What is Red Bird’s Nest?
What is Red Bird's Nest? Red bird nests, also known as blood bird nests, are the most highly-prized sustainable bird nests available on the market today. They are exceptionally rare to come across in nature and even harder to harvest in farms. The swallows’ special diet and micro-climate in areas in Indonesia give these nests their special blood color that doesn’t naturally accrue in areas outside of Southeast Asia.
The red bird nests are carefully aged to maturity for a unique taste and texture, which is why Golden Nest exclusively sells them at the highest quality: AAA. This means the nests have undergone rigorous examinations to conform to the highest standards in the industry in terms of form, shape, and purity.
Golden Nest’s red bird nests are sourced cruelty-free in the most responsible way possible, not only to protect your health but to promote safe harvesting practices that protect the well-being of the Indonesian swallow population.
Even though the red nests look different, they are 100% all natural, sustainable, and 100% hand-washed. Try our red bird nests and you’ll see why Golden Nest is America’s #1 bird nest brand.

With the continued development of sustainable bird’s nest farms, interactions between bird’s nest farms and swiftlets are hospitable and safe for the birds.
Bird nest farms are designed to be safe environments for swiftlets, mimicking locations where the birds would build their nests in the wild. The swiftlets independently flock to the farms and build their nests in these farms. The swiftlets use the farms to incubate their little ones, which in turn hatch, learn to fly, and eventually leave the nest. Once the swiftlets leave the nest, bird nest farmers can harvest the bird nests. Swiftlets instinctively build a new nest every season so there is always a healthy supply of bird nests.
Golden Nest always prides itself in sourcing its nests from cruelty-free swallow farms where workers take the utmost care in harvesting nests. We take environmental responsibility seriously, which is why we only partner with local communities who use sustainable, eco-friendly farming practices.
