Oh yes, the parents.. Actually sometimes they are not much better. I've had adults open the bird cages and put their hands inside to see if the birds were tame, without asking. We are SO going to get locks for the cages.

Honestly we have next to nothing right now :P A single budgie, a few gouldians and button quail. We still haven't got our permanent cages so we just have a few temporary ones standing around.
My boss did provide me with a price list from a dutch company that wants to sell us birds though, and asked me to select which ones we should get ^^ That kind of feels like Christmas. Though I'll probably play it safe at first and only go for things like zebras, bourks, cockatiels, budgies, lovebirds, societies, canaries, diamond doves and such. They had japanese nightingales for 75 euro if I recall correctly.. And macaws, amazons, cockatoos and such that are too large for us and caiques and similar sized birds that are worth considering.

I'll suggest a lovebird aviary and a zebra finch/canary aviary then :)

Oh boy-oh boy....
Given a chance to order what you want from this Dutch company. I think I'd go a little craaazzzyyy \:D/ \:D/ \:D/

I have never seen or heard of Japanese Nightingales... now I'll have to look them up and more than likely start drooling.

What else they got?
Do they have like a catalogue on line?

Too bad that they don't have pictures of all their birds.
It looks like quite the setup that they have over there.
