The Gouldian Finch Hardcover – January 1, 1986

This book is a must have for all of you Lady Gouldian Finch lovers. The book came in excellent shape and was expedient on delivery.

If you have never kept these birds, decent and fairly good information. If you have, look elsewhere for the good stuff.

Excellent, thorough book. Very detailed -- i refer to this book often.

out dated information

This book is very useful for someone interested in keeping and breeding gouldianfinches; reviews the color varieties and living conditions in the wild, a history of keeping and breeding in captivity and recomendations in terms of acclimatizing new birds, housing them and nutritional requirements. Recommendations for both cage and colony breeding are provided as well as chapter on genetics. Chapters contain many illustrations to help the reader. I have found this book very useful and have returned to it again and again over the years that I have had it. Very beneficial both for the experienced breeder and the "newbie" wanting to learn about the care required for these birds.

Purchase for my Grandad and he loves it.
