       Might try two to three pair of rollers from a breeder that you
       can pick out of the air and have the breeder sex them for
       you.Take them home and don't fly them but breed them and train
       and fly the youngsters. Good luck ;)

       Hey driver.
       Don't feel down hearted about your losses, it
       happens all the time. If the previous owner has had them out, or
       in an avairy then it's going to be harder to break them to your
       place. Either buy older birds and breed your own, or try soaping
       them when you let them out for the first few times. Just get a
       bar of soap bucket of water, make a good lather and just soap
       one wing. The idea is to unbalence the birds flight, they will
       flutter and flap, but wont be able to get of the ground if
       you've done it properly. The other is taping one wing across the
       flights using masking tape. Do it daily weather permitting, then
       after a week let them out. All the time your soaping remember to
       rattle tin corn tin and talk to them as much if not all the
       time. HTH
