Hi.

Here some photos of my new pair of Chestnut Breasted Munias. Both from 2010. The photos are too big so I post the link of them in my blog.

P.S: In the profile of this species, in the part of the mutations only show the Black but here in Europe we have the Fawn

Hi Nathan.
My pair was 60 Euros (82.69 Australian dollars) but I bought them to a friend of mine 8-)
The normal price by pair is something between 80€ to 100€ (the Fawns are 120€ pair)

Hi Nathan.

Well, compared to the price over there yes they are expensive but Chestnuts are uncommon in Portugal ... :(
By the way, can you tell me the prices of this species in Australia:
  • Gouldian
    Lonchura molucca
    Star finch
    Scally breasted munia

All these prices are breeders prices.

Unsure of the scaly breasted or the lonchura, but most of the time a mature, coloured pair of normal gouldians is between $40 and $50, and star finches $30 to $40.
