Louise and Michael Williamsburg, Virginia Our baby African Grey came to us safely in VA from TX by air cargo: she's healthy, beautiful, and incredibly tame and friendly and accessible -- doubtless due to the expert and loving human hands at FullNestAviary which hatched and nurtured her. 2/3/2019 11:04:51 PM

Ronald Bradford Houston , Tx Awesome people, very knowledgeable about all types of birds. I love the fact that they, as in full nest Avaiary, cares more about the well being of the birds, than the overall sale of them. Love my African grey, she was well taken care of by them. 9/11/2017 10:08:56 AM

Wendy Olive Branch, MS I received an angel yesterday! We were so happy to get to see our new Baby Grey for the first time! She was everything we wanted and more. She allowed my family to hold her, she understood what step up meant, she was perch trained, healthy and VERY sweet! You could tell immediately that she had been worked with and was socialized well. No regrets here! I highly recommend Melissa to anyone that is looking for a top notch bird. We named our new baby Sadie. We are so thankful for her! Thanks much! 2/21/2014 11:29:40 AM
Breeder Reply:
This is such a heart warming review for me to read. Thank you for taking the time to write such nice words. Enjoy Sadie. I know she will love joining your flock.
Laura I could not be happier with our new African Gray baby! This bird is so sweet, and adjusting to his new home so quickly...no doubt the result of expert nurturing and handling from day one by Melissa and company. Just took him to meet the Avian vet we selected for his future care and she gave him an A+for healthy and well adjusted. This little bird has surpassed all of our expectations! This was a happy ending after having been scammed by another 'breeder' online! 2/12/2014 1:59:59 PM
Breeder Reply:
Wonderful update! I love hearing about my babies adjusting so well. That is the result of a perfect mix of great nurturing and socializing here, and great nurturing and socializing by his new family! Thanks for giving him such a great home.
Becky Dry Branch, Georgia I am so pleased with my african grey. I was a little nervous when she arrived because I was afraid she may be a little aggressive but she is the sweetest bird in the world. I was scammed before I called Melissa and a little concerned but she was always available to answer any questions, and still is. I couldn't be any happier with my choice. I only wish I had ordered from her first. You will not find a better socialized bird anywhere. She is a very caring breeder. 2/8/2014 8:48:37 AM
Breeder Reply:
Thank you so much for trusting me! I felt so bad that you had a bad experience before you contacted us, but I was so happy you trusted us to provide you with a sweet baby. Enjoy her! I know she has already bonded to you in just a few days!
Darla Tulsa, Ok I would recommend Melissa at Full Nest Aviary to anyone! If you are looking for a sweet loving companion, this is the breeder to use. We received "Marley" (Congo African Grey) from her via United Airlines this past Tuesday. We couldn't be more in love or happier with her. She is so sweet and loves to cuddle. Melissa was always available to help and answer any questions I had. She is highly knowledgeable. Please give this breeder a call, you will not regret it. Thank you Melissa! Darla 2/7/2014 9:47:32 AM

Thank you for such a great review! I am glad Marley has such an awesome home.
Lisa Missouri City, TX Full Nest Aviary is a very reputable breeder. I would recommend them to anyone. The cockatoo we bought is very healthy and all may concerns were addressed prior to purchase and when I picked up our cockatoo. 11/18/2013 8:01:55 PM

Korey I just want to say thank you so much to Melissa. We recently purchased a baby African Grey.I have never owned or even seen such a well socialized baby bird. From the day we brought Ranger home he had wanted to be right with us. He never gets frustrated with my two daughters and is very good with them. At three months old he is trying vertu hard to talk. He already says Thank you, what are you doing, and come here. Melissa and her crew are very helpful as well. Thank You Melissa. Korey&Ran 4/21/2013 7:17:20 PM
Breeder Reply:
Wow! What a great testimony to your working with him. If he is talking so young, he is in a stimulating and loving environment. I bet he is going to be a fantastic talker.
Enjoy Ranger and keep us updated!
Alice Austin, TX Melissa has been great to deal with - very knowledgeable about avian behavior and breeding. She sent out progress reports with pictures periodically. Our bird - has been a joy, came to us very socialized, cuddly and no signs of stress or fear. She accepts us working with her wings, laying her on her back, and riding in the car. She readily eats vegetables and fruit. Melissa's talent in breeding birds is top notch - really an art. We know we're going to enjoy our bird! 4/17/2013 3:48:19 PM
Breeder Reply:
It is an art! Thank you for your comments. I am glad you realize the importance of continuing the socialization and development by continuing to play with her wings, feeding her fruits and veggies, etc. It is easier to say goodbye when you know they are going to a responsible, loving home.
Charlotte Like other customers of Full Nest Aviary I had contacted other breeders inquiring about an African Grey & I knew that Full Nest Aviary was the place to buy because Melissa provides you with a lot of information & you can tell they take the time to socialize with their babies. I received a healthy African Grey & he's beautiful! I received pictures until weaning & throughout the process Melissa was very kind to answer any questions I had. Highly recommend! Thank you for a great experience! 4/16/2013 5:34:15 PM

Thank you so much for your words! We do take a lot of pride in our babies.
Jodi I am so happy with my African Grey. She is the sweetest baby ever. I contacted Melissa a few months ago after talking to a few other breeders. Some of the things the other breeders said to me just didn't sit well with me. When I spoke with Melissa. I knew she cared about her birds and also her clients. I was emailed updates and pictures while she was being weaned. I highly recommend Full Nest Aviary. I couldn't have asked for a better bird or experience!! Thank you again for everything! 4/16/2013 3:10:00 PM
Breeder Reply:
Thank you Jodi. Your sweet girl is one of the ones we took for a presentation to ONE HUNDRED KINDERGARTNERS! She did great. We only allowed our son to hold/touch her during the presentation, but she was so calm and sweet. All the kids fell in love. She is a real gem.
Jenny Conroe, Texas I receive the sweetest girl. Very pretty and healthy. She loves people. I was given information on care and training. She had been taught not to bite. She is already learning potty training and eats her veggies. We make morning trips to the bathroom to learn about the "shower". She also had been taught to step up. FNA is the best! 4/16/2013 3:00:57 PM
Breeder Reply:
She really is a sweetie, and is really smart. Your email about finally getting an African Grey after wanting one for so long really made my day. I am glad you have her, and that she has you.
Lu Plano, TX The breeder is great and I couldn't be happier. The baby African Grey is so cute and sweet. Thank you Melissa! 4/16/2013 2:10:01 PM
Breeder Reply:
I am so glad you are happy with her. She looks very happy in the photos you sent. She is such a sweetie!
Thanks!
John Victoria, TX Wonderful experience. Breeder took the time to answer all our questions as we are first time owners. Cockatoo we purchased was loving from the start and stepped up on command. "Spencer" was comfortable in our home after one day. I would highly recommend this breeder! 4/16/2013 11:50:06 AM
Breeder Reply:
Thank you! We were so impressed with your daughters' confidence and maturity when interacting with Spencer. I know he loves all the attention he gets.

Thank you, Heike! We love having our birds go to homes like yours. Your sons, P and D have more bird knowledge and responsibility than most adults. I am so happy TWO of our birds are in your home!
Lacey I can't say enough good things about Full Nest Aviary! Incredible service, prompt attention, amazing support, and so much more! Our baby was so sweet, it was love at first sight...I wouldn't send anyone anywhere else! I feel like I'm dealing with a friend of the family. I was a little hesitant at first to buy sight-unseen, but I am SO VERY glad I trusted my gut. I couldn't have asked for anything more. 8/1/2012 10:17:53 PM

Wow! Thank you Lacey! I am glad you love your sweet girl. As you know, we have really enjoyed getting to know you!

Ron Oklahoma City, OK I purchased My baby African Grey, Lexi from this breeder. They are WONDERFUL. I actually got the bird, cage, portable perch from them as well. They flew Lexi to me. She was and is the sweetest bird. She is 1 yr old now and is talking up a storm. Very healthy, active and interactive. I would definitely do business with them again. Only great things to say..thanks Melissa and all for sending me exactly what you said you would. 7/6/2012 7:26:54 AM

Alissa Breeder was very knowledgeable and helpful with selecting the right bird for me. My bird came home socialized, knowing how to step up and already working on talking. Breeder was happy to offer email support and answer questions after the bird came home. I will definitely use this breeder again for my next bird. 7/5/2012 11:47:41 AM
