You will make alot of people green with envy BUT the upside here is we have the climate to really enjoy our birds outside.
No I really like the warm weather and NO snow. :P :P :P
Yes its some what cooler over here to say the least and very unpredictable, we can have all four seasons in the space of a week.All my birds are bred in indoor flights with the exception of a few which are cage bred (i think you may refer to this as cabinet breeding) i do have 6 out door flights but they are not used for breeding.
