Re: baby birds I brought to the last meeting/fish for sale



Some are all or half gold, but they don't have the black specks or the intensity of the yellow of the koi line. More a golden color. They do have a nice sky blue tinge to the underparts though. My favorite pair got nibbled too many times and their fins bend too easily rather than being bolt upright when they are still. They are free to good home. Excellent color and even with the kink in the fin they still look better than 3/4 of what I see in a lot of stores... To me it's not perfect though. Not that perfect fins on a long finned fish ever last in a community tank :)

Do any of your angel fish have golden colors, like the "Koi Angelfish"?

Kate-
I would be interested in some of the fish you have. If you will be at the next meeting we can talk there. If I remember you are also in Olympia, maybe we could meet closer to home as well. let me know

I have gouldians but am selling out. They are terrible parents and there are no buyers around here, I can't get anyone to show up unless they are "free to good homes" My next deal will be buy one get one free starting in 2 weeks... they take up a lot of space too, you can't keep them in little cages like a canary. I have society finches too, which are better but very messy. I have way too many pets-37 fish tanks and 10 cages of birds, and need to cut WAY back :) So I am going to try and get rid of all the finches by the end of the year, maybe sooner as I will probably have to move soon. Anyone want a deal on gouldians? Got a ton of killies here that need to go too, mostly young gardneri Misaje, gardneri Lafia gold, and Aphyosemion striatum. Angels too, still got 20 or more. They will probably all go to The Fish Store next Tuesday. Heterandria formosa still coming out my ears, anyone want them? I haven't had a job since March so can't justify feeding and paying rent for a room full of fish and birds. Kate Holly wrote:
Oh my gosh, I LOVE Gouldians. Do you have just 1 breeding pair? I read that they are not the best parents. Kate, you must have a zoo like me! Lol. I have 1 dog, 3 cats, 1 cockatiel, and 7 aquariums.

They are gouldian finches. I think they were just a few days old at the last meeting. Here is how they look today: http://www.fotolog.net/electrokate/?pid=7725594 The yellow with the vein on the left bird's chest is the crop, where they pack in a ton of food every few hours and store it til it passes to their stomachs. When I brought them to the last meeting they were tiny. I didn't show everyone as I wasn't really sure it was good for them and I didn't really know if they would make it. One didn't but these two look strong enough. I am a little worried about the runty one. Kate Holly wrote:


What kind of birds? I missed them last time... -----Original Message----- From: owner-gsas-member@thekrib.com [mailto:owner-gsas-member@thekrib.com] On Behalf Of rick-rose@comcast.net Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2004 2:27 PM To: gsas-member@thekrib.com Subject: Re: baby birds I brought to the last meeting

Hi Kate, The anit-pet policy was specifically for the Seattle Aquarium to protect their wildlife population. Since we no longer meet there, it shouldn't be a problem. This doesn't make it a free-for-all - but I don't imagine that a hand-full of baby birds that are contained would be a problem. As far as I can remember, there is very little COVERED parking available at SPU - plenty of parking, but most of it is out in the open. I'd like to see the birds again :) Rick





Hi, I have a friend who is looking for a cheap used aquarium for cichlids in the 30 gallon range or if bigger in a "tall" style. Anyone want to shed a spare tank? She will build cabinet and lighting but I bet a filter system would also be desirable... The space is 3 feet wide so narrower would be good, since there will be a big ol pile of rocks it should have some depth front to back. I have a 45 tall that is perfect but it's seal is on the way out so I don't want to have her put that over her brand spanking new carpet, she is a friend and all. She would also appreciate plants for her big tank, so if you have both to sell, even better. Anyone want to see the baby birds I brought to the last meeting/should I not bring them to the upcoming one? I think they are old enough to leave unattended for the day but it's hard to say. I know we have an anti pet rule for non fish critters, don't want to bother anyone. On the other hand they are darn cute, small and caged, and not quite weaned. I think I have the option of leaving them in the car if there is shady parking if it's not ok to bring them in.
