So you have Societies, and you're looking for another species to go with them?

There are many choices out there.... lol.

Two Green Singer males together, are a no-no. They will no get along.

Have you considered, Gouldians, Parrot Finches, Shaft Tails, some of the Waxbills ...

Green singers tend to go for about $30 each here in AZ from private breeders. As for zebras, they range from $5 to $15, except for rare mutations.

I have studied my list I would love 2 parrots or owls but the only one they have around here are society,gouldians,and zebras.right now you can only get societies and zebras at petco or pet smart (do not like there care for live animals) do get my dog food there but go to birds of Nh, have too see what there getting.I sure like the prices in AZ.not many breeders I have found around here.Anyone around would appreciate a heads up if any one knows

Have you tried getting in touch with this organization? They should be able to tell you of any breeders in your area.
