That's definitely very true too. I feel like everything has a risk but also benefits.
But at the same time, I feel like good breeders take a lot of care and the birds should theoretically be healthy. It's still a risk but like I would never just get them off Craigslist or something, I'd find a good breeder probably or even ask on here. It's still a risk and more expensive but I figure it's worth it. That said, since I don't really have a need for a specific breed or show quality or anything, I'll probably just go to our local feed store instead of a breeder
