gone by. To the average person they could care less on mutation...and more on personality and pet qualities.

Shipping birds is safe and easy. Airlines, such as Delta are the major airlines used to ship birds. in most instances the buyer pays for the shipping.

A good place to start is BirdBreeders.com - Bird Breeders Directory of Availability and Parrot Breeders
I have bought there from several breeders and had always a good experience.
