greys are typically around 600/700 each,one breeder near me wants 650 for one yet a pet shop wants 795.
tbh if they are going cheap i would be worried that there might be something wrong with it ie behaviour/illness.

Most hand reared African Greys from a private breeder will sell for around £550.

Pet shops will be anything from £600 upwards. If your on a shop waiting list & its only £500 I would suggest you check to see if its hand reared or if it might actually be a Timneh Grey which are smaller & cheaper.

As well as Parrotlinks there is another good website for Parrots, birdtrek.co.uk - Home. You can place wanted adverts on both of those sites.

Buying from a breeder is often better as you can sometimes visit the babies & watch them grow, whereas in a pet shop you don't know the history of its upbringing or how it was cared for.

Good luck in your search.
