Well I picked up the pair of Illiger Macaws this morning. WOW is all can say. Macaws yes but totally unlike the other macaws I've kept here. Also got their 3 babies too I should be getting their new flights this weekend. Once they're set up I'll get some pics of these guys for you all. Also should have my WHite Capped Pionus pair set up too.

Justin you are worse than anyone for buying birds in fact its down right dangerous. Not only do you want all those beautiful exotic birds but unlike us you have "the big O"!!! I am talking about "Opportunity" of course. At least for most of us we can say we would ike this and that but we can't have them because we don't have them over here or they are soooo expensive. But it seems you live in a bird lovers paradise. What do you do every morning, get outta bed and think..."hmmmm might buy a couple of Macaws today" or "welll I haven't got a ..... ? so i think I'll just pop down the road and get a few of them" YOU MAKE ME SICK! Dunno how you can live with yourself...and all those birds! Oops STOP jen now, The little green envy monster is getting totally outta control here! I am getting really tired of telling you how lucky you are Justin! But of course I can't wait to see the pictures. At least we all know you will come through promptly for us all...unlike some people I could mention...... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D just joking of course.....

LMAO - Jen, i wake up some mornings and WTF am I doing? Last month I had 74 babies I was feeding. That many crying babies at 6am is enough to do your head in. It does get overwhelming at times last week was an especially bad week around here. Birds were ok but some personal family stuff back home really made me stop and think,Do I really need to be over here with these guys squawking?
There is alot of opportunity here to buy a lot of good birds. I've mad some good contacts who have everything from Black Too's to Hyacinths down to Cockatiels. I really do wish that you guys had alot more access to the amount of birds that are being bred here. Still here I am setting myself a timeline to get my butt back to Australia.
Wish I could take this guys with me but financially I would be bust. I hate stressing over where the money's coming from. I just wish some of these guys can wean quicker so I can get them moved to their new homes.

Well get as many contact's as you can for over there as im a Delegate for the Queensland Council of Birds and a little bird’y told me that import / Export might open back up in the next couple of years !!!!!!!!! And contacts would be really good for all of us as there hard to find!!!!!!!
