Does anyone have a reliable contact for whom I can purchase some decent nesting material from? I'm too lazy to go out and look for it myself, plus if grass is not soft leaf buffalo or kikuyu I don't know one from the other.
I'm after someone reliable with reasonable priced material that nice and clean. (for gouldians and RFPF).

Thanks.

I dont know anything about this grass but maybe a chat to the seller for a sample ...he can only say no . Worth a try.

Mate I'll drive any where really, but I want to buy it in bulk to reduce some costs as this hobby is costing me another mortgage.
Are you referring to millet sprays?
