Unfortunately, parrots in the wild are facing extinction. The causes of this are mostly man-made, because they have a destroyed the habitat, food supplies, and capture many birds for the pet trade. Importing wild parrots is now illegal in both Europe and America, so if you would like a pet parrot you will have to go to one of the available parrot breeder. Many of the breeders also supply pet stores, and this will be another option to buy your pet parrot.

For many reasons, parrots can actually be lousy pets for some people.This is mainly due to the fact they either die immediately or live as long as a human being. It is said that Winston Churchill had a parrot called Charlie which swore like a trooper and lived for more than a hundred years. They are also very smart and get bored easily, so they often wind up getting into trouble.

The brings many parrot breeders to a very important ethical issue. Which is a small percentage of human beings should not have parrots as pets. It's a shame, but many parrots are unfortunately abandoned sooner or later. If you made a decision to become a parrot breeder, many sure you find good homes for the babies. This means you should offer to have the baby back, if in the future the person can no longer look after it.

Some species, like the hyacinth macaw are near to extinction both in the wild and captivity, even so there are not enough homes for those in captivity. Often times people only become parrot breeders after they rescue some of these birds, then suddenly there laying eggs.

Also, good parrot breeders are trying to end the sales to pets stores, so they can pick the individuals they would like their baby parrots to go to. They are also hopeful that with the right education more people who know how to take care of parrots.
