ProStock

I got the palm nuts today. Renegade absolutely loves them! She could hardly wait until I cleaned them to dig in! Our hyacinth is a little more skeptical of the new treat, but he is showing some interest. I am sure with a few days passing he will try one too! -Michele

Your welcome! They should be about $4.00 per pound. He said he generally advises to get 25 pounds at a time to make it worth while. I think one person could get 25 pounds and share with another bird lover if 25 pounds is too much at a time. I have plenty of room in my freezer so it shouldn't be a problem for me!

Hi to all, I know that I personally have had trouble getting Palm nuts in the US. I have found a place in California that sells them and I thought I could share that information. The company is Gold Crown Macadamia. I usually get mac nuts from them for our Hyacinth and the last time I placed an order I asked about palm nuts. He is harvesting them now through about Feb. You have to call them and ask for them, they are not on their web site. He told me when you order them he sends someone up the tree to harvest and he ships the same day as harvesting to ensure freshness. I placed an order for them and they should be arriving this week. I am anxious to see if our birds will like them! I have placed several mac nut orders with this company with no problems so I do not anticipate any trouble with this order. Their number is 1-800-344-6887 or 1-760-745-4396 for anyone who is interested!

Thank you to all for your suggestions. Unfortunately, I have indeed done all of them already, most of them twice. I just thought that getting the word out here could be worth a shot. I still hold hope that ProStock is safe somewhere and will come home.

ProStock is a 5 year old Congo that flew away on July 23, 2008 from Northwest Indiana. He is still dearly missed and I still check everywhere for him. I have had him posted on Bird hotline, Parrot911, craigslist, ect., posters in the neighborhood and at local stores and vets. He is microchipped, no band. I am less hopeful each day that he will be returned safely to me but I just can't help thinking if someone found him and brought him in from the weather there is still a chance. Any info on him will be a blessing. Michele
