Dating For Budgerigars

Featured Replies

Posted

I have been watching a secret dating venture between two budgies.

 

The thing is he is in one aviary and she is in the next aviary.

 

They are persistent though. They meet up all the time and kiss each other through the mesh.

That is so sweet :rofl: Will they continue dating through the wire or will you let them breed?

I know that they are both greygreens and the concensus is that you should not put greygreen to greygreen, but they are both good looking birds, good heads, masks and spots.

 

You could do worse than to pair them together.

The hen is a daughter of Omelette's...the cock I would have to check his legring. As we got some pretty good babies out of Omelette who was cinnamon opaline grey green and her beau a grey green spangle I wont worry too much about grey green to grey green pairings. I may look for a better cock or I may just go with their choices.

The thing is if I go in one aviary and catch her and then go in the other to catch him I may not recognise him once he flies back to the flock. Maybe I had better catch him first as I would recognise her :laughter:

Aww :laughter: Give them a shot... you can't deny LOVE !!! :laughter:

Aww... Does she have a clean back?

Not sure, but not really relevant. The important thing with show budgies first is to get size and conformation right, markings can wait a little while. When a show budgie is judged markings only make up 15 points. So, you go off the size and shape and head of the budgie, and its stance first.
