Wanted - European Goldfinches (MD)

Post by 41Gryphon » Wed Aug 06, 2014 7:51 pm

One of the species that I am definitely interested in is the European Goldfinch, but I cannot seem to find any available! For future reference, does anyone know of a breeder near Maryland? I'd be willing to make up to a 2 hour trip, one way. I'd be looking for both male and female birds. For those near me who already own European Goldfinches, where did you get yours from?

Have you tried this place?
http://www.mdexoticbirds.net/home.html
The owner's name is Morad. I've spoken to him. He seems very nice and eager to help you find what you're looking for.

Good luck!

I've checked that place out and have emailed them about his euro goldfinches, but I haven't received any replies yet. Maybe I'll try their phone. Thanks though!

Well, I've contacted Shirley at The Finch Farm (www.thefinchfarm.com), and I've placed an order for a pair of her Euro goldfinches. They arrive in a month or so, so that should give me enough time to do dome extra preparations for them. So excited!

Np. I feel lucky to be only 30mins away from this place. Owner takes care of us when we go there. Very helpful and very professional. He told me their story, it all started with a backyard aviary for them.
