We are a small breeding operation located in Oregon. We have been breeding Quaker Parakeets since 1971, when our first pair was acquired in a trade for two baby Cockatiels! That first pair promptly presented us with a clutch of adorable youngsters, and the love affair with the species began! Those fat faced little darlings were so cute, and responsive to attention, that they quickly became favorites with all who saw them.

In the "early days" the babies we raised were sold as pets, and we constantly heard stories of their intelligence and subsequent charming antics. It soon became apparent that they had a definite place as companion birds for bird lovers of all ages......Then, in 1989, we managed to acquire some Blue Mutation Quakers. These Blue Quakers were very rare in the USA at that time, and we soon had many requests to supply other breeders with stock for their aviaries. These requests prompted us to move from working with pets, to producing limited numbers of quality breeding stock for other Aviculturists to work with.

In 1993 we were able to import the Cinnamon Mutation from Europe, thereby enabling us to introduce the Cinnamon Blue and Cinnamon Green Quakers to USA Aviculture.  

Since that time, we have had the distinction of breeding and establishing the FIRST recessive Lutino, Albino, and Grey Factor Quakers in the USA. We sincerely hope that you enjoy these lovely (we think!) colors as much as we do, and encourage you to communicate with us regarding them. Color genetics are a passion here!          

Please note that we do not sell pet birds, we only sell breeding stock.
