Hello all

[greg4041]

Hi everyone I live south of Perth and am returning to finch breeding after many years I did have a large orchid collection and am slowly converting the orchid houses to aviarys as I sell of my collection. I have been lucky enough to make contact with one of our top breeders and he has helped me begin my collection and given me invaluable advice, I am looking forward to the interactions on the forum.

I have been very lucky to meet a very experienced breeder who lives close by he has supplied me with very good unrelated breeding stock and great advise, I forgot to mention my BF parrot finches that have produced me a lutino young bird and my Tanimbars both pairs of which are currently sitting if it wasn't for him I would not have been a able to source most of my birds.
