Those are not redbrows nor are they saint helenas. They are black rumped waxbills which are fairly common in africa, i saw them in uganda and malawi.

I stand corrected ..you learn something new everyday ... :D

However the question was do you think its cruel :?:

I saw no dead or stressed birds , they all looked healthy , perhaps this was just a shipment and a short time in cramped quarters . Its certainly not what we are used to seeing . :(

This might be for shipping but most of his/her videos show birds in a cramped space. :arrow: :thumbdown:

I don't think its an orange mutation , i think it is a very sick bird with dietary related problems .
Now ..those videos of the Ecky are cruel . the cage is putrid ...

Cant watch too many of the vids ..too sad .
