Hi,

I am looking for a mate for my Painted Finch (Emblema Picta) male. I am in Northeast Florida.

Thanks,
Lauren

I am really not a moron - but I can't seem to find a way to 'delete' this post.
Did the FAQ thing - says there should be an "edit" button - but no can find.

I have a pair that should be here tomorrow - YippeeeHurray!!!

They are packed up for tonight's Red-Eye, and I am getting them tomorrow morning from Richard Dozbaba.

He is a member here, but not on much (kcdozy).

He has some more Painted Finches, as well as some Peales Parrot finches available, of which I am getting a pair of too!

Contact him if you are interested, he is a pleasure to deal with. :-D

Rich is one of the BEST! Congrats on getting the new birds--and we'll all be looking for pictures once they are settled.

You would have to contact him directly - I really don't know what all he has, or what he is willing to part with.

Thank You all for the nice replies and Thank you Lauren and Charlie for all the advertisement, your pictures are great!
I have DNA sexed peales colored out and uncolored juveniles ready- a few painted males no hens. Also have some colored out sea greens normal's and light pied mostly hens I think along with a few uncolored RH and SG's. Have a few BF males split to lutino and some lutino BF males. I just set up 4 pairs of forbes so hope I have some luck with them this time, haven't had much luck with them in the past.
