Well Hello! I have been hanging around the forum for several days reading anything and everything about finches. I just recently purchased a Red Factor and he is a beauty and boy can he sing. But, I think I caught the Bird Bug after seeing so many beautiful finches..... I started looking for finches at different stores but none were what I was looking for for one reason or another. Yesterday I found out that right here on Crooked River Ranch where I live there is a breeder of finches. SO I called her and went to see her setup. WOW! I was impressed. She showed me four Owl Finches that were hatched in January. OMG! I am in love. What cuties needless to say I came home with two that I quickly named OZ and Sidney. I am on my way and I don't see an end..
I will post some pics soon.
Thanks
Ranchnanny (Sherry)

Welcome Sherry! Oh yes, I think you've caught the Finch Fever!

Owls are total cutie pies! There are a lot of people on the Forun that raise owls so I'm sure if you have any questions someone will have great advice for you! Looking forward to seeing the photos of your new birds

!

Your owls are just beautiful. Wish i could find some in Barabdos but that seems to be impossible.
