Hi Ray, can't help you with that question but I do know that there are a number of Gouldian breeders in the Soc.

Cheers Greg.

Hi Greg

A question about the Chestnuts.
It's been a while since I was at Fins, Fangs and Feathers in Welshpool but they had a large number of Chestnuts there. All wild caught. I was told by the staff member attending to the birds that this would be the last shipment as the demand for them simply was not there. They had been there for a while as i also saw them during my earlier visits to WA.

Cheers, Case, Tauranga, New Zealand.
