Only one way to find is to pair her up with a normal bird.

I will try again, on the weekend his phone number was dropping out/ no reception type thing. update Contacted Rob this morning and he advised he sold them all off about 4 years ago.

There were some mutants behind Woolies in Wagga,
when ever I am in Wagga I always go looking around there, yet no sightings. Thanks for the offer.

There is a guy down the shoalhaven who might have some.

Last I heard he paired a canary to a sparrow so Christ knows what other sparrow breeding projects he could have.

Pm if you want more details.
Breeding Project 2020-2025.
agate mosaic canaries, agate yellow mosaic canaries, red zebs, self bengos and goldfinch mules.

Nothing as yet. Only paired up the pied hen with a normal cock bird very late in the season. They both appear compatible unfortunately no signs of nesting atm. I will keep you informed when they do.
