Hi Mick. Always good to mention the forum as it helps with future sponsorship from them. If you are thinking of having tests done at the moment then I would just warn that some members on here have had delays due to the post strike in Spain. Obviously this is beyond Sexados control but just thought I would let you know. Jan

You might like to look back at past posts where Hayley sorted out our usual section for FF nice and early. When we got there we were given a totally different section, in a dark dingy place where no one could find us.. I also think you need to read the letter again that you posted on FF that was sent to Peter. This wasn't about species but more about the extra costs that the parrot society put on their section. It was then decided that the FSSUK would no longer have a showing there. There was also a problem with the parrot society not issuing early entry tickets as they had previously for members who were putting birds on display. Basically if you read the messages again, it was quite clear that the parrot society were being as awkward as they could, dealing with Peter Moore. Especially when you think how long there has been a softbill section there. Jan

Just like to point out that the problems with Stafford isn't mainly an admin problem but a parrot society problem. They are doing their best to shut out any other organisation. FF has been given a hard time by them and I know the FSSUK has as well. Paul. Your support has been really appreciated and no one can blame you for having to book tickets and tables elsewhere. I have held off ordering birds myself (including off you) as I don't even know if I'll be going due to a lack of a definite FF area. It is more than a little frustrating but we will continue to try to make things work. Jan

Good job you had them tested then Olly. Hopefully you can sort out mates for them. Jan

Nice to hear. Hope you had the results you were hoping for Jan

Let me know how you get on Olly. That way I can pass feedback to sexado. Jan

Thankyou Jon. Sorry for late reply. Been away for a few weeks. Regards, Jan

I would sort some more samples. As Stormbird says, it looks like they gone missing in the post. They were very quick with mine. Jan

Thankyou Rob. Have kept all these except the hooded siskins. These are all stunning birds and great to keep. Pearl headed silverbills are getting quite hard to get these days unfortunately. Jan

Just a start hopefully . Just using 1 birdroom for now and rebuilding flight as a 12 feet by 6 feet instead if the 18 feet by 12 feet we have at the moment. Have pm'd you Paul. Have pm'd you Jimmy. Looking very smart in your new avatar. Jan

I know it's early but Me and the Hubby are looking to start with a few birds again. Just wondered if any members have, will have, may have or know anyone who have the following available for October Stafford. Genuine parent reared Gouldian finches. Prefer birds bred in slightly cooler than the average Gouldian birdrooms. Genuine parent reared painted finches. Genuine parent reared pairs of Pearl headed silverbills. Genuine parent reared Black hooded red siskins. Pairs Cuban finches. Genuine parent reared UK bred St. Helena waxbills, Looking for a few sources of these as I'm looking to make a nice colony again). Checking early so that adjustments to our current setup can be made. Thanks for reading. Jan

We was going to travel up but just couldn't get around to it. Hope you all enjoyed yourselves. Hopefully October now. Hoping to start up again with birds again this year. Jan

Well that was a great quiz. Surprising how obvious the answers to some of these are now you can see them next to the clue. Think I may have been over thinking them a little. wouldn't have got 25, 29 and 51 in a million years though. Thanks for taking the time to run it though. Jan
