Safe and Comfortable Shipping process
Parrots aren’t vases or art supplies, so when you hear that he or she can be shipped to you, your first reaction is probably shock. Before you panic, get that picture of cardboard boxes and foam peanuts out of your mind! Shipping parrots is usually quite safe and any airlines or trucking companies that take live animals have procedures in place to be sure they arrive in good health.
Airlines will either ship parrots in the cargo compartment which sounds a bit callous and scary, but is actually fairly safe and comfortable for the parrot, especially if there is no need for a layover or cargo transfer or the pet to be stowed under the passenger’s seat in lieu of carry on luggage. This is probably the safest mode of air travel, but may be more expensive and what we mostly use since we pay an additional fee for the pet. We do ship by Land using a trucking company that specializes in transporting pets is another option. The trucks will carry parrots, dropping off and picking up birds on a very carefully planned route that can cover as much as half of the United States in one long road trip
We always give all our parrots a vaccine prior to shipping to avoid the chances of other pets infecting them.
