Wow..you have all sorts of birds.

Actually I search thru the bird forum and found this bird "San Hu" - Black Throated Laughing Thrush very nice. I want to own one in future. Just wonder is it rare to find it in Malaysia?

i saw it once. it's around rm 600 plus.

Wow..so expensive one ah??? This is not a local Malaysia breed bird, right? My maid said her kampung has a lot. She is from Timur Timur of Indonesia, quite near northern Australia.

This bird can make many sound, very interesting.

Not really so expensive la bro... But nowadays seldom see San Hu available in KL bird shop, may be can try to search at other outstation bird shop...

Murai cacing, just like MannKL picture at avatar
Murai Gila also a family of murai
hehe

Macam MannKL picture on avatar is Murai Batu.

Today I just bought a tamed Cockatiel. Quite disappointed actually, I thought it is a Lunito, because I told the seller I want a Lutino, and apparently there is miscommunication, it turned out to be a normal grey. But it is really tamed, and it is not that ugly looking after all, so I bought it. Because I promised my son already, doesn't want to disappoint him if I didn't buy one.


Attached thumbnail(s)

not so bad. so how's your shama? does it start to sing? found any San Hu so far?

My sharma not yet sing, I think he is going to molt, his fur not neat looking lately. May be that's why he didn't sing.

Didn't really search for a San Hu actually, because still don't know much about its habitat. No hurry to get one yet, my house is fulled now. Wait till I moved to a new house this year end, then only will add more birds collection.

Ah, Juztiny, you bought a cockatiel already? The same breeder you told me ah?

Looks like a female to me. Not afraid of you?

I just checked my cockatiel's 2 eggs,.... 1 is fertile and another is not. I'm pretty worried now since there is no nest box coz once I put a nest box, it freaked my female out. So she is just sitting on her eggs in her bare cage. Honestly, all this is not planned since my female lays eggs like a chicken.

I'm still looking for a tame male cockatiel....

So you think it is a female?? The seller said is male, but some also said is female. Anyway doesn't matter lah, we get to interact (play) with it and I bought it below RM200. I still want to look for a tame Lutino.

Anyone of you here keep a Cockatoo?

My first tiel was a lutino, I was so proud of him coz I tamed him from an adult and it took me 2 years..... sad that his 3rd year ended by getting killed by a rat. I still have a soft spot for lutinos.

I was at Petaling Street, I think I saw a young pearl but of course not tame.

To know if it is female or not, look at the tail. Can you see bar patterns that look like stripes? Normally females have these stripes. Also their cheek patch is pale. Males have bright reddish orange.

But I read from another website says young or immature male will also show like female stripe, have to wait till its first molt to determine. This teil is 5 months old, yet to have its first molt.

How come a rat can kill a cockatiel? You cockatiel is not inside a cage at night? My cocker spaniels see the birds, will go crazy over the birds. I have to be very careful with them. I need to hold the bird on one hand, and another hand hold a cane. My dogs are scared of the cane.

How to take care of a Cockatiel? Does it need to bath every morning and need morning sun as well? How come my Cocktatiel doesn't know how to eat sunflower seed?

Added on April 26, 2008, 5:12 pmToday I went to Macaw Pet Trading in the Tasik Selatan, saw a 3 tamed Cockatiel for sale, (2 Lutino and 1 Pied/Pearl). Very expensive the Lutino is selling for RM300 each, and the condition of the bird not very healthy looking and not as tame as compared to the one I bought yesterday. So I didn't buy from there.

In fact many birds species in there. And quite surprise to see so many young ferret for sale there too. But the condition of the ferret very kesian, crowded in the tank.

I saw 2 San Hu for sale, but no sound one. So didn't dared to buy, quite costly RM250 each.

Anyone have any idea in keeping Java sparrow? Can Java sparrow share the same cage with Gouldian finches? I like both colourful looks, am thinking to keep a few of them in future.
