Need to hand reared for them to be a pet.
Indian Ringnecks, appropriat name I think.
Cut throats & aberdeens, just don't do anything for me.

I SORTA agree, but cutthroats are both kinda nice in my eyes. They are aggressive and all...

I am the same a VR i hate indian ringnecks as well. we have a wild population over here in the eastern suburbs of perth the trap a few every now and then and they are not just green either. had a blue one the other week in my cross hairs but the people in the park wouldn't pi@s off for me to do my business, I have a good friend who works as a bio hazard officer for the ag dept over here whos job is to eliminate the buggers, they may make a great pet in the house but out in the wild they are a bloody menace, they should make the laws a bit stricter as they don't have to pay a fee to keep them, but the do require a trap door on there cage but when you keep them in small cage your asking for trouble.. well thats me for the night......pete on the finches i would say goldfinches ...

All these Gold Finch haters is not Good. I bet.you had trapped Birds.
Try and get your hands on Aviary bred stock.
I Promise it will be different and you will learn a lit from them.
Oh probably Javas are my least liked, never really appealed to me
