About Mick & Ann

Pet Birds and Parrots is an Online Melbourne based Business run by passionate and caring breeders. Mick & Ann created Lifestyle Birds which has grown to be Pet Birds and Parrots with the aim to deliver to you the ultimate bird companion and to simplify your desire and journey in obtaining your Pet Bird.  We have over 20 years experience delivering Pet Birds throughout Australia, by Road and predominantly Air Freight.  ​ Our business began when people contacted us seeking help after purchasing a Pet Bird elsewhere, their bird was not friendly or social, on a poor diet, flights clipped, couldn't fly and most times their bird wasn't eating, stressful for both the bird and the new owners. Many Birds ended up in Rescue Centres and with Vets. We saw a great need for people to learn more about having a Pet Bird and most of all having fun, it should never be a stressful experience for your new feathered friend and your family. Mick & I felt we could do this better for both the Bird and the new owners and set up Pet Birds and Parrots and we have successfully provided a great relationship a wonderful enjoyable journey for both the new Pet Bird and everyone to enjoy.  Pet Birds will make you laugh and are so intelligent.

Select the right Pet Bird for your lifestyle Firstly you will have your Pet Bird for at least 15,20, 30  years or more so it is very important you are prepared and committed to looking after your Pet Bird. In selecting your first Pet Bird, do your research, ensure you buy from a reputable breeder, buy from experienced breeders, make sure your Pet Bird has been Hand Raised, ensure you get a well natured Pet Bird to suit your family and lifestyle. Do not choose a Pet Bird because someone recommended you buy without checking that Pet Bird will be suitable for you and your family.
