Red Throat Parrot Finches

I decided to put all the youngsters born last year and this year, along with a few resting pairs in one of the outdoor aviaries once the weather warmed...they are loving it :D

I love the sea green ones!....Is there any special genetic combination for that color, or do you just need a sea green one to get babies with that color?....Did that make any sense?....I think you know what I am trying to say...

You can breed a seagreen to a normal and get some of each color. :D

I went out this morning and notice 2 playing house in one of the smaller nest boxes.... I forgot I had hung those as I was planning on putting some waxbills in there to breed before changing my mind to use it as a grow out flight....
needless to say the boxes are coming down #-o

Gorgeous beauties!!! (Ah, I love the PFs!)

Are you going to furnish it for breeding and let them have at it? :oops: (My that sounded crude, sorry!)

Anna, :lol:
This is intended for a grow out resting flight. As I posted earlier, I noticed the boxes that I had hung for the goldbreast and forgot to take them down...... a couple were playing around [-X Nest are out 8) No going for it if I can help it :lol:
These are some that I bred and will be sold at the the Cage Bird Menagerie Store :D Just want them to look their best for the customers so fresh air and sunshine and lots of baths :D
I will select a few pairs to place back into the other aviaries...one pair per aviary. The only other aviary that has a pair in it is my pied male and his mate...they will go to the resting big avairy once they get off of this nest :D
