welcome, You have a good collection there, I see a few birds I wish we had here in Australia. Some we had in the past and didn't look after them, now they are lost to us. Others I could only dream of, as we will never see them here in Australia. Good luck and keep us posted on your successes. with your birds
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.

Welcome to the Forum. What a beautiful collection of finches. Which do you breed in avaries and which in breeding cages?

Personally I wish I could breed all of them in aviaries, but I dont have the space. Mainly breed Australian species in cages. The Goulds, Owls, Diamonds ext ext they dont mind and will readily breed for me in the cages.
Now most if not all my African finches are wild caugh heads. They are very flighty and need plenty of space and dense shrubbery/bushes to hide in and nest. With out the aviaries I dont think I could breed some of them. Even with the big space that I give them I sometimes have a hard time breeding them.

Here in Australia almost everything is bred in avairys. Accept Canarys and occassionally Gouldians. Though even those two are regularly bred in small 2x1x1 avairys/pair. So things are definately different.
