What do you think?

Post by FinchLover&Breeder » Fri Oct 05, 2018 11:09 am

Hey guys its me Nick again. Today I come to you asking your personal opinion. I want to add to my finches in the future so I looked online. I found a site called thefinchfarm.com and they seem pretty trustworthy. Tell me what you think? I want to get a blackcheck or two in the future but I don't know if I should trust this website or not and if their prices are good or not. Please give advice.

They're in Washington, so the shipping prices are not going to be worth it, considering that black-cheek zebras aren't extremely rare here. You'd probably be better waiting for a bird show nearby, even if it means paying someone to drive you.

As for the company itself, I've heard mixed reviews. People usually are happy with the hookbills they get, but I've seen several people say they've had problems with gouldians and societies dying on them.

The shipping cost should kill any deal. Some places quote up to $200.
Not worth it for a cheap bird like a zebra.
