Is this a fair price? Also is there a way to sex them?

I am only looking for pet qaulity.

Thanks so much

Is it $60 each?

 

[taraann81]

I'm not sure. I was wondering the same thing. I thought somebody who knew what the going rate for sebs would be able to guess if it was each or as a group.

I have no idea!!!

I doubt that you are going to get 4 sebs for 60 canada dollars. The birds don't look great to me but they are supposed to only be 4 months old. Frankly I doubt the posted picture is what is for sale since it is of 6 birds that look older than what is claimed for the 4 for sale. How bad do you want them?

Several look like they have angel wing(see the wings on the first one and others)--they are flipped out.

You can do better price wise and I would want to see the birds as i am not sure they are healthy.... I would advise looking elsewhere. They are most likely $60 each which is not out of line just a little high, probably for haggle room

I would like some but not so badly that I would buy unhealthy birds. I suppose I will wait and keep lokkoking.

Thanks everyone.

$60. certainly is very reasonable for started youngsters.
I've paid up to $150.
Why not go look at them?
They're not completely done growing their feathers at this age and won't look longer and fluffier until fall.
If you just want pet quality just pick our the best looking ones avoiding any that have stiff stick out wing feathers which may or may not be angel wing.

Those look like well cared for healthy birds to me, but two do look a little dubious, as far as angel wing. The price each is within reason. Angel wing is the ACTUAL TIP of the wing turning out and away from the body. You need to see them in the flesh to make a judgment on that. The last goose in the pic looks promising-gander? I am finding that the curly breasted Sebs often get a few stiff wing feathers that stick out at odd angles when a few months old. They often are the first to fall out, also. You can always inquire about the breeding to find out how closely the parents are related. You won't know until you ask! Sexing is hard with Sebs, they often fool you.
