Thumbs up Special visit to Rupert's Parrot Collection at Mandai Bird Sanctuary.

Many would have heard of Col Rupert Gwee's passion in keeping parrots but not many people have the chance to view his collection of 900 over parrots. Mr Rupert is a private hobbyist of bird breeding in Singapore, he offers advice about bird keeping in this forum, anything you need to know about your bird, you can contact him directly via email or the PM function. I'm very lucky to have spent several hours with him in Mandai Bird Sanctuary today and learnt quite alot in parrot breeding and keeping. Here are some pictures for the members to share. The picture shows Mr Rupert in green and Silvanus in orange shirt.

Some of the chicks still need lots of tender loving care and some are ready to be rehome.

I am also impressed by these pictures. they are really awesome and give me insights into a parrot farm

I have seen many other images and resource from this forum and think that they are benefitical for the members here.. now with this set of wonderful pictures, I'll like to think that this forum is really one of the most serious and resourceful pet site in Singapore.. better than many other pet forums ... This forum really wins interms of content and pet connections

nice work with all the mods and members..
