legal to buy parrot hatching eggs?

Not for nothing, but, ordering Eggs does not have to be incredibly expensive. I am Gonna be placing an order within a month for 4 eggs of 5 breeds; Scarlet Macaw, Hyacinth Macaw, Blue and Gold Macaw, Black Palm Cockatoo, and Parakeets, And, next week I am getting my falconry licence to order 4 eggs of the American Kestrel. And, it is not going to break the bank. So, you just need to find a breeder that is 1: Reputable. 2: Clean. and 3: Verified. You can find the eggs for $30 - $50 a piece. Which is not bad, considering Hyacinth Macaws go for $10,000 average a piece, and Black Palm Cockatoos go for $16,000 a piece. This is obviously after they have been tamed, trained, and if they speak or not. But, if you are willing to put the time into raising them, they can return a nice profit for you. But, it is a 24/7 job from the moment you get the eggs and all through the birthing and raising process. They take A LOT of time to care for them and raise them successfully. This is highly important. So, just make sure you know everything about the breed you choose to get. That is the most important thing. A lot of people buy a parrot, and then have to get rid of it because they bit off more than they could chew.

Does anyone have any resources on training parrots, specifically budgies?
I looked around and there's just too much stuff. Is there a book with best practices?
