My name is Pauline and |I share my love of birds with my Hubby and 3 boys Anthony 22, Andrew 20, and Jeremy 16. We have been breeding birds for 24 years. Starting with budgies, them Rosellas, about 10 years ago of brought my son a cockatiel as a pet and them I caught the bird bug. I brought myself a pair of cockatiels and hand reared the babies, them I brought more cockatiels, ringnecks, plum heads, kakarikis, yellow turks, rosa bourkes, quakers, alexandrines, I love breeding them and handrearing their babies.

Hi Pauline and welcome, I have had various birds on and off since I was very young, rosellas, peaches, doves, king parrots, galahs, a White Cockie, quails, budgies, and at the moment I just have a few breeding pairs of Tiels but I'm a sucker because I love their babies too much and keep them, so I have lots of pet ones in doors you might say that I'm a nutter about my tiels but there are lots of us in here just the same, I think you will fit in here with us very well ;D

Hi Joanne, I have been in the cockatiel society for about 8 years when all the old members were there. This year i have only been to about 4 meetings. I am hoping to get to a few more next year. The club seems to be gettng it all together again. I am also a friend of Simones the lady you brought your pastleface cockatiels from. You rang me for her new number when you lost your cockatiels. I am also a friend of Wendys. I hope that is a little help.
