hi gang, received fone call from a birdy dude who attended the ararat bird sale today? told me a person had a pair of OLIVE tiels 4 sale for $650. coloured cock & normal grey split olive hen. he lost the sale by saying they dont breed true to what the parents are. he said they breed different shades of the colour in the 1 nest? dont get 2 of the same very often he said. the would be buyer said the cock bird looked more spangle than anything else in his eyes. the chap said no spangle at all in the birds. did any 1 from this forum attend the sale also & see these birds 4 sale. the person who seen them wanted a little more guff on them? i told him about a story in the bird mag a while back? he was curios thats all, leeroy

Hi Leeroy the chap selling the Olives is a good friend of mine and where all my pics have come from.Yes he is true to his word and being honest as he bred them in Light medium and dark phases from the one pair also very true to the overseas variety! good to see you get around lol Frank
