I have always wanted a Meyers parrot, and am finally ready to get one. This will be my only bird. However, I'm finding it extremely hard to find a good breeder. The ones I know of have since retired or stopped breeding.

Does anyone know of breeders in the United states, who offer shipping? I'm in Oklahoma.

Thank you!

Have you Googled this? You could try birdbreeders.com and hookbillsforsale.com; however, I can't speak to the quality of the breeders there. It seems as though the vast majority of quality breeders have passed or retired. The only breeder of the top of my head that I'd buy from is JC Aviary in Texas; I don't know if they have any Meyers available. You could call and get on their list.

Jean is either retiring very soon, or already has. I am not sure if she still has birds for sale.

The phone number is still active . Perhaps if they don't they can direct you to a breeder

I have tried emailing and contacting several of the ones mentioned, with no response. I am kind of taking it as a sign.

I have decided to maybe go for a crimson belly instead. I really want a Meyers, but don't really want to ship.

I would like to be able to interact with the bird and see if one chooses me/our family.

I do have a really great crimson belly and green cheek conure breeder near me. My last bird, Mochi, was a disabled GCC that passed a couple months ago due to all of his deformities and inbreeding. He was truly a dream bird, and it was absolutely devastating for my family. I can't even begin to explain the impact he had on my family. I feel like we truly got lucky with him, as I can't even make a single complaint about him. He was a love bug and so funny and involved in every aspect of our life, down to laughing along to his and my son's favorite anime. So, I am not really disappointed to go with another GCC or a CBC, I just wanted to attempt getting my dream bird, but then again our little Mochi was our dream bird despite not being a Meyers.

I waited a long time to get my heart species, and I wish I hadn't. I had/have absolute loves of other species .

I'm so sorry for your loss. Parrots are unbelievably special
