CP Birds started as a hobby back in 1998. Charlie Plaza, at the age of 14, started his collection of birds in the USA. He purchased his first pet bird, an Indian Ringneck Parakeet from a pet store named Critter's Corner in Casselberry, FL for $175. This is where he met the pet store manager, Jeff, who introduced Charlie to the bird breeder who hatched his pet ringneck. Charlie, as a young kid started working for the bird breeder cleaning cages and assisting her in the labor of breeding birds. Charlie quickly developed a passion for birds as he saw the joy that pet birds can bring to people. Charlie followed his passion for birds and started his long lasting carreer in the pet industry running two of the largest, most successful pet specialty stores know today as Pet Supermarket and Petsmart. What once started as a hobby, CP Birds has become a well known national name in the aviculture community making hand fed, friendly birds more accessible to pet owners.

Throughout the years, we have perfected the way we ship birds to make it a lot safer for the companion pet. We only ship same day or overnight delivery. Although delays that are out of our control can happen in shipping, we take precautions to ensure the bird is comfortable with enough food and water in the bio secured shipping container to last at least 3 days.

Saturday Only Same Day Delivery to your nearest airport (Live Birds Only) 3.

CP Birds guarantees the bird will arrive alive and healthy. In the very unlikely event that the bird passes away while in transit, we will request a video of the deceased bird to be sent to us and we will replace the bird at no cost. If you suspect the bird arrived ill, we ask that you immediately take the bird to a licensed avian veterinarian within 24 hours to be examined. In the rare and unlikely event that the avian vet documents that the bird is not healthy, we will replace the bird at no cost to you. Veterinarian documentation will be required.
