Misty you have extremely good taste in finches! I was looking at the birds in the mixed aviary shot and was going, "yep I want that, yep I want that, yep I have that, yep I need that." :lol: The PG's especially had me drooling. It looks like they get along well with the CB's, so that's awesome because I read they can be belligerent towards eachother.

All the shots are so cool, thanks for sharing! There's a bird fair coming up tomorrow, hopefully I can pick up a pair of Goldbreasts or Shafttails, whichever's the cheapest. :lol:

Such good photos :)
I LOVE the little Goldbreast buddy and Grenadier, so sweet!

And of course that must be IGOR! Look at that face!! So cute :)
Beautiful males, too, even if it's not a blue hen ;)

Thank you everyone :D

Domenic - I don't have problems from my Grens - I have more problems from my Parsons than any other breed I have :?

It has been hectic catching them all and putting them out there - I'm sure for them and me. :wink:

That picture of the Zeeb is "Ham" not Igor :wink: - Igor is a dark gray as where Ham seems to be a light back (I think), either way they both are so cute with their cute little faces.

Tiffany - I haven't caught the Blue hens yet :shock: They are free and have figured out how to hide at night so that when I do go to catch them they get away before I even have a chance. Smart stinkers :!: :lol:

You have a beautiful collection of birds, Misty, and I'm sure they love their new home.
