I also agree with GoDiego... It's not the money, it's helping the bird, if one can do it...We've only sold 5 birds in our career. If we have the money, we buy the bird, then do all we can to help it, "if" we can't keep the bird,"if" it can be re-homed, we do it for free. Parrot's are unique unto themselves, sometimes they live, sometimes they don't, some improve, some don't, it doesn't matter, the bird is all that counts. We all have are own feelings and beliefs, I will not judge you for what you believe, or do. Thank You Jay
