Susan van den Broek and her husband, Jan Derr, are owners of FeatherHeads, a store which specializes in companion parrots as well as food, cages, toys and supplies to keep them happy. Susan and Jan got interested in birds in 1996 when they fostered a mynah bird for a local rescue group. Their interest in parrots grew and in 1999, after adding several birds to their own flock and offering merchandise at local bird marts, they opened FeatherHeads. From their original 1300 sq. foot store, they have now expanded to over 6000 sq feet. Susan has handfed hundreds of baby birds over the years. She has successfully raised babies from some of the smallest such as parrotlets to the largest parrots, the Hyacinth macaw. Susan and Jan have made it their goal to provide education as well as a chance to interact with different types of parrots making FeatherHeads a unique experience for everyone from the beginner to the expert aviculturist. There are always lots of birds to entertain you. Susan and FeatherHeads have been featured in several local newspapers as well as publications catering to persons in the pet trade and in addition she is active in several avicultural organizations.
