Cool birds deb - I love regents myself.
I probably prefer the smokey ones (from WA?)

Is that a snack sitting next to bird in the second pic?

Love Regetnts Deb, they are a beautiful bird, but just wait till the begging starts. Once she is ready to breed she will beg to the cock bird until he is ready to breed, & it is constant. Have fun.

LOL no too quick to be a snack . The Zebs , Bourkes and Regents always roost together , should be fine up till next breeding season .

Havent ever seen the WA ones yet , must be very hard to find at the moment .


VR is it any worse than the Princess girls and there incessant begging ??
