Good evening, everyone! I am excited to share our new babies in store for you! That’s right! We have miniature toucans! Owning an aracari as a pet is an amazing and rewarding experience that is like nothing else. If you have ever kept any other type of bird you will need to toss out any preconceived ideas about what to expect as these guys do not behave anything at all like parrots, large or small. They are extremely inquisitive birds and are always investigating everything around.
These two Collared Aracaris are both DNA sexed males that hatched on 7/28/25. They were just weaned and are ready for a family of their own. These babies are highly intelligent and very attractive with their black, yellow, and red markings. The most distinctive physical chararcteristic of these birds are their amazing beaks which reach about 4” in length. The beaks are made of keratin just like our nails making it lightweight with the closing pressure being weak.
Their low iron diet consists of fresh fruit cut into 1/2” dices, thawed mixed vegetables, and an occasional scrambled egg. They do like to cuddle and will relish time spent up inside your shirt, tail folded up over their backs, having a nice little snooze. Aracaris are happy and content birds.
Let’s talk about where these babies came from. Although this species originated from the tropical lowlands of Mexico to Colombia, these babies were hatched here in the US by a phenomenal breeder who specializes in these exotic birds. With more than 30 years of experience, you receive a DNA certificate as well as a hatch certificate when you purchase one of these rare beauties.
These amazing babies are in store and available for $4,500 each. We do offer layaway in store for no additional charge. The bird must remain with us until paid in full. We open in the morning at 10am. Have a blessed evening.
