I used to get them shipped from NSW, but that place is no longer selling them.

And all the places in Vic are showing as out of stock.

Does anyone know where to get them?

  I looked there before, but it's sold out unfortunately.

    That seems incredibly expensive. I’d be breeding my own at that price.

    Worth giving them a call. Could be something they will order in for you.

Interesting word, squab. When it came to seats it was originally the backrest part of a padded seat. But somehow it came to mean the base of the seat. The part you sit on. So if you are talking about the squab of a seat in an old car, and a new car, you are referring to two different parts of the seats.

  Talking about the animal. A delicacy here but cheap elsewhere in Asia

    "In culinary terminology, squab is an immature domestic pigeon, typically under four weeks old, or its meat."
    
    Eating pigeons as a delicacy? Maybe a tradition, respectable and viable. Certainly not special.

      Delicacy by reference to the price charged here

  You sit on it, but you can't take it with you is my password hint for my password "squab".

    This post now makes your password hint ambiguous!!
    
    This squab can be sat on and, if seated right, can be taken with you :P
