jasperk Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 i was just wondering what the price range of a cag is.:cheer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppyparrot Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 £500-£700 in the UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casper Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I paid £800.00 for my first and £750.00 for the youngest. The price depends on where you buy your bird from, either pet shop,breeder or private sale. Also on the age of the bird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 What's that converted to US dollars? hehe. We got our baby for $850US the next day the price advanced to $1200US because they were close to weaning. We took our baby home needing 2 feedings perday but eating food too. Though it seems the recommendation is to purchase fully weaned birds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M2MM Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 The local shop in my area charges $1700 (Canadian Dollars) for a fully weaned baby CAG. I chose to get my TAG from a breeder on the other side of the country for $1150 plus shipping. He was 4+ months old, and a prize winning baby (came with his trophy!)

Talon Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Rikki cost $1400 at 12 weeks from a pet store in MA in the US. I got her for a bargain also..:whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetFX Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 We bought our TAG for $1200. We are getting him from a bird store in NM who got him from FL. There are no breeders around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trustdace Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Well I paid $750 dollars for mine fully weaned from a private breeder of exotic birds. Here where I live in Miami Fla $1,000 is an average price.B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tycos_mom Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I checked a few breeders in the Vancouver Canada area and the average is $1200 for Tags and $1300 to $1500 for Cags I paid $700 for Tyco but shes a rescue. I've also checked out a few pet stores and they run from $1700 to $2500 depending on which store you get it from. I for One would never buy a bird from the pet store I know enough breeders that know even more breeders that I can always find a wonderful baby bird with a devoted breeder looking after it and making sure the baby's get plenty of love and socializing.

frwheel16 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I paid $850.00 and I pick it up Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Mine was R1600, in dollars that would be around $213. Bit cheaper if you are in Africa hey? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppyparrot Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 i got mine for around £550 i think, and i had to wean it for a few weeks. If/when i get my next one, i would get it fully weaned, saves a lot of hassle. :side: But i still LOVE poppy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyric Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Here in Missouri, US, the Congos are between $900-$1200. The TAG's usually are a little cheaper (but I don't know why- they are just as exciting!!) It's interesting how much the price varies for these birds.

Mel Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 It seems TAGS are a lil cheaper here in Houston also. It seems those of you that got your babys for under $1000 either got them from a breeder rather than pet store or not fully weaned, except Africa!

Laurie Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Am I reading this correctly? Klaus was a hand-fed, fully weaned baby and we got him for $600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kittykittykitty Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 They must be MUCH more expensive here in California! The last time I checked they were $2500 and up from a breeder. :ohmy: kittykittykitty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaceyGrey Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 We paid $850 for Lacey 3 weeks ago, fully weaned, from an awesome breeder in Calif. It cost another $175 to have her shipped to Alaska. But as someone else stated....priceless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Kitty^3 - I live in California and paid $950 from a breeder. Are you looking a Pet Stores? $2500 would be an outrgeous price to pay. Unless it came with a huge cage and a 1 karat diamond necklace. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
