I thought that place was a scam
-------------------------------------
How in the world did you think this place was a scam? They are a very reputable source, and one of the few importers of softbills.
They have not had mousebirds in for well over 2 years. I have been occassionally asking them when, and they don't plan to in the future. Aside from that ALL the birds are wild caught, and non are tame. To a serious breeder these wild caught birds are new bloodlines to the captive bred birds in the US
Imports are essential for the longevity of captive bird collections. This is one reason why there are almost no more Speckled in private breeders collections because the cative populations has very few bloodlines, and most have become old and non-reproductive.
