    It can depend on where you live, whether you want a green or a blue, and whether you want one that is handraised or not (which I really recommend if you want a pet)
    In Australia, you can usually pick up a Quaker for $300-$400 depending on the colour, that is a handraised one. Aviary Quakers go for maybe $200 each.
    In America, most of these parrots are much more common- just watch out, though- because they are illegal in about 13 states over there! So you may not be able to have one where you are.
    I would expect a handreared Quaker will cost you somewhere between $200-$400

    well the bird alone would be around 200- 300 depend on the color. if you get it from a breeder it would be alot cheaper and better. also the cage sometime would cost around 150 to 180 once again depend on the size of the cage.= and the brand. about the toy and food, one bag of quaker food should last around 1 and half mouth ( fista quaker food is about $25) toys shouldnt be that much). your look around $400 to 500 if you want everthing to be good.
