ISO: Java Finch, Northwest Indiana
I'm looking for a male Java finch. My current hen is very lonely and stores in my region get this species in only very rarely (and thus expensively too) so I need to get her a friend. A hen would be considered too.

Can't fathom a java being expensive. Too bad you didn't live closer to me. Good luck in your search. Bob

Javas are 60 dollars here. This is what my white hen cost me.

Wow, that is a lot! Whites and normals generally go for 15 to 25.00. (the uncommon ones a bit higher) When I had to quickly free up one of my cages last year, I sold three white babies to an upscale pet store for 20.00 (for all three). Bob

Re: ISO: Java Finch, Northwest Indiana
Java may get harder to find in some states compared to others. There is a law that states they are not to be transported/shipped out of the states they are currently in.
I suggest contacting an national organization like NFSS to see who breeds in your state. Also try local bird clubs.

Re: ISO: Java Finch, Northwest Indiana
I wonder how they do that when it's illegal to cross state lines, not to mention Java's are banned in a few states.
