Gloster: very tame, lively, confident and sweet-natured; lovely refined singer, tolerant of small African finches. Stocky shape; very thick feathers (See
Bruce, the Gloster Canary)
Border: similar to Gloster in nature but louder, less sophisticated song and incredible yellow colour. A bit slimmer than the Gloster.
Roller: very anxious bird, which I gave away to someone with an aviary because I thought he'd be happier there. This could have been becuase of how he was reared, though. Highly unusual song, not to everyone's taste. Slim shape.
