I have to ask what you discovered with the breeder in Florida, @Cheeky409 . Are you going to get a new baby? I would loved details ! I have looked at Ruppells as a possibility myself.I FOUND ONE!!! There is a Ruppells breeder in Florida: Beverly O'connor in Wesley Chapel. I got her name from another Pois breeder at the bird show today and spoke with her late this afternoon. Hopefully I'll have a new baby in a few weeks.
