Finches? Quail? Budgies? (Oh my!)
I would very much like some small birds for our covered outdoor garden - partly for their company, but mostly to help control the bug population.
I've had store-bought finches, and greatly enjoyed them, but they were completely cage raised, and barely knew about flying, let alone eating things that move! (Poor darlings!)
I don't necessarily need a breeding pair, but I do want a social group - whatever works for the specific breed.
(And, I'm not expecting them to be free)
If you have anything that might work, please let me know?
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
