A google search throw up examples like this but I don't know how good they are. Maybe you should stick to a well known insurer

Oh how we laughed at Factor30's answer...lol

I just tried Animal Friends as I insure my dogs with them...they don't do birds :0( E&L seem to be the only other ones with a decent albeit [IMO] high quote.
The comparison sites throw up silly prices [more than it cost me to insure a Great Dane].
I was hoping someone had personal experience.

I know my friend uses Exotic Direct and has had no problems. Pet plan recommend them too.

It is always expensive to insure birds as, unlike mammals, they are extremely difficult to examine for abnormalities and existing hidden ailments. To get a good insurance price you may have to pay for many blood and tissue tests to rule out the possibility that the bird carries recognised ailments.

I thank you for all of your answers. I think I'm going to go with Pet Plan and fast!!! He is such a clumsy oaf and nearly broke a wing this morning trying to run round his cage :0/
