Extreme Newbie Intro

Many years ago, as a young girl, my father successfully bred Zebra, Gouldian and Gold Finches together with Canaries and tiny King Quail. Basically doing so by the seat of his pants and through a lot of trial and error (no internet back then).
Now I'm retired and have the time to physically emerse myself in those wonderful memories, I want to start keeping/breeding those darling zebras. On a much smaller scale though and most certainly not on the scale of my father, who built his own 8'x6'x7' (not metric yet) aviary, just an extra large cage on castors for me, as I plan to keep them on the deck when my hubby finishes it's build.
I thought this forum would be a good site to update knowledge passed on from dad and obtain expert advice before I even consider buying the birds. I literally want to hit this hobby running.
