Eunos Bird Shop Is Called SMLJ, Sells ‘Jiaos’ Of Various Sizes & Essential Supplies

SMLJ In Eunos Is A Bird Store Full Of Colourful Parrots & Birdkeeping Essentials

When it comes to birds, there are some humans who absolutely adore them while others may view the creatures as flying menaces.

Some of those belonging to the former group may have birds as pets and go-to pet stores where they often buy supplies or even more of the creatures.

But few may be familiar with this salaciously named store in Eunos, which is actually a shop specialising in all things birds.

Called Small Medium Large Jiao or SMLJ for short, the shop is a one-stop store for all birdkeeping essentials.

SMLJ has popular parrot breeds like budgies, cockatoos & quakers

Tucked away at 48 Jalan Eunos, the store regularly brings in rare birds of all sizes for sale — apt, considering its name. ‘Jiao’ means bird in Hokkien.

For example, here are some English budgies, a specially-bred species from the early 20th century.

They were primarily bred for the pet trade and as ‘show’ birds, according to HereBird.

Another popular species is the Quaker. TheSprucePets says that these parrots are known for their fun-loving personality and energetic nature.

With their ability to speak well and not grow any more than 30cm, they’re like pocket-sized jesters that brighten up your day when you return home.

If you fancy a larger winged buddy, the store also has these beautifully coloured Galah Cockatoos.
