Hmmm this seems a little overpriced. Perhaps these birds wore golden legbands with diamonds?!

You're right, gold and tiny diamonds on something the size of a parrot leg band still wouldn't be that expensive!

OK then I SERIOSLY doubt that ANYONE will perchase tha too. Sad Sad Sad I thought that a hyineth macaw for $800 was a LOT to ask for but that is practicly FREE compared to this ROYAL [/i] cockatoo. If anyon is looking for a hyineth macaw one is available Cool Cool Cool Cool Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

There are a lot of scammers up to no good trying to say they have Hyacinths for an unreasonably low price. Mad Beware!

I think Hyacinths are about $20K to $30,000 here, because Major mitchels is $15,000.

Yeah, I agree with Julie, like 90% parrot ads on sites like buy and sell, kijiji, and craig's list are scams, be careful.
