Aussie Finch Forum

Hi.

Here some photos of my new pair of Chestnut Breasted Munias. Both from 2010. The photos are too big so I post the link of them in my blog.

P.S: In the profile of this species, in the part of the mutations only show the Black but here in Europe we have the Fawn

Very nice, thanks for the link.

Luís Lourenço ,
Very nice chestnut breasted manikins mate I hope you have a lot of success with them.


Thanks Nathan

No problem Diane
Thanks Nathan, I hope too, Lonchura is my favorite genus of finches.

Luis,
How much do you Pay for a pair over there?.


Thanks Nathan

Hi Nathan.
My pair was 60 Euros (82.69 Australian dollars) but I bought them to a friend of mine
The normal price by pair is something between 80€ to 100€ (the Fawns are 120€ pair)

Luise,
$200 is way to expensive they are $25 a pair over here.


Thanks Nathan

Hi Nathan.

Well, compared to the price over there yes they are expensive but Chestnuts are uncommon in Portugal ...
By the way, can you tell me the prices of this species in Australia:

• Gouldian
  Lonchura molucca
  Star finch
  Scally breasted munia

Gouldians =$10 a pair from my local breeder
Lonchura molucca? What mannikans is that?.
Star finch=$22
Scaly breasted munia = $50
All these prices are breeders prices.

Thanks Nathan

Unsure of the scaly breasted or the lonchura, but most of the time a mature, coloured pair of normal gouldians is between $40 and $50, and star finches $30 to $40.
