Abstract
The Javan Green Magpie has just been upgraded to species level in 2011. Based on IUCN criteria, it has the global status “critically endangered”. As the captive breeding is an integral aspect for the survival of this species, it is kept and bred at Cikananga Conservation Breeding Center since 2011. Here, it was possible to observe new aspects of the breeding biology, such as behaviour and diet. The experiences about keeping and breeding this species shall be summarized and presented in this article.
