Hi, my name is Tom. Welcome to my bird farm. Thank you to everyone for visiting my webpage. I am located in Riverside California. This is the new home of the Opaline Peachface Mutation. I have been breeding lovbirds for quite some times. Thanks to my wife, Tiffany, and all of her support. Without her, this will not be possible. And thank you to everyone that who has helped me along the way. And of course, I like to thank a very good friend mine, Wayne, who has helped me get started. I am a hobbyist breeder of peachface lovebirds focusing on the Opaline mutation. Like most people, I don't have too much time and room, to breed all of the lovebird mutations. I am mainly focusing on the Blue Violet Opaline Mutation along side wit the normal White Face Blue Violet lovebirds mutations. The blue mutation is the most fun to breed. On the top are some of my new pairs from this year babies. The colors are just simply amazing. I will be producing more blue and violet factors by the end of the year. Definitely, next year will even be more exciting for me and everyone looking for the violet mutations. I will be producing more and more varieties of blue violet mutations and the blue violet opaline mutations. You probably think I will be asking a lot of money for them. Probably, but probably more reasonable than most other places.

I will try to match anyone prices as long as they are reansonable and that they actually have it or them available for sale. If I can't match it, it means that I might buy those birds myself. Or, I will tell you to buy it from them.

If you are looking for opaline lovebirds, you know how much they are. Don't even think about the blue violet opaline mutations or even the normal blue violets. They are very hard to find. Forget about the prices. Be happy that you found one. I don't know how many people actually seen the blue violet mutations and the blue violet opaline mutations. I have produce plenty of the blue violet mutations. I normally charge $40 to $60 each. I also produce a few blue violet opaline mutations. I normally charge $100 to $250 each. The prices will depends on the coloration of the birds. By next year, there will just be more to choose from. As of now, I will not offering too many blue violet mutations. I am trying to keep as many as I can. By September, I will offering more blue violet mutations for sale. Just be patience. I am however selling the green opaline for $40 each and the seagreen opaline for $60 each. Just visit my for sale page. There will also be other colors available.

Anyone looking for lutino and creamino opalines, I don't have that available yet. I will have them available by the end of the year. And hopefully, a lot sooner than that. Most of the pairs I have should be ready by this summer. I will be selling the lutino opaline for $100 each and the creamino for $150 each. Hopefully, I will have the blue violets mutations, the lutino opalines, and the creamino opalines available all in September. I am just not sure if anyone will return in September.

For anyone coming back in September, you might see some of the prices dropping. I am thinking of dropping the price of the green male split to opaline for $20 and the dutch blue male split to opaline for $25. The green opaline will be $30 each. The seagreen opaline will be $40 each. Most likely other color mutations will be cheaper as well. I want to reward people that are waiting to get the birds from me. Hopefully this will put lots of smile on people faces in September. So, please be patient.

By the way, I am also very big on show or exibition English Budgies. I am upgrading on them as well. Right now, I do have some for sale, but I am keeping most of them for my breeding program. So, if anyone wants to sale or trade your English Budgies, please let me know. You can send me some pictures and we can work on the prices. Please also check the for sale page for what I have available on them.

Also, if you are looking for handraised lovebirds and English Budgies, you have to email me. I do not post the handraised babies. Those babies rotate all the time. My handraised babies are normally $25 for normals peachface and $35 lutinos. For others, they normally depend on the colors and mutations.

All of my breeders are bred in an enclosed safety cage with concreted floor, 1/2 plywood on the side, 1/2 screen mash, and metal bug screen to keep bugs away. And of course, I have 4 dogs running in my backyard. Hopefully, they would be enough deterent.

BREEDING LOVEBIRDS

This is the site I used most often, the http://pinlovebird.com. They give you tips and how to breed their lovebirds. The nesting material, the nestboxes, and the foods they use to breed their lovebirds. They have been breeding for years and are very successful at it. If you want to immitate anyone on how to breed lovebirds, they would be the one. This is also a basic site I also reommend to read, Lovebirds: background, diet, breeding, and training, this is given by the African lovebird society. Anyone who needs more informations, please just email me. And of course, if you are crazy about breeding color mutation and genetics, please read on the genetics of the lovebirds provided by the African Lovebird Society, http://www.africanlovebirdsociety.com/genetics/. Hopefully, with all of the informations, you are now on you way to producing beautiful lovebird babies.

SHIPPING

First of all, I do ship birds but only within the United States only. I ship through Delta Pet First Cargo. If you are from Canada or any other countries, I do not ship there. My minimum order requirement is $300. Shipping and handling cost is normally $130. That includes the crate and insurance I purchased to protect the birds.
