| Queen of Bavaria conures |
 |
|
they are SO beautiful!!!!
but because of the rareity of them, you have to
A. have a license to own them and
B. you have to breed them.....
what's funny is farmers in South America actually consider them agricultural pests!!!
but oh goodness what pretty birds!!!
the average price I've ever seen on just one is $1500 (pricey for a Conure  )
plus the legal fees to get licensed....oh boy.... |

They are beautiful!  Their yellow is just unbelievable! They're supposed to be super super mellow.
I like the smaller conures more though.  |

Really, I didn't know that. The ones I saw were about the size of a TAG, not much bigger...
