thanks nigel that's awesome. Can you pm me your details so I can come down and see/pick her up? could I also bring another cock down for you to see if you have something to suit him? he's a yellow faced grey, yellow has bled into his chest and he's a real stunner here's a pic - not the best but you get the idea

Just got back from Nigel's place. A plethora of colours in that aviary. Very pleased with the birds I got - 2 hens and a cock, will add pics asap. And Nigel is a real nice guy and even nicer birds. It turns out that the yellow faced grey I pictured above is actually a double factor golden face... ;D ;D ;D I would advise anyone looking for a bird to get in touch with Nigel, he's not out to rob anyone and he really does have some awesome birds and is a genuinely helpful guy. I look forward to getting some more off him in the new year.

If you still have some, Nigel, I would love to get them for my boyfriends mother! I held out getting them from anywhere else because your birds are the best

Donna I havent forgotten been promised some oaps for your mother in law just waiting for a call to pick them up
I have had a few necommers here looking for birds its somewhat disturbing to hear and to see what they have bought sometimes for large sums of money It is spoiling the hobby for the new enthisiast It is not always the depth of your pocket but the willingness of the seller to eather help you or dent you when it comes to your wallet

Hi Nigel ,I am new to the forum and a Novice Budgie keeper , I recently lost my male Budgie and I am seeking a replacement bird as mate for the Hen bird which is approx 15 months old. I hope to breed at some point but essentially they are pets and would just like a really nice bird and any advice would be appreciated. I live near Abergavenny but will travel as necessary. The Hen bird is a pied cross and the cage is indoors -3ft high x2ft,and includes a nest box. I work long hours so cannot commit to a bigger project and keeping two birds seems better for the Budgies.

Hi Nigel , Many thanks for the feedback, I think you probably have a bird I would be more than happy with. I usually have every Sunday off , If it would be possible to view your birds one sunday that would be great,. if Sundays are too busy perhaps another day . Cheers
