Honest to god.

I saw two Kangaroo's for sale down there yesterday.

It's mental that place. I see so many things down there that just ain't right.

Yesterday, blokes got an owl in the same box/cage as 3 quite large Hawk style birds. Every two minutes one of them swooped on the poor fukka. The Thai bloke just yanked them off it. Poor owl won't be long for this world.

Now I'm more aware of what to look for in regards to sickness in birds. I reckon more than 50% of what people buy down there dies within first week.

They have some fantastic hawks and owls though. They aren't all wild. They breed them though god can only imagine how they live long enough to get to market.

You'd never a place like this in UK.

I get sad at times. A hawk, owl or songbird at least has a chance of survival in a home. They sell things that just aint gonna make it.

Woodpeckers, Kingfishers and owls being main ones.

None of the sellers know anything about what diet to feed them etc. I really doubt anyone would be able to keep a Kingfisher alive in Bangkok.

Porno bought an Asian Fairy Bluebird yesterday. She asked what it eats and the geezer told her to give it chicken feed????

Oh yeah I'm sure it loved that in the wild.

I did a little list of what I saw for sale yesterday. Google them if you're interested. (Which you probably aint).lol
