Absolutely stunning. As a softbill side project I could not think of a more splendid species to start with.

Wishing you all the best with them (though you usually have such incredible results anyhow).

This is fabulous news, Fardad! That is one of the most beautiful pairs I have seen, even in photos. There was one at the National Cage Bird Show last November, but I don't remember the depth of color that these two have. With your expertise, and the fact that these are multi-generational domestics, I look forward to hearing of much success!! =D> =D> =D>

Lovely birds indeed. I agree with Sally, the richness of those colors are as pretty as the wild ones in Hawaii. Best of luck with them. I am sure you will have great success.

Gorgeous! :mrgreen:

Where did the other 20 pairs go?

How expensive was it to go the route you went? And, why can't we do the same in the USA?
