They're (Malabars) a very neat bird & pretty good value lately too.

Yes I saw the ad Jusdeb. I rang about the Slaty heads today but he has already sold them.

I can vouch for the Malabars. I have 2 prs that are just gorgeous. They are a bit louder than plumheads but still a lot better than a lot of other parrots.
Oh, and when the cock birds become alarmed they often lean forward on the perch, almost like they're on tippy toes and about to fall over, with pupils dilating and swaying forwards and backwards on the perch-absolutley amazing!

Go for it VP!
