(International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) Red List https://www.iucnredlist.org/ ).
We support projects focused on preserving wild populations of endangered parrots and conservation of their native habitat. It is our kuleana (responsibility) to do our part to diversify the genetic pool of captive parrots.
As kama`āina, it is our kuleana (responsibility) to malama (nurture, protect) our native Hawaiian habitat to ensure the survival of native Hawaiian birds, plants, mammals, and invertebrates, many of which are facing extinction. ~Ua Mau ke Ea o ka `Āina i ka Pono (The life of the land is perpetuated by righteousness)~

Our mission is to raise healthy parrots by providing them with a species-specific, varied diet of fresh foods, an enriched environment, and healthcare.
Breeding is NOT our only focus. We also provide sanctuary for parrots who are rescued, surrendered, injured, disabled, elderly, or too old to breed. All parrots are given the same
Our mission is to raise healthy parrots by providing them with a species-specific, varied diet of fresh foods, an enriched environment, and healthcare.
Breeding is NOT our only focus. We also provide sanctuary for parrots who are rescued, surrendered, injured, disabled, elderly, or too old to breed. All parrots are given the same loving care so they can live out their life in a rainforest environment surrounded by their 'adoptive' flock.
Companion parrots (non-threatened/endangered) will be matched with families based on their lifestyle and education will be provided as to the proper care of parrots. Threatened/ endangered species of parrots will be matched/traded with other breeding programs for genetic diversity.
We approach our mission with a spirit of ha`aha`a (humbleness) to make things pono (right) and to live aloha `āina (exist as part of the land). Invasive species of plants will be removed and replaced with native Hawaiian plants in order to conserve the rainforest watershed and provide a natural habitat for native Hawaiian species.

Galahs are a medium sized parrot. Cockatoos in general are sweet and cuddly and are considered louder parrots and need lots of enrichment and wood to chew. Feather and eye coloring changes as they mature. Adult males have black eyes. Adult females have reddish-brown eyes.
- Eastern Sub-species (Eolophus roseicapilla albiceps) aka dark red morph are more rare, are a deep pinkish-red, has a distinct whitish cap, and have a pink orbital eye ring.
- Western sub-species (Eolophus roseicapilla roseicapila) has a broad crest, their pink cheek contrasts with paler hindneck, and have a blue-grey orbital eye ring,
- Northern subspecies (Eolophus roseicapilla kuhli) is the most petite, has a smaller, narrower crest, tend to be a little lighter, and have a prominent red eye ring.
Poicephalus are smaller, quiet parrots who are curious and playful and affectionate with proper socialization.
Eclectus are sexually dimorphic meaning you can easily tell their gender by their coloration. Males are green and females are red and blue or purple.
Golden Conures aka Queen of Bavaria are a strikingly beautiful, medium sized parrot with a big personality. Their coloring predominantly a bright golden-yellow accented by dark green wings. Babies have green mixed in with yellow which will change as they mature. They are very playful, silly, affectionate, and highly intelligent. Like all conures, they can be loud but can also learn to talk quite well They need to be provided with lots of stimulation and a healthy diet to prevent feather picking. They were on the endangered species list for decades but their status was reclassified to threatened in 2018 and no longer require a CITES permit. They are most certainly the pot of gold at the end of the parrot rainbow!
Frequently Asked Questions
Please contact us if you cannot find an answer to your question.
We have a "Closed Aviary" meaning that we do not allow visitors for our bird's safety and protection from disease. Any new birds are quarantined for 45 days for testing and observation. Biosecurity measures have been increased due to detection of bird flu in the wild bird population in Hawai`i.
Yes! Shipping to Neighbor Islands is available: (See details below)
Shipping Vendor: Aloha Air Cargo
Shipping Days: Weekdays only
Shipping Cost: Based on kennel size. Approximately $65 and up
Kennel Cost: Based on kennel size. New kennels $40 and up. Discount for used kennels if available.
Additional Information: All birds shipped interisland must go through Department of Agriculture inspection. 4:00 – 6:45 pm. Then they are checked in at Aloha Air Cargo 2 hours prior to flight. Pickup is half an hour after flight lands.
A 50% non-refundable deposit of the total cost of the bird (including taxes and shipping) will hold your baby bird (Cash, PayPal, Zelle, cashier's check, or money order only). The balance is due upon pick up or prior to shipping of the baby bird. Baby birds must be picked up/shipped within one week of notification that the baby bird is ready to go home. If they are not picked up then you lose your deposit. If you change your mind, then the deposit can be applied to another baby bird if available. See Parrot Purchase Contract for details.
If you want a specific gender of a parrot and the DNA results are pending, you can reserve the bird with a 5% DNA Hold Deposit. For example, let's say you want a male but the DNA results are not in, you can reserve the bird with a DNA Hold Deposit. If the result comes back and the bird is a female, you can either choose to purchase the bird and pay the full deposit minus the DNA Hold Deposit. Or you can choose to pass on buying the bird, but you will forfeit your DNA Hold Deposit because we held this bird just for you. and other interested customers may have purchased another bird instead.
Yes, but you must take your bird to be examined by a qualified avian veterinarian at your expense within 72 hours of receiving the bird. See Parrot Purchase Contract for details on health guarantee.
Sale Pending means that someone has placed a deposit down on a certain bird. This will hold the bird until it's weaned. Once the bird is weaned then the customer has one week to pay the remaining balance and pick up the bird or have the bird shipped. If payment is not made within one week then the customer would lose their deposit and the bird will go back up for sale.
Many bird species are either prohibited entry into Hawaii or may only enter under specific conditions. List of the prohibited and restricted species to make sure that the animal you wish to import into Hawaii can be brought into the State.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON BIRD IMPORTATIONS:
ADVISORY
Due to the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) outbreak occurring in the US Mainland, Poultry and Bird Import Permits (PBIP) may be denied for shipments of hatching eggs, day-old-chicks, poultry and other birds originating within avian influenza control zones or from states involved with significant outbreaks. Call (808) 837-8092 with PBIP requests. To view the USDA list of HPAI outbreak areas, go to: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/livestock-poultry-disease/avian/avian-influenza
If you are importing birds from foreign countries, view USDA requirements at: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel/another-country-to-us-import/birds
Importing poultry and birds from the US Mainland to Hawai`i:
Most birds species, except certain poultry, require two (2) permits (Plant Quarantine Import Permit AND a Poultry and Bird Permit from the Livestock Disease Control Branch. Birds from foreign countries must also comply with U.S. Department of Agriculture regulations, which may be found at: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/import_export/animals/nonus_pet_bird.shtml
To import a bird from the U.S. Mainland, an Import Permit is required in advance of entry through the:
Plant Quarantine Branch
Department of Agriculture
1849 Auiki Street, Honolulu, Hawaii, 96819
E-mail: hdoa.pqpio@hawaii.gov
or go to the Permit Application webpage
The import permit application must be accompanied by a $20 fee (one-time entry) or $100 (multiple entries within 1 year)
LIVESTOCK DISEASE CONTROL BRANCH REQUIREMENTS
General Entry Requirements
As of October 2002, all poultry, birds, day-old chicks and hatching eggs require a Poultry and Bird Import Permit (West Nile Virus Import Permit), through the Livestock Disease Control Branch, Department of Agriculture, to address the West Nile virus epidemic in the continental United States. Most types of birds entering the State must complete a pre-arrival isolation requirement of seven days (168 hours), within 36 hours of entry, to reduce the chances that a West Nile virus infected bird will be transported to Hawaii. The exceptions to the seven days pre-arrival isolation requirement are: hatching eggs and day-old birds, and chickens, pheasants, quail, chuckers, rock doves (domestic pigeons), and budgerigars, that are older than four weeks.
Accredited veterinarians issuing Certificates of Veterinary Inspection or hatchery agents (for hatching eggs and day-old chicks) needing import requirements can contact the Livestock Disease Control Branch, Import and Compliance Section at 808-837-8092 or FAX 808-837-8094 or click here to email for specific entry requirements and to request a Poultry and Bird Import Permit at least ten days prior to the scheduled shipping date of poultry or birds.
Non-Poultry/Other Birds (i.e. Parrots)
Other birds, except budgerigars, require a pre-arrival seven-day (168 hours) isolation from mosquitoes under the supervision of an accredited veterinarian and must enter the State within 36 hours of completing isolation.
In addition, a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) must state that birds were not vaccinated for any disease with a vaccine containing a live agent within 60 days of shipment.
The CVI must also list individual bird identification numbers (leg band, wing band, or electronic microchip) and contain a statement that the birds are “Free of external parasites.” Canaries, finches, budgerigars, lovebirds, cockatiels and doves are exempt from the individual identification requirement. All birds entering the State must be kept in isolation from other resident birds for a period of 30 days at the importer’s premises.
All shipments shall be in mosquito-proof containers that are either new or those thoroughly cleaned to the satisfaction of the accredited veterinarian issuing the CVI.
Importation of animals through the U.S. Postal Service is not allowed except for chicken hatching eggs and day-old chickens.
The Honolulu International Airport is the only entry port for birds and all shipments are subject to inspection at the Airport Animal Quarantine Holding Facility prior to release. An agent of the airline will submit the birds or poultry for inspection. Hours of inspection are 7:45 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Birds not meeting entry requirements will be returned to a port of entry in the continental U.S. or a foreign port in the case of international movement.
