Rook Babies!!! --- We have raised a large variety of corvid species and found the Rook to be the very best pet quality of them all. They are one of the only TRULY colonial species of corvids and are therefore extremely gregarious. We will be selling ONLY a few babies so it's a first come basis. $1,200 each.

2.0 Handfed Giant Woodrails ! Email for pricing

Hope I've helped you all!

hey thanks for posting this list but i have already tried everyone on the list.gary green sold his breeding stock and is no longer breeding birds,and all the other breeders either have nothing till next year or are no longer in business,the internet is in serious need of updated info on current corvid breeders.from what i know,the corvid ranch is the only place that will take a deposit on a bird for next year(and he wont even guarantee that hell have one)all others are dead links.just thought id post a heads up for anyone trying to find a corvid.actually iv been searching for so long and iv determined that its basically hopeless.im going to try my hand at importing a pair of ravens from africa,if found a corvid breeder there that sells 4 types of captive breed ravens and one of the species he carries is available in albino,and at african prices you can afford to take a risk .the price is no way near the 1500-2000 that american breeders want.i wouldnt reccomend this to everyone looking for a corvid but im in the import-export business(customs broker)so im familiar with importing.the only problem is the 30 day hold the bird will have at customs to get a clean bill of health before he can be released.ill post an update and pics next month when he arrives.
