reddawn 2,173 Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 glosters are only bred for type an to produce the perfect corona so they dont sing aswell as other canarys, they still keep folk happy as pets an small breeding projects but most are bred for show, yours sounds like its got problems tho pal lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ferret_uk 4 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Hi Mate i keep exhibition fifes/glosters/norwich/lizards and diamorphics. It could be a sign of air sac mite if the bird is constantly eating. Just keep and eye on it and if any sneezing starts shot it in an hostpital cage for 2-3 days keeping a close eye on it ATB Ferret_uk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
