Just out of curiosity does anyone know why the Beautiful Firetails are banned in WA? Is it because of the risk of escapees hybridizing with the Red Ear Firetails?

yhe pretty sure thats the reasoning. but its like many of the parrots were not aloud to keep coz the threat of escaping and hybridizing and destroy crops.

What types of birds arnt you allowed to keep?

all the available in Australia Amazons, bout 10 species of conures african greys and few macaw species. but yeh thats off topic. i think its stupid were not aloud the beautifull firetail over here.

Hey Saint, you're from Perth, aren't you? shouldn't a high level keeper like you with orange cheeks and blue caps know what the restrictions are?
;)
