Hand-raised baby parrots at Morphnests California breeder

From One Cockatiel to a Full Aviary

It started the way it always does — one bird. Mo got his first cockatiel in high school and was immediately obsessed. He spent every free moment reading, learning, and eventually breeding. One pair became two, two became four, and suddenly the spare bedroom was a full aviary.

Today Mo breeds 20+ species out of his Southern California home and ships hand-raised babies nationwide. Every bird is handled daily, socialized intentionally, and given the same love Mo gave that first cockatiel years ago.

“I don’t sell birds. I find families for them. There’s a difference, and every repeat customer can feel it.”

As a CS student at UC Riverside, Mo brings the same systematic thinking to bird care — tracking clutches, health records, and feeding schedules with the same precision he applies to code. The result is birds that arrive healthy, tame, and ready to bond.

Optional DNA Sexing

Choose the DNA sexing add-on if you would like a lab result confirming your bird’s sex.

Optional Disease Testing

Choose the individual disease panel add-on if you would like lab results for your specific bird.

Hand-Raised From 14 Days

Pulled at 14 days for maximum tameness. Weaned on Harrison’s pellets and fresh foods. Never sold before fully weaned — no exceptions.

TikTok’s Most Trusted Bird Breeder

Hundreds of thousands of views educating the parrot community on care, training, and what to look for in a reputable breeder.

Lifetime Support — For Real

Mo still answers questions from buyers who got a bird 4 years ago. Once you’re a Morphnests customer, you have a breeder for life.

What Mo Believes

The Morphnests Standard

Hand-Raised, Not Just Hand-Tamed

Morphnests are raised by human hands from 2 weeks old — not just tamed after weaning. The difference in temperament is immediate and lasting.

Testing Options for Your Bird

DNA sexing and individual disease testing are separate, optional add-ons. Ask Mo which records are available for the bird you’re considering.

Placed, Not Sold

Mo turns down buyers who don’t seem like a good fit for a specific bird. He’d rather keep a bird longer than send it to the wrong home.

Safe, Nationwide Shipping

Mo ships birds he’d be comfortable shipping to himself. Every box, heat pack, and carrier choice is made with the bird’s safety first.

Education First

Mo has produced hundreds of educational videos and answers questions for free — even for people who didn’t buy from him. Birds come first.

Sustainable, Small-Scale Breeding

Mo doesn’t churn out maximum clutches. Every pair has appropriate rest, and chick numbers are kept at a level where each one gets real attention.
