haha Thanks Jimmy, This 'case' has intrigued me. I love to help. Here is the tutorial (is my spelling right? ) : http://forums.budgiebreeders.asn.au/index....act=SR&f=51

There is also a tutorial on here about how to post pictures if your confused

If you could PM me some pcitures (if you feel insecure about postingt hem on here) I would love to help. Or post them on here

Haha, I did so bad! 1- Wrong! 2. Correct 3. Correct 4. Wrong! 5. Correct 6. Dom. 3 out of 4 6. Rec. 2 out of 4 6. SL 4 out of 4 7. Just outright wrong 8. Correct 9. 2 out of 3 10. Correct

okay, Well the chances are you have a DF Spangle. Does he have any green on him? Like maybe on the back of his head? If he is a pied he would be a Dom. Pied.

A male Lutino should have a Pink or purple cere. Hen should have brown. If your "lutino" has a blue cere, he may be a pied , check him for any green, or he may be a double factor spangle. Check the eyes again, because they will not be red unless he is a Lutino

Has the hen been with the same cock both times? It would help if we knew the outcomes of the chicks from previous clutches. The way to tell if the cock is a cock, His cere (fleshy part above nose) should be pink or a purple colour. If both of their noses are brown, you have two hens

Thanks Kaz! I looked at their site

I don't know how the hen did it, but 6 out of 7 is great! Another chick has hatched form the Green Cinnamons, but another had died The youngest died, I think it was because she had the 5 in the nest. Another chick has been banded also. Photo's soon....

Hi! Just a couple questions 1. Does anyone know if Brisbane costs? Like when you said it costs $50 but some airports allow you to check in your birds as luggage, for free (unless you pack heavy and need to pay extra like me ) 2. What airlines allow you to use pet travel? Ta! Squeak.

I have had the same thing happen to me. $4 for a hand-reared baby. I have been trying to work out a good way to sell. Because I hand-rear my bubs and sell them to make money for my show birds, I can't afford $4 for a clutch of three that I wake up at 6am in the morning to feed. Try maybe making an advert in the paper, or selling at another shop.

Test breeding would be the only way to tell that. So what has that cinnamon chick ended up being? A YF Sky Blue Cinnamon? Pretty Pretty.

Thanks Guys! okay well the second chick on the Green Cinnamons clutch is banded, and she has another chick hatch! So now, with 5 chicks in her nest and only one in the Grey-Green and Blue pairs' box, I fostered the oldest two from the green cinnamons. So three chicks in each now.

I have beenr esearching into crop needles and I find two GREAT videos on youtube: The second video actually shows a demonstration on it. It is important to hold the needle itself andto twist it as it goes down. Also, just a note, a budgie should be using a 16g one as 18g could easily go down their windpipe

Hello! These birds were paired on the 8th of March. 3 pairs in total.

Second Pair- Sky Blue Cock (No splits! :laughter: ) X Opaline Grey Green Cinnamon Hen Black Ring -> Black Ring 5 eggs in total 2 chicks (one dead) First Chick Banded 11-April Third Pair- Opaline Grey Green TCB Cock X Lutino Hen Red Ring -> Red Ring 0 eggs in total 0 chicks

I love all your birds Kaz <3

Definetley NOT a Clearbody budgie. 1. Clearbodies have up to 50% body diffused or absent body colour. If this was a clearbody, it would have AWFUL suffusion for one, and most clearbodies aren't that bad. 2. Clearbody normally doesnt occur in pet-types. 3. The wing markings are dark at the top and fade to a light grey toward the tips of the wings. Without seeing the rest of the birds body and wings, it is uncertain.

Just wondering where all our colour standars have gone? I can help type up some new ones if the other ones were deleted :question:

I had the nicest hen, GF opaline cinnamon I think. Light Green. So pale and pastel then I have a photo of lime green and pale, then bright, lime green. She was stunning, she got away though. I will see if I can get some photos

Thankyou Kaz I got the cock that was in with the lutino hen from a backyard pet-type breeder. When I was given the Lute girl and second cock later on as a gift from a club member, it turns out the two lute boys must be related! They definitely look related. Haha I just remembered I have another clear body in the aviary. I suppose more photos :rofl:

Thankyou! My violet hen is sick, so I wouldn't want to post a picture right now. TCB's are a forgotten and ignored mutation almost. I am looking at possibly turning to TCB's altogether. Here are the two boys- The only bad things with these little fella's is YF reduced the size, or takes longer to develop or something. Otherwise CUTIES!n :rofl:

Mmmmh. Interesting All my greens have blue tails, apart from my cinnamons I think

I pair my clearbodies to Ino's to get rid of the suffusion. 50% Clearbody split Ino cocks, 50% Clearbody hens. I keep opaline in my clearbodies, I prefer them like that. Here is a site: http://www.bestofbreeds.net/al-nasser/article8.htm Here are my cocks: Opaline Grey-Green Clearbody Cock. Red Ring. Opaline Grey-Green Clearbody Cock with the Lutino Hen. Red Ring hen. These two have been... getting interested in breeding. Haha Eggs any day. I also have a Opaline Violet and another Opaline Clearbody Grey-Green Cock.

Do we still need more? I can post a couple of my four.
