    They are not on the endangered list, however there habitat is declining.
    A few days back I thought I saw a thread where another member had one of these little gems, but I could be mistaken.
    I really don't know if these birds are on the market.

    Arty, in 4 years of being on bird forums I have never seen anyone with a Pygmy Parrot. Jim posted that he was curious as to what the world's smallest parrot was since he has a Parrotlet which is the 2nd smallest parrot.

    I posted a thread about them, but from what I could find in my brief search they are not in captivity.
