Moving Sale

Hello Everyone,

My cockatiels are headed to a NEW aviary and in the process, I've decided to sell a few breeders. I am going to be taking pictures tonight of what I have available. Whitefaces, Pearls, Cinnamons, and MORE! Email me at klaviary@showtiels.com if you are looking for anything in particular. K&L prides themselves on top quality cockatiels. We have several young ones coming out and being handfed that are wonderful cockatiels. We also have several breeding aged birds that we will be selling.

Lines from Breeders such as:

Linda Greeson, Julia Allen, Phil Feret, Kathy Short, and more...

K&L Aviary is one of the top exhibitors in the country and has been carefully breeding cockatiels for 7 years now! We started our flock from top benching cockatiels and will continue to strive towards excellence in breeding stock and pet quality cockatiels!

Sales list in progress

Because my breeding program changes from year to year, I must actively look at my flock and change breedings and breeding plans. Because of this, I have several very nice young breeders that will be available for sale very soon. All are very young and unproven but ready to breed. Email me at klaviary@showtiels.com for more information.

Young babies (handfed and almost weaned) will be available for purchase after they wean but I do have a waiting list available for those who are interested.

Coming soon: (reserve now!)

Breeding of the week!

This week's breeding is turning out to be some of my biggest stock! I just didn't believe it would turn out so nicely. The hen is a cobby hen. Pearl pied. She has a good head and body but is lacking anything in between (a neck). She comes from two Grandchampions. Her mother is 2004 Grandchampion "Brittany" from Keith Reimers "Fabulous Four" pied line. Her mother is also from 2006 Grandchampion 16P-143-03. He is a great pearl pied/wf from Philip Feret's pied line. He has carried in some nice size to babies.

The male of these babies is a normal/cinnamon. I love this male as he has a great crest that soars where most crests have not soared before. Again, this male is from "Brandy" from Keith Reimer's "Fabulous Four" pied line and is the full sister to the above "Brittany". His father is a male owned by Ree Maple named "Hawk". Hawk had style and head and gives this to his son. I then linebred for Keith Reimers pied hoping to get really good pieds. I was surprised to see that the pied line was not unbelievably marked but they all have good size on them. The oldest baby (a normal around 8 weeks of age) is VERY nice and should do well both as a breeder and as a show prospect.

If you are interested in this line, please send me a line at klaviary@showtiels.com. This line can't be duplicated by anyone else and we are very proud of it!

Summer News

Well, its the middle of the summer for K&L Aviary! We are looking forward to another great fall show season. We are not as active during the summer but we do have a few babies, some nestlings, and some great pairs set up. We are going to start construction really soon on a new aviary. Right now, the plans have been finalized and we are going to be pulling together the last material quotes so we can get items in and get them done. We feel that separating our breeding cockatiels from our resting flock will get us better production and will help us better manage our birds. We'll post pictures on the progress.

The picture to the left is one of our first lutino babies from Isabelle. She has also produced pearl and pied for us! Congratulations to Karen A. who has reserved a wonderful lutino male from this pairing. He's turning out to be a beauty!

Until later...
