Dedicated.
Of Interest: By finding out that same unscrupulous breeders all over the world tent to breed this magnificent bird by unconventional methods.
I would like to share with you my strong belief in regard to the techniques being used to breed this magnificent bird.
Many breed this bird purely for commercial reasons using the fostering method . With this technique, the original parent Gouldian are replaced with the Bengali's finches (foster parents) I strongly belief that this is unacceptable to the dedicated breeder, those who breed them for love and their beauty
I am convinced that juveniles raised by foster parents will never, never be a normal, healthy birds. They are definitely lacking in nesting habits and do not know how to raise their young. Many breeders claim that Gouldians is bad nest builders and bad parents, but you can bet your bottom dollar those displaying these characteristic were fostered birds. Birds raised in the foster situation just plainly do not know any better because they have been imprinted with the Bengali's habits
