Hi Everyone my name is glen and I am an Finch addict.................. :mrgreen:

I am from South Africa and have been into birds and esp Finches since forever, I am currently keeping and breeding mostly Aus Finces, as the African fincehs are to easy to come by( getting caught in avery passages and all :yawn: :yawn: ) Currently I am keeping Masked, Grass long tail and Hecks, Parrots, Parsons, Pied Red/Yell stars, Diamonds, Bichenos, and Cubans.

I Look forward to chatting and learning as much as possible from the forum.

Thanks

G... :thumbup:

Hi Glen,

I have a similar issue with double bars and peaceful doves - I have to herd them out of the shed where some of my aviaries are located.
