No $ Deal Here

You sound totally detached from your birds as if they were just animals. My fids are part of my family... and I don't swap family. Sorry to sound harsh, but if you want a dollar deal, please...go to McDonalds...there are none here.

CraigN,
I'm sure you realize this community is based in the U.S., not the UK. USA websites end with .com. In the U.S.A. we use dollars, not pounds. Chances are extemely slim that you will find another person here that lives in Lincolnshire, UK - seeing as how you request that all trades be done in person. And chances are even more slim you'll find someone that likes to trade birds like they do with baseball cards.

Wow I don't mean to sound harsh or disrespecting, but thats a bit heartless....to me swapping and trading birds is like having a kid, then letting them get attached and trading them to someone else. Birds may be considered animals. But here they are far more, like different species babies... and deserve respect and love and caring.. they are life long pets (in most cases) not 3 day fads...

Craig,

I am very sorry you only consider your birds animals. I guess, like people run "puppy mills", you run a "bird mill". My heart goes out to the birds you are breeding. Too bad... they probably love you more than you deserve.
