Hello,
Just ordered from Exotic Wings Pets & Things online, Orlux insect patee Premium and Orlux Eggfood. Seems like a well built website, and they have lots to look at on there, for the hobbyist and or breeder. And the best thing?! They're Canadian! Its so hard to find a good retailer who carries a decent about of bird things online in Canada.
Anyone else have any experience dealing with Exotic Wings?
Thanks!

I have been to their store and you have to be careful what live birds you buy - but that goes for any breeder/petstore. His bird prices are very high (pet store pricing and then some). I have bought birds and foods from him.

I have some of the insect patee'. I add 1/2 cup of it to my eggfood. I haven't tried it in a dish alone. But they seem to like it mixed in with other stuff....oh I have added it to my cornbread also.

My only complaint with them thus far is that they don't update their site often enough. I just made an order with them and paid for my items only to get a call saying that they were out of stock on one of the items so I had to get something else that I didnt need/want to make up for the money that I already spent on the original item that was out of stock.
Owls, Goulds, European Goldfinch, Red Belly Siskins and Zebs... For now...

Wow and they wouldn't give you a refund for that portion? It figures. When I went there (over 2 hour drive) they would not honour the price of a bird on their website. Small says prices subject to change at any time - so it seems the price of that bird went up when I walked in the store. I didn't buy that bird for the inflated price.
