Hello,

I am new to the forum so apologies if I have posted this in the wrong place.

I have just lot my lovely standard green male budgie after 11 years and have to admit that I am devastated.

Thankfully my husband has agreed to me getting another one and we are hoping to do this at the start of August once I have had time to mourn Cyril (the budgie).

The problem is, I just don't know how to go about getting another one as it has been so long. I am wary of pet shops and the only bird centres seem to be Heathrow and Enfield and we live in South London. Cyril actually came from the Enfield Bird Centre but I lived much closer to it then and I worry about transporting a new baby budgie 1.5 hours across London as we don't drive.

I am looking for a young, male baby (the younger the better) so that I can train and tame him (as I did Cyril). I am open to any colours except standard green as I would find it upsetting to get an exact replica of Cyril.

Are any of you breeders that are resident in Southish London or can anyone recommend a breeder that is?

Thanks
Natalie

Tons of room in souff London... Crystal Palace (Upper Norwood) had whopper size gardens were we lived.

Sorry.. The loss of a family pet is always a sad thing be it furry, fluffy or feathered but I'm sure Cyril would have had a good life.

Here's wishing you loads of luck in tracking down an new feathered friend. Patience.

PS. Not a breeder but there is a pet shop in Sutton that has had budgies in the past or, better still, try a web search. I spotted several budgies for sale in S. London area. (Too far for me these days).

(The world owes you a living but you have to work hard to collect it)
