We saw an ad in the paper in our area, we called him up. We asked of what types does he have. He rattled off a few colours such as blue,white, then he said he had few purple ones for sale, if anyone is interested, pm us and we will give the number of the breeder. He is based in Wollongong area of NSW. We bought a bird from him before, they looked all healthy and well kept. Just wanted to pass that information along. As we have been told that Violets are rare, whether that is true or not as this guy has a few of them. Hope everyone is having a great day.

violets are only rare if you dont understand the genetics side of the modifying gene

much sorted though but not rare i mostly only ever breed violets in my pet line and am yet to go into colour genetics with my show birds but will one day

few years off yet though

it was very nice of you to tell people of these birds but did not mention if show or pet

i my self do not need to know as im in vic however others may wish to know save many pms

Violets arent rare but may be rarely seen in petshops as they would be the first ones sold. Howeever members on here most likely would appreciate being told where they can get one if they are after some themselves

These would be pet ones. Sorry about the confusion, I forget that there are ones for show and ones for pets lol. This was the breeder where we got Kramer,our violet budgie, from. We were just looking for a Budgie and he happened to be still available for sale,we grabbed him right away. He kept eyeing my dinner off that I had set next to the cage, and had gone off to do something else real quick, I was told he kept looking and kept sliding over to where the dinner was, when he realized he was being watched, he slid back to the other side of the perch and kept doing that till I got back, lol

There's always a few in the petshop round here for some reason. Maybe somebody supplies them.
