Hi from Mudgee

[Damian]

I'm Damian from Mudgee.
Have not kept any birds since leaving home 22 years ago.
Bread budgies and Zebras. Have kept many Parrats sp. My favourite of all was a Chicken Hawk I hand raised, awesome bird, would walk down the shops on my sholder, was always free to come and go.

Any way, I dought I will ever have a similar experience, however I now have kids of my own and are going to set up a finch aviary for them to experience.

At this stage I am still researching to see how things have changed, get ideas on the breads I would like to keep and tips on setting up cage to suit.

Any way, Hi all !!!

Welcome Damian,Sure would have been an experiance with a pet Hawk.I would start with the non licenced finches in your state if i was you.

Thanks Gomer, the aviary will be a display at the end of a BBQ padio area, will be looking for a few compatable species of finch/softbills. No breading in this one, may be further down the track in other aviarys.

Where can I find info on which do/do not require permits?

I have heard this so many times

Good luck getting back into birds - the hobby has exploded in that time and the number and variety of birds available is now amazing!
