Tish thank-you they are the only place close to me(about 45 min.) that sells very nice birds,I have never had any problems with any of them.And they sell more then just society and zebras.
@Babs thank-you They are in my bedroom for quartine,the background wall is a shower curtain works great much easier to wash down then the wall.I have some in my living room too and my keets think it a real tree they are always tring to pick at it.funny to watch.

Congratulations on the new kids. I think you're going to love them.

They are sweet tiny birds, and I enjoy them as well.

Look at this little darling, right after his bath :D

Stuart whitingI have enjoyed them they are so sweet not sure if have male or female,but really not breeding they do love one another they are in 2 F030 cages with gold breast and red cheeks blues,so the six of them are very happy with all there flying room.We thought the gold breast were early rises!!!!! the orange cheeks are up before sun up 4:00----4:30 AM.I find that funny because they are the last ones out at night,must be because they can only stay still for a short time.Next to my society they are one of my favorites still am amazed I found them.
