Hi,
I joined the forum a few months ago because I was planning to get a budgie, well, now, after months of research and looking at cages and toys, it's becoming more of I am getting a budgie
I will be moving down to Portsmouth today, and will be able to actually get the budgie maybe around August time (because I will be back from my July holiday then).
My perfect budgie would be this colour www.riversideaviaries.co.uk/viewer.php?id=birdIMG_1001_big.jpg (the one on the right) and a male. However, I'm really struggling to find a breeder in the area that does this colour and is not hugely overpriced! I emailed the people at "river side aviaries" (who breed all sorts of birds in hampshire) asking about if they have any budgies of such a colour and how much they are... Everything seemed to be perfect... except the price! I am on a budget (I've bought the cage and will be buying toys and perches and things pretty soon) and cannot afford £28 for one budgie... especially since other places (petshops) are offering around £12 to £20....
I've been googling for ages and cannot find another breeder in Hampshire, around the Portsmouth area... So, does anyone on here knows anyone (who preferably has an email rather than a phone number!) who breeds pet budgies for a reasonable price (less than £20 preferably!) in the colour and gender i'm after?
If I can't find a breeder, I will have to resort to petshops... which I don't really want to do to be honest.
Thanks
