Aussie Finch Forum

I have a been keeping finches for a short time and have gone from a 1M squared modified parrot cage to a 5.5Mx2.5Mx2.6M Outdoor Planted Aviary outside my kitchen window.

I'm happy to find a Australian Forum and hope to share my breeding success.

My current stock is:
2 x Doublebarrs pairs
1 x Redhead Gouldian pair
2 x Blackhead Gouldian Juveniles
2 x Longtails pair (yellow-billed)
1 x Cordon Bleu pair
1 x Tricoloured Parrot pair
1 x Orange Bishop pair + 1 hen
2 x Diamond Firetail pair
1 x Sea Green pair
1 x Orange-breasted pair
1 x Emblema pair

Well that's me, I have a friend whos' been in Aviculture for 30+ years helping me out and I'm learning all the issues he's had and heard about over the years.

Cheers,

Simon

Hi Simon Welcome to AFF.Sounds like a very nice avairy you have,with a good selection of birds.
Did you go to the Mornington sale today ?

Hi Simon, welcome to the forum

Thanks, yes I went to the sale today with a couple of friends, have to say there were a lot of parrots...

I wanted a Green Singer pair but were already gone , did get the tricoloureds pair though.

You went then?

Hi Simon and welcome to AFF, I look forward to seeing some pictures of your birds.

Framed.

Hey Simon, Welcome aboard

Yes Simon,I was there got home @7.30.About a six hour bus trip for me.
I did see the tri colours and singers.I was tempted to get the tri colours myself after seeing them.They were a lovely looking pair.But tried to keep to my plan did diviate a little.

Yes, spending money is easy. Was $250 for the Green Singers high? I'm really after a pair.

6 Hour ride, gees thats dedication gomer

Another six hours each way to Mildura next weekend.You going

Hi Simon
