Bird pairs, already best friends.

Two birds that have chosen each other: they preen one another, share food, perch side by side and call when they're apart. Ours were raised at the aviary and are sold together, so they're never separated.

If you're home most of the day, a single bird will bond closely with you. If you work or study away from home, a bonded pair keeps each other company, so neither gets lonely. We'll help you decide at your meetup.

Yes, with regular handling. A pair is naturally a little more focused on each other than a single bird, so daily time with you keeps them friendly. Ours are hand-raised, so they start out tame.

A bonded pair isn't always a male and a female, and the pairs listed here are young birds, not proven breeders. If you're looking for a breeding pair, tell Sherwin what you're after and he'll let you know what he has.

Go for the widest cage you can fit, so both birds can fly between perches, with two sets of food and water bowls so neither has to wait its turn. Add plenty of toys to share.

It depends on the species, age and colour, so we don't post prices online. Message Sherwin on Viber or Facebook for a quote on any pair, then meet them in person before you decide.
