Gorgeous birds!

I've started thinking about maybe, maybe a second pair of birds. 've been imagining blue capped cordon bleu (if I can find them) but am easily swayed when I see photos like these.

Red-billed Fires are lovely little birds, and sooo easy-going, they get along with everyone. They like to spend a fair amount of time on the ground (or floor of the cage). Good luck with breeding them, that is a beautiful pair!
3 Purple Grenadiers, 1 Goldbreast + 1 cat.

I love your photos- I have two pairs nd I do have to seperate them. The males would kill each other. I love their color- I never could get them with a great photos. Unless I need to get real Camera with high speed zoom for birds :)
