The Official Bird Owners Page..

[tropi_flakes]

Now notice there i cant find any info on birds in this forum, so I decided to start one..
Got my first finch today its still young an im new to this so i need some help from ppl that own or owned birds like this already.. i got a parrot and some love birds but this is my first finch, and from what i was told is with the proper care they can turn into some heavy *rollers*

My main question tho, is the investment worth it... or is it a dying hobby in trinidad..

What is the point of walking around with a small bird doh?

Just live in the bush if u wanna hear birds, cuz it er gonna sing in a cage, it just focusing on escaping.

I had a parrot a few yrs ago.

Had him for a couple years well... Eventually I gave him to the Wild Fowl Trust to live amongst his bredrens.

Gonna look into getting some budgies when I have some cash. In a month or two.

To allow them to hear other birds sing. This helps them develop their own singing ability.

When you see a set of old men on a Sunday with all their birds in cages next to each other, it is some serious betting going on in bird singing competitions. Thousands of dollars are wagered on birds and as someone said before, good birds can fetch over $10,000 when sold.

[tropi_flakes]

I was talking to an old man tonight who has birds all around his house, he told me the same thing get up early and walk with the bird and also during the day get a cd with other bullfinch rolling an play it for the bird, but not to loud.. and in no time i should see progress
