Especially interested in Dominant Pieds, Spangles and Yellow Faces. I have contacted a few clubs as well and I am also waiting to hear back from them but thought I'd try here as well. I have bred pet type budgies when I was in high school and show budgies a few years ago but I was unlucky enough to have a tree get blown down onto my aviary before my first rung babies reached 12 months. After that I gave up on them for a while but thought I might give it another go. I commute between Sydney and Shoalhaven areas regularly so if you're within these areas and could help me out personally or put me into contact with someone who could help please let me know :-) Thanks in advance!

Contacting breeders through a bird club is also a good alternative as some birds go for silly prices at auctions. Link to comment

I'm sure they'll get around to it eventually :-P Link to comment
