Welcome to the forum.
Fantastic to see a younger person interested in keeping finches. We will all try to help you with whatever you need. I started keeping birds in 1969 and still learn new things about finches every day. I am a member of this site because the people on this site are so helpful and the sum of their combined knowledge in a particular subject is huge and quick to access. They can provide specific information relevant to your bird collection and location. It is very difficult and time consuming if not impossible to try and find the same level of information on the internet or form current books

I am interested in purchasing any of the more unusual Lonchura species and/or their subspecies. Particularly the Asian Munias or New Guinea Mannikins. If you have some and wish to sell them, PM me with the type, quantity and price
I will buy related or unrelated birds. I am also happy to organise and pay freight from anywhere in Australia.

Nathan, there is no need to reply to every member that welcomes you to the forum.
Wait a few days and then if you still feel the need, say thank you to them all in the same post.

They clog up the forums... Many online forums have rules against unnecessary posting

Not really very good though, because I don't have much computer time anymore so by the time I find the topic it's locked
