Dedicated to raising healthy parrots and preserving endangered species.

I am rehoming all of my parrots because my youngest daughter's health has recently gotten worse. She was born with a congenital heart-lung defect and has been hospitalized numerous times ever since she was born, which was no fun for a child or a parent. She has had 3 open heart surgeries, 6 pacemaker implants, and has been on oxygen for many years. We fly to California every few months so she can see her doctors at Stanford Medical Center.
The doctors informed us that there is not much more they can do medically and that my daughter needs a heart-lung transplant. After extensive testing and discussion, she was accepted as a candidate for transplant at Stanford Medical Center in Palo Alto, California. We are projecting to relocate there by January 2026 so she can be listed for transplant. We will have to be there for an indefinite amount of time as she is a hard match due to her highly sensitized immune system from all of her past surgeries and illnesses, but we have to try so she can have a better quality of life and hopefully extend her life. It is very hard for me to let go of all of my parrots but my children and family will always come first.
All proceeds will be going towards the costs associated with relocation for my daughter’s heart-lung transplant. Relocation will be financially challenging because not only will we have to rent a place in California for an indefinite amount of time, but I will also have to continue to pay my mortgage here in Hawaii at the same time. Please spread the word and share my website. Thank for your support, good vibes, positive energy, and prayers, all of which are much appreciated!

Please contact us if you cannot find an answer to your question.
The best way to get an update on the availability of a parrot is to check this website which will be updated several times per day.
I am trying my best to respond within 24 hours. Please be patient as I am flooded with messages and am responding to people in the order their message was received.
Also, keep in mind that I work full time, take care of my parrots and other animals, take my daughter, self, and animals to doctor appointments, and am preparing to move, so I really am doing the best that I can.
All offers will be taken into consideration, however due to an overwhelming outpour of interest, parrots with multiple interested parties will go to the party with the offer at or closest to the asking price and/or the home that is the best fit.
PRICES OF HANDFED BABY PARROTS ARE NON-NEGOTIABLE.
First, make a video appointment (Zoom/Facetime) to view the parrot(s) you are interested in.
After the video appointment, if you saw a parrot(s) you like and want to see them up close, then you may make an in-person appointment.
Appointment Availability (certain times may not be available due to pre-existing appointments or work meetings):
Monday to Friday: 8 am - 2 pm (Last appointment at 1 pm)

A 50% non-refundable deposit of the total cost of the parrot (including shipping costs) will reserve a specific parrot and it will be marked as reserved on the website. If you change your mind, then the deposit can be applied to another parrot if available, but it will not be refunded.
Balance is due upon pick up or prior to shipping of the bird.
Payment Methods: Cash, PayPal, Zelle, Cashier's Check, or Money Order ONLY.
Handfed Baby Parrots must be picked up/shipped within one week of notification that the baby parrot is ready to go home. If they are not picked up then you lose your deposit.
If you want a specific gender of a parrot and the DNA results are pending, you can reserve the bird with a 5% DNA Hold Deposit. For example, let's say you want a male but the DNA results are not in, you can reserve the bird with a DNA Hold Deposit. If the result comes back and the bird is a female, you can either choose to purchase the bird and pay the full deposit minus the DNA Hold Deposit. Or you can choose to pass on buying the bird, but you will forfeit your DNA Hold Deposit because we held this bird just for you. and other interested customers may have purchased another bird instead.
Yes! Shipping to Neighbor Islands is available:
Shipping Vendor: Aloha Air Cargo

The health of your parrot is guaranteed, but you must take your bird to be examined by a qualified avian veterinarian at your expense within 72 hours of receiving the bird.
All parrots entering the aviary have undergone a 45-day quarantine and disease testing. Any suspected or known health conditions will be disclosed prior to purchase.
Reserved means that someone has placed a 50% deposit down on a certain parrot. This will hold or reserve the parrot until the balance is paid off or it is weaned. Once the parrot is weaned then the customer has one week to pay the remaining balance and pick up the parrot or have it shipped. If payment is not made within one week then the customer would lose their deposit and the parrot will be relisted.
We have a "Closed Aviary" meaning that we do not allow visitors for our parrot's safety and protection from disease. Any new parrots are quarantined for 45 days for testing and observation. Biosecurity measures have been increased due to detection of bird flu in the wild bird population in Hawai`i.

Due to the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) outbreak occurring in the US Mainland, Poultry and Bird Import Permits (PBIP) may be denied for shipments of hatching eggs, day-old-chicks, poultry and other birds originating within avian influenza control zones or from states involved with significant outbreaks. Call (808) 837-8092 with PBIP requests. To view the USDA list of HPAI outbreak areas, go to: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/livestock-poultry-disease/avian/avian-influenza
If you are importing birds from foreign countries, view USDA requirements at: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel/another-country-to-us-import/birds
Most birds species, except certain poultry, require two (2) permits (Plant Quarantine Import Permit AND a Poultry and Bird Permit from the Livestock Disease Control Branch. Birds from foreign countries must also comply with U.S. Department of Agriculture regulations, which may be found at: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/import_export/animals/nonus_pet_bird.shtml
To import a bird from the U.S. Mainland, an Import Permit is required in advance of entry through the:
Plant Quarantine Branch
Department of Agriculture
1849 Auiki Street, Honolulu, Hawaii, 96819
E-mail: hdoa.pqpio@hawaii.gov
or go to the Permit Application webpage
The import permit application must be accompanied by a $20 fee (one-time entry) or $100 (multiple entries within 1 year)
As of October 2002, all poultry, birds, day-old chicks and hatching eggs require a Poultry and Bird Import Permit (West Nile Virus Import Permit), through the Livestock Disease Control Branch, Department of Agriculture, to address the West Nile virus epidemic in the continental United States. Most types of birds entering the State must complete a pre-arrival isolation requirement of seven days (168 hours), within 36 hours of entry, to reduce the chances that a West Nile virus infected bird will be transported to Hawaii. The exceptions to the seven days pre-arrival isolation requirement are: hatching eggs and day-old birds, and chickens, pheasants, quail, chuckers, rock doves (domestic pigeons), and budgerigars, that are older than four weeks.
Accredited veterinarians issuing Certificates of Veterinary Inspection or hatchery agents (for hatching eggs and day-old chicks) needing import requirements can contact the Livestock Disease Control Branch, Import and Compliance Section at 808-837-8092 or FAX 808-837-8094 or click here to email for specific entry requirements and to request a Poultry and Bird Import Permit at least ten days prior to the scheduled shipping date of poultry or birds.
Other birds, except budgerigars, require a pre-arrival seven-day (168 hours) isolation from mosquitoes under the supervision of an accredited veterinarian and must enter the State within 36 hours of completing isolation.
In addition, a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) must state that birds were not vaccinated for any disease with a vaccine containing a live agent within 60 days of shipment.
The CVI must also list individual bird identification numbers (leg band, wing band, or electronic microchip) and contain a statement that the birds are “Free of external parasites.” Canaries, finches, budgerigars, lovebirds, cockatiels and doves are exempt from the individual identification requirement. All birds entering the State must be kept in isolation from other resident birds for a period of 30 days at the importer’s premises.
All shipments shall be in mosquito-proof containers that are either new or those thoroughly cleaned to the satisfaction of the accredited veterinarian issuing the CVI.
Importation of animals through the U.S. Postal Service is not allowed except for chicken hatching eggs and day-old chickens.
The Honolulu International Airport is the only entry port for birds and all shipments are subject to inspection at the Airport Animal Quarantine Holding Facility prior to release. An agent of the airline will submit the birds or poultry for inspection. Hours of inspection are 7:45 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Birds not meeting entry requirements will be returned to a port of entry in the continental U.S. or a foreign port in the case of international movement.

Hānau (Birth)
Aloha Kākou (greetings to all of you). This is a relatively small, family run aviary. We have been raising manu pāloke (parrots) since the 1980's. I am a doctoral- prepared, assistant professor who retired from the University of Hawai`i at Manoa and am well-versed in research and evidence-based practice. I use the naʻauao (knowledge/ wisdom) I have gained to better the lives of the manu pāloke (parrots) who have been entrusted to my care.
Once upon a time, nestled in the piko (heart) of the Ahupua`a Kahalu`u in the Ko`olaupoko Moku where the Ka`alaea stream runs from the Ko`olau mountains to the sea, an Enchanted Rainforest Aviary was born. ~Me ke aloha ku`u home 'o Kahalu`u ~ Olomana 1975~
Ho`ola`a (Dedication)
We would like to dedicate the `āina (land) with which my `ohana (family) has been blessed to the preservation of threatened, vulnerable, and endangered species of manu pāloke (parrots) and to the conservation of the native Hawaiian rainforest and its native inhabitants.
~Mahalo Ke Akua (Thanks be to God for everything)~
Our vision is to develop a breeding program focused on the preservation of threatened, vulnerable, and endangered species of manu pāloke (parrots), although we have other species under our wings, and the advancement of psittacultural science. (International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) Red List https://www.iucnredlist.org/ ).
We support projects focused on preserving wild populations of endangered manu pāloke (parrots) and conservation of their native habitat. It is our kuleana (responsibility) to do our part to diversify the genetic pool of captive manu pāloke (parrots).
As kama`āina, it is our kuleana (responsibility) to malama (nurture, protect) our native Hawaiian habitat to ensure the survival of native Hawaiian birds, plants, mammals, and invertebrates, many of which are facing extinction. ~Ua Mau ke Ea o ka `Āina i ka Pono (The life of the land is perpetuated by righteousness)~
Our mission is to raise healthy manu pāloke (parrots) by providing them with a species-specific, varied diet of fresh foods, an enriched environment, and healthcare.
Breeding is NOT our only focus. We also provide sanctuary for parrots who are rescued, surrendered, injured, disabled, elderly, or too old to breed. All parrots are given the same loving care so they can live out their life in a rainforest environment surrounded by their 'adoptive' flock.
Companion manu pāloke (parrots) (non-threatened/ endangered) will be matched with families based on their lifestyle and education will be provided as to the proper care of manu pāloke (parrots). Threatened/endangered species of manu pāloke (parrots) will be matched/ traded with other breeding programs for genetic diversity.
We approach our mission with a spirit of ha`aha`a (humbleness) to make things pono (right) and to live aloha `āina (exist as part of the land). Invasive species of plants will be removed and replaced with native Hawaiian plants in order to conserve the rainforest watershed and provide a natural habitat for native Hawaiian species.

Standard Testing included:
Additional Testing $24.50 - $30.00 per test:
Galahs are a medium sized parrot. Cockatoos in general are sweet and cuddly and are considered louder parrots and need lots of enrichment and wood to chew. Feather and eye coloring changes as they mature. Adult males have black eyes. Adult females have reddish-brown eyes.
Poicephalus are smaller, quiet parrots who are curious and playful and affectionate with proper socialization.
Eclectus are sexually dimorphic meaning you can easily tell their gender by their coloration. Males are green and females are red and blue or purple.
Golden Conures aka Queen of Bavaria are a strikingly beautiful, medium sized parrot with a big personality. Their coloring predominantly a bright golden-yellow accented by dark green wings. Babies have green mixed in with yellow which will change as they mature. They are very playful, silly, affectionate, and highly intelligent. Like all conures, they can be loud but can also learn to talk quite well They need to be provided with lots of stimulation and a healthy diet to prevent feather picking. They were on the endangered species list for decades but their status was reclassified to threatened in 2018 and no longer require a CITES permit. They are most certainly the pot of gold at the end of the parrot rainbow!
