Parrot Cage (Hyacinth Macaw) drops from various Bloodsail pirates in Stranglethorn Vale.

Notes

This pet quite possibly has the smallest drop rate in the game, at approximately 0.0007 = 0.07% (about 1/1400 kills) and so takes an incredible amount of patience and determination in order to get one. Due to the difficulty of obtaining one, and thus their rarity, they can sell for huge amounts of gold on the Auction House. Prices seen up to 20,000g on some servers, if it is seen at all.

While some confuse it with other parrots, and ignore, hard-core Collectors all agree this is a bird not to pass up, no matter the price, or time spent acquiring.

Now that it has been changed to an epic quality item, even new players are unlikely to mistakenly sell this bird for a low price.
