Could you please tell me where I could possibly purchase a few pairs of the Roul-roul partridges from? I'm also interested in buying some pied grass finches. If you know of any breeders, could you please forward me their particulars.

Hi Stuart.
You can contact one of our members, Tinus Oberholzer on 084 458 1199 who might be able to get you some Roul Rouls.
As far as pied Grass Finches are concerned, to my knowledge there are none in SA. You may be able to get some from overseas but they too are rare over there.
Best wishes,
Mike Pidduck
