"also never forget that delibertly crossing Native Spiecis in this Australia is illegal and can and will attract a hefty Fine."
Glad to hear it. But are you sure? Because it seems to me people are regularly advertising crosses and nothing is done about it.

As far as I know there only laws relating to sex between different species relate to (pardon the French) the penal code. Sorry I couldn't let that one pass. I may be undesirable but it's not illegal in most states to create hybrid birds. For anyone that's interested there is a
Handbook of Avian Hybrids that records members of
Erythrura have been crossed with munias, black-throated, diamond sparrows and red brows. The only record of the Gouldian though is the with the blue-faced PF.
