Order ONLINE!! Seriously, most stores carry mediocre items for high prices. You can find much better quality items online for similar prices. I don't buy any of my supplies in stores.

First of all, let me say that until you have a better relationship with the birds you already have, you should not be buying more! You will get yourself into a big mess and will probably end up frustrated and having to rehome your parrots. So do yourself and your current birds a favor and start taming and training them before you give yourself even more work.

Secondly, it can be very tricky to get pets through customs. It's best to purchase a bird in the same country that you live in. If you try to take an animal from one country to another, there is lots of paperwork and permits that you need, not to mention most countries also require the animal to be quarantined before and after traveling.

You don't even know what to do with your two and want to buy more? Also, you won't be able to bring them back into your country due to quarantine. I suggest you keep your two and work with them or drop keeping birds altogether. Was the desperate "HELP!!!" title really necessary for this?
