When I was younger and living in California I worked at a pet store specilizing in exotic brids. I had fed most while I worked there. My paernts actually have two that I raised. An African Gery and a Unbrella Cockatoo. I had a Sun Conure that I got as a baby and raised and one night it must have fallen from it's perch and broke it's neck  I sill have the cage incase I decide to get another. The Michiana Bird Society Bird Fair is a great place to get them and accessories. I got my Conure there for $150 there usually $300-$500 for hand fed ones....
