TONY SILVA PLEAD GUILTY TO SMUGGLING PARROTS AND WAS SENTENCED TO 82 MONTHS IN PRISON..."In his plea agreement with the United States Attorney's Office in Chicago, Mr. Silva admitted to having conspired with confederates in South America to capture the birds and smuggle them to the United States.."Mr. Tabrue told the agents that Mr. Silva had supplied him with several shipments of illegal macaws and other birds, but most of them had arrived dead." 'Some of the birds were tranquilized and stuffed into small plastic tubes before being shoved into hollowed car-door panels. Others were smuggled on jetliners in false-bottomed suitcases beneath mounds of clothing. The prosecutors said Mr. Silva's smuggling operation netted an estimated $1.3 million."

Over the next nine years, Silva--renowned author, vehement critic of wildlife smuggling, and guru to thousands of bird owners worldwide--apparently ran a thriving business while countless birds died during transit" FROM OUTSIDE MAGAZINE ONLINE 05/02/2004 www.outsideonline.com/1829076/wildlife-would-you-stuff-your-suitcase THIS IS YOUR SPOKESPERSON? www.justice.gov/enrd/operation-renegade www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p04fwwjc www.fws.gov/news/Historic/NewsReleases/1997/19970729.pdf www.justice.gov/enrd/operation-renegade apnews.com/22576bf0589405edfd802b497d3988ef?fbclid=IwAR0b-H2CoS0Vg6_fRfYEVNIvwBhoU-yWySCD_tmJi_S0rXRJcKgj-HImHPo

Do not buy Israeli products that support colonialism, apartheid, and all kinds of crimes against humanity. To make matters worse, the cost price of these incubators is ridiculous compared to their sales price. They have an extraordinary profit margin

Guy is correct.. But I'll also mention contact incubation run on different temperature than still or forced air incubators.. Learn before you attempt these things or you will end up with a lot of dead eggs
