Hi Jack, It is a big ordeal, you have to go through customs,
the people shipping the bird have to get all the paper work
done, then you find out from them when the flight is comming in
and meet it hoping the weather has not turned cold. Also once
the birds are here they have to be in 30 day quarantine. If you
have birds of your own, the quarantine premises have to be else
where, and within the thirty days you will have to undergo two
or three visits from the customs department in your area to
make sure the birds are healthy. If in that time they deem the
birds sick, you are forced to destroy them, and all your effort
and money is for nothing. It is a long process that i have
done, and if you want the bird bad enough it is very doable,
but a lot of time and worry...Sue
