Shama price seem to be one way ticket!

For the pass two to three years i notice the price of good Shama sky rocketing!

A taimong with potential of 12inch tail is at least $4,000, which as a buyer we still have not see the end result yet. All we know is the father's tail lenght and thats all... i was with Mr xxxxx on sunday, we pay a visit to one of the shama breeder. Initial plan is to see a taimong that i like with the father's tail of 15 inch...but at the end up he bought a 1st molt shama instead.  If i am not wrong, its tail is about 11-12.5inch i think.. nice bird i would say but when the price is set and eyes just couldn't close! $7K ! As friendship price ! ( i was thinking it would be lower, but thats not the case even for him ) Just can't imagine how much it would be if not friend?? Wow.... !

No wonder some say Shama is a high end bird, its status is indeed up there! Well, i must say its really hard to find shama with long tails now a days.. remember a year ago when i go around all bird shop looking for it and the only answer i get is "almost impossible to find" !!! With the new BAN of certain SongBirds make it even harder now a days... but still haha.... ! I heard some Malaysia,Thailand and vietnam hobbist is also trying to buy from Singapore, that goes to show that even our nearby countries also can't get good Shama too! Where did all the Good Long Tail Shama go??? hmmm........
