Why can't they look after it themselves. Advertising an animal it that way.

I have a feeling she's a breeder...if you click on the Gumtree page where it says "see all ads" there are cages etc...sad I know.

She was asking £5 for this little budgie last week.
I've looked up French Moult and it seems its a virus that other budgies can get it as well, so it will need to go to a home without other birds, which limits its chances further.

No, not so ...... it is not something that is passed on to other budgies .....only from parents to chicks. PBFD is the one that can be passed on, but even that seems to be rather unsure. We have a number of members who have french moult budgies with no problems with their other birds. This is where furfies/ Chinese whispers come into play ...... it is simply not a problem to the other birds in a house-hold or aviary; it is only through breeding that it MAY be passed on. I am with H2O, what has this person done wrong? At least they are not trying to pass this poor little mite as being anything other than what it is - a sweet little creature that unfortunately will probably never have the good looks of a fully fledged, flying budgie ...... we have seen too many on this forum being taken in by unscrupulous breeders and passing off French Moult budgies as being simply under-developed. This person is not doing that! Look at skysmum's JoJo ....... look at the happy and very long life he has lived ....... longer than any of my fully fledged, just as much loved, buds have managed to do. Go the french moulters, I say. |

Hi Folks, there's a lady in Germany who runs Birds-Online.de - I follow her on Facebook - she has a budgie like this poor wee thing. She gives updates on him and he has a happy life - just needs someone who is caring to see beyond the bald patches...Hope the link works. link |
