nice collection love Red-billed longtails!

Welcome to the forum Brian. I think iv seen some of your for sale ads on petlink?? Any particular reason to only keep yellow head gouldians? Iv been working on my yellow head white chest goulds, I don't see as Many around as the red and black head varieties. Jarryd

yellow heads are also far rarer than the others in the wild...

Yep jay your right, in vic with alot of breeders iv met and at sales iv only seen on the rare occasion some nice yh white chest goulds.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Thanks Misso - Absolute beauty - I reckon mother nature got it spot on with the Normal Yellow head Gouldian Finch.
