Delivery and collection

Do you offer delivery?

Open tab

Sorry but currently we do not offer delivery. All purchases must be picked up from our base in Kent.

Please note: Although our birds are usually collected, we can organise courier delivery if necessary. Obviously the more drop offs a courier can do in one area will reduce the delivery price so if you would like to order any of our birds for courier delivery make sure to tell your friends about us! To see if we can deliver to you call Kate on 07767 822575
