moss 70 Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 They should cost around the same any time of year, the next one you get give at least 2x per week acidification in the water I use voir or eviroklenz u can you organic apple cider vinegar this will help keep nasty from attaching to the birds gut and also help keep them in good condition Quote Link to post Share on other sites

moss 70 Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 I have many bird friends in belgium, Holland, Germany and Italy many are world champions on the continent quite a few of them sell the birds in young feather I have bought redpoll and chaffinch this way from breeders just to make sure i have them, I even know a dealer over here who has bought siberian goldfinchs and mounted them out, me personally I wouldn't as they are a stronger bird after the moult Quote Link to post Share on other sites
