Availability
I have made a list of pyrrhura conures available in the UK and the prices are for parent reared only and what I would expect to pay today. NOTE: this is only a guide, prices are taken from various bird shows/sales I have attended & birds mags etc.

Easy = easy to obtain
Quite hard = available but have to search for them
Hard = hard to obtain.
Hard* = hard to obtain in the pure form due to mutations.
Rare = very few advertised, stocks need building up.
* young birds
The prices vary from unknown to sexed birds, the gender of bird and how mature the birds are. The highest prices I've shown are birds which are surgically sexed/DNA, close-rung and proven.
