Aussie Finch Forum

Sam had the cleanest birds there......his selling cabinet is brilliant....I know he is open to any offers for it, but it would take a pair or two of Pekin Robins to part with it...

Cheers Ripley

First sale I have been too and found it very interesting. The number of people there was amazing, I was seriously shocked! Got a pair of ruddies from sam's son first up, the look on his face was priceless (might have been his first sale for the day he looked so excited) great to see. Found a beautiful oh/pb/gb gouldian cocks but made the mistake of wandering off to have a look at the other stalls for a moment and when I came back it was gone! Lesson learned. Heaps of rccb and stars, I thought there was a real lack of gouldians and quality painteds IMO. Had to run off quickly so sorry didn't get to come back past Sam my car was one of those cars being called out over the pa system whoops!

Really enjoyed my first bird show got there nice and early 9.30am glad I did as the parking was chaos at 11.45am when I was leaving. Great to meet a couple of people from the forum. Bought a female cordon from Sam and a pair of Orange Breasted from Sam's son who looked pretty excited over the sale, nice healthy birds and great price compared to what I have paid at the Bird Dealer shops. Huge crowd and just enjoyed walking around looking at the birds (mainly finches) and seeing what I would like to get next time. Cheers

You'll be pleased to know my son has been playing Need for Speed most of the day thanks to pofits made on his OBs and Ruddies!

Good on him!

Hi im just wondering how the birds you got from me are going?

ArHar,G'day little Sam Craig

Hi MATE,

The pair of little Orange breasted I bought from you have settle in really well. I have another pair and the 4 of them sit together. My aviary is 10 mrts long so they are really enjoying the flying back and forth. I got a cordon from your dad she has settled in okay but my male cordon still does not want anything to do with her but at least he has another one of his species. You are breeding good looking healthy birds and will be happy to buy from you again. Cheers mate

Hi Masked,

Ruddies looking really good, and now are in the aviary. not sure if they have a roosting nest, but the male has made a tiny nest in the fern and lined it with feathers already. Feed them maggots and crickets as my live food, havent seen them at the live food bowl as yet though. From the looks of things you breed a good quality bird, congratulations and thank you buddy!

my name is not mate or buddy its luke.very good to hear the birds are doing well.
