Hi!

Post by Renate »

My name is Renate, and I'm 17 years old and live in Norway.
At the moment I've got a Goffin's cockatoo called Yasmine, and two cockatiels called Bonnie and Clyde. The cockatiels are laying on eggs for the first time, so that is a bit exciting. :P I've also got some horses (7, to be exact), 12 highland cattles, 1 newfoundland dog, 2 rats and two cats. (yes - I live on a farm :lol: )
I'm getting my first breeding pair of IRN (green hen and blue cock) on the 7th may, so I'm pretty excited. :)

Looking forward to learn a whole lot from you guys. :lol:

(please excuse my bad English - I'm Norwegian). :oops:

Yes, they are realy beautifull, but oh so expensive! :shock: Here in Norway I paid about 1000 dollars (6000 norwegian kr) for my Max. Birds (or anything else for that matter) is not exactly cheap in this country. :roll:

100 dollars? For an alexandrine or a IRN? Wow, that's cheap!

Yes, I do use MSN. :)

I live in Sogn og Fjordane, Sogndal. Have you ever heard of this place? :lol:

Yes, I will post pictures as soon as possible! But there has been a slight of difference in my plan.. Now both the IRNs are blue, and I'm still wondering if I should buy one of the lutino hen as well... 8) :lol:

Ah she's talking about her IRN not an Alex...they're not cheap but not that expensive here. I think its cause we have so many breeders that flood the market. I still want one... :D

100 dollars for an IRN. I know it's cheap.... normally she (the breeder) would take 250 dollars.... Sogn og Fjordane!!! I know where it is. I'm from Skien - about 17 miles south of Oslo! But I live in northern Sweden now.
