Hi Tanin, i kept these bird for a while but the neighbours complained that the bird makes too much noises, their song is very loud and i have sold the bird.
But another variant of this bird which I also had, this bird live in indonesia and had a more varied song and not so loud as his brown brother.

Hi Tanin, no i not planning to breed with these birds Tanin, the birds here are very expensive at the moment, and they become only more expensive, these birds are not imported since 1997/98 and if you can buy such a bird it is generally an older bird. And if you find a pair then you must pay around 1550 Signapore dollars for the couple.
I breed with the poksay at the moment and when you have a young male poksay you can sell it here for around 725 Signapore Dollars, it is no more pleasure for the bird hobbyist of buying birds.

Seem like things get more expensive and the price is very high overthere. During the time I get mine (the laughing thrush), the price is only RM40 - about Singapore Dollar 20. But that was many years back.
