    Awe Robin they look great I think they had their clutch just a little over a year ago and they bred on the bottom of the cage. Poor Pheobe you still have eggs coming

    Welcome aboard we look foward to getting to know you and your flock. Your babies are gorgeous & so are the parents
  8. Karen just to make it easy on us and harder on you if you can post the pics of your winners, what they won, and why like your breeding journal that would be great since you have so much spare time (all joking aside I am serious )
  9. come fly to lovey guys I am waiting for you my goodness Karen they are so cute
  10. Your welcome and I would take Bubbles advice she is a breeder and knows what she is talking about when it comes to this information Keep us updated and please feel free to ask questions as you have.
  11. I am not an expert on breeding but I can give you some ideas why and I know other breeders will come in and assist. It sounds like she likes him when she wants him around (Laughing out loud) and he is young (is this his first time) and she may sense that he is young and he could be doing somethings she doesn't like which can cause the attacks. Have you bred her before and had issues with the attacks? Have you bred him before with any issues? In the end it is helpful to have your mate but if your mate continues to get attacked you are putting not only the male bird in risk but the female if the attack happens after the babies are hatched. At this time since you have tried a couple times and the attacks continue I would remove the male and put him out of calling range. Yes they will call each other that is normal but this is something you may have to deal with the flip side is a hurt male or babies. So you have to take the best case here and that would be the calling back and forth. I don't know how many eggs you have but if anything happened to either parent nature does take over and the babies can be raised by 1 parent alone and be fine as long as the clutch isn't too big.

  19. I agree with Robin and those smaller transport cages are really cheap to replace here in the US they are like 15US. Anyways I know you will do what is best
  20. Elly replied to a post in a topic in General Questions About Budgies
    You could invest in one of those stick vacs the cheapest they are here in the US are 20US and they work awesome for just daily cleaning

    yep that is what I mean Nerwen (Laughing out loud) like if you got it from a pet shop in AU
  23. good luck they are gorgeous feathers :budgiedance:
  24. Well I am not a breeding expert but reading enough and using common sense DO NOT pair these 2 again together they are obviously not fit for each other. I would remover her from your breeding program. Also she may be stressed she just was finished laying eggs infertile or not which puts stress on their bodies and then you remove her and she is like where did my eggs go and put her with another? Of course she would be protective she just had eggs and now they are gone :, they do have a recall . Anyways, that is my advice we shall see what others may say. Oh and welcome to our forums too
