Selling birds.


Recommended Posts

Just a reminder. If you've got surplus birds, don't publish your address . A mate just got cleaned out of every single bird.

Far better to meet in a car park and sell your birds. I know it sounds far fetched, but make sure you're not followed home either. Otherwise you could get scum visitors to your aviary in the early hours.

They were goldies, colour canaries and bullfinches.
