I am not real familiar with breeders in your area, we are about six hours away in Missouri and I might be able to find some in the St.Louis Mo area or in the KC, MO area but not in Illinois. Have you checked with your local bird club or a local avian vet? Usually those are the two best places for find a reputable breeder. Most bird clubs will know who actually does well with their birds and what types of birds they raise. If you don't know of any local bird clubs I would be happy to look them up and let you know
