That's good to hear Henry...

Wow finchbreeder, a good start to the season already!!

The early warm weather has kicked of really well for me, my lovebirds have kicked off nicely, my Ringnecks have chicks, just about to put down my colony of Nyasa's after a long over due break. They seem to go better for me late in the season. I'll tell you what though, the amount of seeding grass/weeds at the moment area the area is unusual this early, so it may be something in the weather... I think it should be a really good season all round.

Just picked up a whole heap of chip board sheets so will be busy building cabinets over the next couple of weekends.
Hopefully I haven't missed the season yet, but no biggie, I'll just be ready for the next season...
