Sometime back I wrote an article about cross fostering.
Please refer to : http://swiftletfarming.blogspot.com/2008/02/cross-fostering-of-grass-swiftlets-with.html
It seem that this cross fostering technique is getting very hot in some countries that have many Serintis (Grass Swallows) but no AF.
If your area have the same phenomena, you should look into the technique and I am very sure that the cross fostering can be very usefull especially if you can get the country to support the move.
Very recently, I was informed that a total of 10,000 eggs from Indonesia were exported to a new country who have lots of Serintis. It is hope that out of the 10,000 about 20% will be successful in this cross fostering breeding.
Once 2000 birds of AF are introduced they will quickly multiply thus allowing the locals to participate in this lucarative business.
I know with solid prove that there are many areas having lots of Serintis in Malaysia, Brunei, Philliphine, Vietnam and Thailand. If you have the way to start this propgram I amsure the AF count will multiplied to a level that are suitable to built swiftlet houses.
