Oh Good Lordy.... Made for entertaining light reading if nothing else hahahaaaa

I'm just a SUCKER for their lil rubbery fat tongues SO CUTE!!

hahahaa Dont worry Jimmy.. im with you

Pickles does his best pucker up pose to Ketchup.. "KISS ME Ketchup!!" "Oh you want a kisssssssss" "Whats your problem? ... was YOUR idea!!" "There is NOTHING wrong with a lil tongue in nose action.. stop your fussing!" heheeeee lil Mayo is fast asleep.. most likely lucky for her ..

Yeah the reason he looks so ick and scruffy is that he went through a "bald" stage and lost quite a few of his feathers.. im not sure if they are growing back new or its just the broken ones still growing.. Thank you all so much..

The pied was in a seperate clutch.. the last two are clutch mates though..

Well im TOTALLY lost when it comes to naming the pretty colours these days but.. ummm Ketchup (the last one in the pics) everyone is saying a VIOLET ummmm but shes(?) GREEN and BLUE :ohmygod: hahaaa.. im totally lost

Aww Shucks thanks, they are cuties though huh I'm were Jimmy said i am hahaaaa .. Come on up, ill play Tour Guide ANYONE want to help me with these guys? PLEASEEEEE (**puts on best set of puppy dog eyes i own)

Okay so I'm not sure on which part to put this in as I'm wanting to know both the colors of these guys and also the sex.. First we will do Mayo who is easy in mutation although I'm still unsure on the sex.. Mayo is also a lot smaller than the other two (different parents).. Next is Pickles.. Pickles is id have to say my fave .. The photos are all taken WITHOUT a flash although I'm not sure they quite show his coloring well enough.. he is a really sweet almost violet color.. his sex has me clueless .. all i see is black hahahaaa Last but not least is scruffy lil Ketchup who I'm not sure about PERIOD.. he is a nice almost lime green with a blue butt.. Sex -I have NO CLUE hahaaaa Any and all help will be greatly appreciated Cheers

Ill try and take better photos later and post them in the correct section for help...

Yeah me too Ill have to take photos of them all later and get them all sexed and find out what they are other than just "cute" hahaaa Ive been out of the loop too long and am not up with the whole sexing and mutation thing..

Thought id take a few photos today to show you how Ketchup is going.. (preening Mayo) I'm still not sure whats going on with him.. I'm not sure if whats growing is just the ends of the feathers that fell out or if hey are new ones coming through I'm totally in love with his huge EYES.

Awww What a PERFECT pet to have.. your son is very lucky

Ohhhhh how cute are those.. much more purdy than shop bought ones.. Think i need to invest in some beads to make my guys some cute swings.. Mmm Imagine some really pretty jumbo sized ones for my bigger parrots They would certainly brighten the place up They look SO GOOD!!

Ketchup is still loosing feathers today.. ones from his wings, just not his flights YET.. He seems really strong so I'm hoping that he will come through this perhaps bald at worst but still at least kicking :star:

16. When you refer to others and your own mouth as a BEAK (please tell me I'm not the only one to do it hahaa) :star:

Keep in mind though that if the beads are not really made for parrots to be chewing on but for human use and the information says the varnish is non toxic.. it still COULD be toxic to birds since there are so many things that are perfectly fine for us yet can be fatal for out feathered friends.. Just a thought..

MB I was thinking about the beads with varnish on them.. perhaps they could be sanded off and right back so you could use them also? .. They are beautiful.. I had a look at them on Ebay .. AWESOME price :hap:

hahaha that photo is too CUTE!! Those wooden beads are gorgeous.. and what a lucky find to get all those plastic thingy majiggys hahaha I wouldn't even KNOW what to search looking for something like that :hap:

:rofl: I'm not exactly sure which advice is best but from the little Ive read it is telling me pretty much that if the others were going to have it.. they would by now since they have been living together since they were bald peanut shaped blobs though they may not display any symptoms.. Id hate to separate him from his buddies as they all just get along so great and snuggle in together so adorable, preening and pretend feeding each other Also i guess as already stated in how its possibly transmitted .. ALL my inside birds have been exposed to it and are possible carriers :hap:.. Kinda on topic but in relation to another bird.. Kaz do you remember not to long ago i posted the photos of my little girl buddy who i was wondering if she had French moult? all her feathers are still looking ick and curly and when she started trying to fly most of her flights broke off :hug: so even though its possibly still only diet related I'm still suspicious of her.. :hug:

Thanks for that good news Kaz .. atleast i have something positive to think about now .. PHEWWWW

Sorry I missed your post here .. I PM'd you some ebay links for both the books (Tony's and the Martians in the playground one) Yup I'm an Ebay Nut :rofl: As i was saying also before, the books are not only great for you to read but also a great reference for other family members to get a little more knowledge and understanding .. siblings, grandparents etc etc .. PM ANYTIME :laughter:

Okay so .. IF its that.. the young can still grow up okayish and re grow feathers on the first moult BUT have a weakened immune system because of the Polyomavirus weakening it and making it more susceptible to diseases.. yes? Perhaps not with a chick with it really bad, perhaps they don't normally make it that far? Have you ever seen or experienced any that do make it through to the other side to live a relatively normal happy life? .. If everything goes okay with him he will be living inside here still with the inside gang.. Sorry for all the questions.. Id like to arm myself with as much information as possible so i know what to POSSIBLY expect from the situation.. although i understand its a wait and see game, I am still curious... Thank you :rofl:

Kaz are you thinking along the lines of French Moult or something else? PBFD? Id really hate to think that the others could possibly at risk :rofl: .. I don't mind hearing your possible bad news now .. at least it may prep me for whats to possibly come...

EEK.. Kaz i was hoping at least YOU would know hahahaaa I recon in a few days he may possibly be BALD :rofl: .. sexy budgie
