The exotic bird breeders business was started over fifteen years ago by Roger and Suzanne Buckland. From just a few aviaries there are now around ninety, some are for the exotic birds for sale, including parrots, cockatoos, macaws and many more. |

| Suzanne hand feeds the baby exotic birds from the day they hatch and so they are wonderfully tame for their new owners as soon as they collect them. African Grey parrots and the many Amazon parrots are weaned and ready to go to their new homes at twelve weeks of age, and the large macaws and cockatoos take a little longer. Many of the young birds are talking long before the hand feeding is finished and a chorus of 'hellos' often greets one on entering the nursery. | |||

As well as being exotic bird breeders we have an interesting collection of waterfowl from all over the world, including Blacknecked, and Coscoroba Swans from South America, in the grounds of Piper's Piece. There is a large variety of bird cages, toys, and accessories available in the shop together with some of the many baby parrots. Open every day of the week, Piper's Piece offers a great chance to see some of the most beautiful exotic birds in the world in a relaxed country setting. The diet for our breeding birds is varied. It normally contains Parrot mix or parakeet mix plus Kaytee Breeding formula, vegetables and fruit. As bird breeders we have many achievements, and one that we are particularly proud of is that in 1994 we bred and hand raised the first Ducorps Cockatoo to be born in the United Kingdom.Among the many exotic birds we have bred and hand raised are: |
