This was on a forum I was browsing- I know some of you are in FL- just thought I would do an FYI:

....ON AUGUST 22,2008 I PURCHASED 6 BABY BLUE AND GOLDS FROM A BREEDER IN OCALA FLORIDA---HE HAS 2 BIRDFARMS ONE IN OCALA AND IN LEESBURGH FLORIDA---5 DAYS AFTER THE PURCHASE ONE BABY DIED AND I ASSUMED IT ASPIRATED AND CHALKED IT UP TO A LOSS---4 DAYS LATER ANOTHER DIED AND DECIDED TO HAVE THE BABY NECROPSIED---IT TESTED POSITIVE FOR POLYOMA---YESTERDAY ANOTHER BABY DIED---I AM NOT POSTING THIS AD OUT OF MEANNESS BUT POSTING IT BECAUSE I DONT WANT ANOTHER BROKER OR INDIVIDUAL TO LIVE THIS NIGHTMARE---HAVE YOUR BABIES TESTED PRIOR TO PURCHASE AND OR VACCINATED---POLYOMA IS A HORRIBLE DEATH---2 DIED IN MY ARMS---I WILL NEVER FORGET THE ONE BABY'S CRY---BUYERS BEWARE

Not that you are buying- but just to know it might be in your area.

Ocala is a half hour to the north of me and Leesburg is a half hour to the south of me. I know many breeders in the area and need to know who the breeder is - if that is possible. Email me if the name is not to be made public.
