Exotic Wings & Pet Shows

Yes, we attend various pet shows and events throughout the year. A full list of upcoming shows we are attending can be found found here!

No, we do not bring birds to shows. It is nearly impossible to do a proper care sheet at a show as there are far too many distractions. Additionally, the transport to the show, and fast paced environment of shows can be very stressful for baby birds.

All bird sales will be completed at our store location by appointment.

  • You can place an order in advance for pick-up at the show and save the shipping! :) Keep reading for more details.
  • See a variety of products firsthand! We take a great selection of toys to cover all bases and bird sizes. From foraging to preening, finches to macaws!
  • We offer bird grooming at shows! The prices are the same as they would be at our store. This is unique to each show and we will not be able to offer bird grooming at every show. Double check the show in question listing in our events blog to see if at show bird grooming is being offered.
  • Our expert staff are able to answer any and all questions you may have! We can show you products and their use in real-time, talk about food and nutrition, etc.

Orders that are placed for pick-up at the show must be paid in full at least 72 hours before the show starting date. Orders will be available for pick-up at our booth during the show's running hours.

You will have to pay any admission fees that apply at the show, or pre-purchase your admission if the show allows.

In order to obtain your order we will require your order number and a piece of ID that corresponds with the name on the order. If you are picking up an order for someone else it is their responsibility to make us aware of this ahead of the pick-up date. Contact details of the person who is picking up the order must be provided.

You are still welcome to shop at our booth even if you have placed an order for pick-up.

In the event the show is cancelled, we will contact you with the option to pick-up at the store or have your order shipped.

You may be required to make an appointment ahead of time. This will depend on the show. Read the related show's post on our events blog for full details of bird grooming for that event.

You will need to pay admission to enter the show hall and for some shows you will have to fill out a pet waiver. Check the show's website for their rules regarding pet's in attendance.

Your bird must arrive in an appropriate pet carrier.

We are experienced professionals and very efficient at bird grooming. Typically we will be done within a few minutes.

Grooming is a paid service. Find our current pricing here. The price for bird grooming at a show is the same as bird grooming at the store. It is priced per item (beaks, wings, nails).
