FINCHforum

took a trip to the stafford show yesterday, had no idea it was going to be so big or busy! had a list of what i wanted and came back with about half of my list. came home with a pair of cutthroats, which i have not had for about 14 years so very pleased to have them, and a pair of mollucan mannikins which are a new one for me and they are just lovely. i was also looking for yellow bishops but the closest i saw were napoleon weavers and they were out of colour so no idea if they were male and female of both same gender so decided not to this time. i also saw for the first time in many many years indian silver bills, and lots of them at that. I'm now kicking myself for not getting a pair!

Nice!

Nice birds!

Very pretty.

Love the Moluccan Mannikins! Have always wanted a pair but I've never seen them in the U.S.

Hello
do you have any tips for keeping & breeding Cut throates i bought a pair recently & im keeping them in a double breeding cage had a few eggs from them they sit on them for a while then abandon them for no reason so im interested in learning more

They are really nice birds and what part of uk are you from

The makikins look so similar to bengalease finches I really want a pair

This thread is 5 years old, and it doesn't look like lonchura-boi is on here any more.
