If you can pay to have it shipped, a fellow named Ponytail Joe, in Peachland, BC is a broker/importer. If he doesn't have what you want, he can often get them for you. Try contacting him:

Thanks,

I have dealt with him before.
We are working on it.
I need a cage bred or aviary bred hen.
The Australian imports are too nervouse.
Also my male is the "Parva" variety and i would prefer a hen of the same variety.
Parvas are the smallest of all the nine varieties.

Again Thank you!

Good morning, I don't think it's a parva, can you add more pictures?

I'm no parva expert but comparing the picture Bear posted to the pictures in Gostokom's album...I'd say its a parva, if thats what parva's look like.

Unless there are fake parva's running around that appear as a parva but are really something else? Like I said, I'm no expert, but it looks like the same type of bird thats represented in Gostokom's link unless I'm missing something important.

Anyways, he's purdy! I know a couple hens that would gladly be his gal, but unfortunately they're the wrong species

Hello, it is for that I asked him for more pictures of his EG, we can't tell by one picture, you agree?

I think if he doesn’t find a hen from the same subspecies, he can use another one and work on it, he can fix his subspecies after the fourth generation...a long work!!!

Here is a couple more pictures of "Willy" that is what I call him!!

I bought him as a Parva.
He was aviary bred and he sings great.
If i don't find another parva hen, i will use him to mule.
