oh yeah they were the ones on petlink, no?
would LOVE some little buttonies :D :D :D but yeah. just so thin on the ground in this area... even my local every-bird-buddy adam fitzgerald knows of no breeders in this area of NSW!!
apparently people used to see them by the boxful at $20 each in south australia :problem:
