- Title: Cinnamon Dominant Pied Female Kakariki
- Name: Bailey Henderson
- Location: St. Louis, Missouri
- Incredibly sweet and beautiful cinnamon pied kakariki female, hatched 3/5/2023 and closed-banded. She was not hand-fed but is very tame, gentle, curious, and spirited. Mom is wild-type, dad is cinnamon split turquoise, and though he shows now pied, must be SF dominant pied in order to throw this strikingly marked chick. Dad is a massive bird, mom is good-sized as well and is without a doubt the best mother kakariki in my entire aviary. I have been very tempted to keep this bird since she has such a wonderful personality, but I am trying to cut back on visual mutations as much as possible. She would make an excellent pet, breeder, or both. Price is $400. Shipping is available via Delta Airlines Cargo for a flat rate of $185. USPS shipping is not available.

Sales Policies:
Please read prior to contacting me as many common questions are answered below.
- Please ask for a list of references if you would like to confirm my legitimacy as a breeder/seller before purchase; I am happy to share this.
- I can ship birds via Delta Airlines Cargo from St. Louis, MO, for a flat rate of $185; this includes a shipping crate (small plastic and metal pet taxi) prepared to Delta's specifications which you can keep. Live animal shipping with Delta Airlines Cargo is same-day. If a Delta Airlines Cargo flight exists between my airport (STL) and an airport near you, you will pick up the bird at a pre-determined time at your airport's Delta Cargo facility.
- I will not ship via USPS. This is risky, not allowed under USPS animal shipping rules, and hookbills can easily chew a hole through a cardboard USPS bird shipping box and escape.
- Payment for bird(s) must be made in full at least 48 hours prior to shipping.
- Unless and until payment is made, birds are not considered reserved or sold to any interested party. In other words, there will be no holds on birds without payment.
- All payments are non-refundable if the buyer decides they no longer wants the bird(s) purchased.
- In an emergency, I can take back a bird that has been purchased by a customer, but unless I communicate otherwise, I cannot buy back a bird because a customer decides they no longer want the bird.
- Please note that because raising birds is not my full-time job and because more urgent life events may manifest that have to take precedence, shipping dates may be subject to rescheduling and I do not consider rescheduling within a reasonable time frame (two weeks or less) a valid reason to demand a refund.
- I cannot ship on Saturdays or Sundays as my airport's Delta Cargo facility is closed on those days.
- Shipments are insured for the full value of birds being shipped.
- I stand by the statement that my birds are healthy when they leave my hands at Delta Cargo. Unfortunately I have no control over what happens during the shipping process. If you receive birds DOA and there is evidence that death occurred due to mishandling, Delta must reimburse the cost of bird and refund the shipping price, though DOA events are extremely rare.
- As soon as you receive your bird, please inspect and observe him/her carefully and notify me immediately if you notice something amiss or suspect the bird is sick or injured, along with photo and/or video evidence as support, and I will work with you to identify the problem, treat the bird, administer a refund, or replace the bird if I feel the fault can be logically traced to me or Delta Airlines. Situations of this nature are always unique and generally unexpected, so I cannot establish a cut-and-dry protocol for every possible mishap, but I can assure you that I will respond to the situation in a responsible and reasonable manner that aims to correct any problems and make the shipping process as risk-free for the customer as possible.
