bird fairs or marts

Post by pattiej » Fri Oct 16, 2009 8:50 pm

I have normal gray zebra finches right now but I want to expand and I would love to find some CFW zebras or florida fancy's or some of the other different mutations you get from crossing florida fancy's with black breast etc... I know I'm not going to find those in a pet store (at least I haven't so far) I always check kijiji.com for breeders in my area but no luck so far. So I was hoping to find some bird fairs or marts near Chicago where I could maybe find some, or even a breeder near by. Does anyone know where I might find some? I found a bird fair in Dupage county on Oct 31 2009. I'm going to go to that and see if they have any zebra's , I'm not sure what they will have though....

Do a search for bird clubs in the Chicago area, I'm sure there are some. They always know what marts are going on. Some bird shows will have a mart in conjunction with the show, too.
