Hello! I'm going to be purchasing a QP for my wife and kids (and myself smile.gif ). I haven't found any breeders really close to me. I'm in Peoria, IL. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places! I have been browsing the forum and everyone seems nice and knowledable. I look forward to become a part of the community and sharing our experiences with you all. Thanks!

Hello Willie,

Have you had parrots before? Qp's are great!!!! What made you decide to get a QP? How old are your kids?
Are there other pets in the house. Will you be able to cook with out teflon? LOL ( it took me awhile )

I hope you find your new baby soon. Do you have a cage already picked out?

Welcome to the forum. I was born and raised in Peoria, IL. I moved from there back in 1993. I dont know of any Breeders in Peoria, but I think there is one in Rockford. Try googling Quaker Breeders In Illinois and see what you get. You may also want to try http://www.birdbreeders.com/

I get my baby QP next Wednesday June 25th. Good luck in your search and you will find that everyone here is knowledgable on QP's and will make you feel right @ home. Good luck on your quest.

Hi Willie, Welcome to the forum!!!

I don't live in that area but I wouldn't be surprised if someone on here can steer you in the right direction.

BTW, My QP thinks you have a really wonderful name! biggrin.gif

I am getting a baby Quaker from this aviary. I have been in communication with Autumn, the owner, for weeks now, and am quite pleased with what I know of her. I think she may have a baby ready to go very shortly. She is quite close to you I think.
Tell her Margaret sent you! rolleyes.gif

Hi, I'm Willie's wife Samantha. Thanks for the tip about flyingclrsbirds. We were able to get ahold of her. We will soon be welcoming a QP from her home pretty soon!! We are very excited! laugh.gif My grandma had a QP, so we are somewhat familiar with them. My sons are almost 3 & 5. They got along great with my g-ma's QP, so I'm hoping that we have no problems with a new one. We have no other pets. We are going to look at cages this weekend.

I received my QP MANSION yesterday and was very impressed with the quality and size for $ 159.95 delivered! It's 12 bedrooms, 4 perches and 6 baths! wink.gif







Enjoy your new little "Green Monster"!
