Eclectus Parrot Pricing

The price for an Eclectus Parrot ranges from $799 to $1,999, depending on age, handling level, and rearing method.

Price Variations Explained

Fledgling – From $799
A fledgling raised by its parents that has left the nest and is flying in an aviary. These birds can be taught to talk but are difficult to train unless you are highly experienced.

Handled Baby – From $1,199
A baby raised by its parents that receives daily handling in short sessions before fledging. With continued human interaction, these birds can become friendly, though constant handling is required to maintain tameness.

Hand-Reared Baby – From $1,999
The best option for a companion pet, offering many kisses and cuddles and the strongest human bond.

Why Hand-Reared Eclectus Parrots Are So Valuable

Hand-rearing an Eclectus Parrot takes 6–8 weeks of dedicated work. From early life, chicks require specialised formula feeds up to five times per day, including early mornings and late nights. Each feed must be prepared and delivered correctly.

Beyond feeding, daily handling and interaction are essential so birds grow up trusting people. This consistent care helps them see humans as companions rather than threats.

As they grow, chicks are carefully weaned onto solid foods, encouraged to perch, and guided toward independence. By the time a bird is ready for a new home, it has already received extensive care, socialisation, and guidance.

This is why hand-reared birds represent such strong value—you are bringing home a confident, well-adjusted parrot ready to bond with you.

Availability

Availability varies by season and breeding cycles. During off-breeding seasons, baby birds may be scarce, and pricing may be higher.

Eclectus Parrot Dietary Requirements

At Victorian Bird Company, Eclectus Parrots are fed a balanced diet consisting of:

40% tiny parrot seed, high-quality crumbles, and pellets
50% fruits and vegetables such as bananas, grapes, carrots, and bok choy
10% nuts and grains such as almonds

Fresh, clean water is essential. Indoor Eclectus Parrots require Vitamin D3 and Calcium supplementation, and we use Avian Sunglo, available in-store.

Tips, Tricks and Training

Breeding Eclectus Parrots

Eclectus Parrots are ready to breed after two years of age. They typically breed from July to February, laying two eggs that hatch after 28–30 days. Chicks leave the nest at 11–12 weeks and are ready for new homes 2–3 weeks later.

A parrot-sized nest box approximately 30 × 70 cm, lined with nesting material available from Victorian Bird Company, is suitable for breeding.

If you are purchasing a breeding pair, the investment ranges from $2,500 to $3,000.

About the Eclectus Parrot

Eclectus Parrots are native to Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. They are intelligent, gentle, and curious birds that respond well to training and food rewards. They are excellent talkers and can grow to 35 cm, living up to 30 years.

This species is sexually dimorphic, meaning males and females have distinct appearances.
