Nathan.

okay thanks Nerwen! The first time i candled the egg was a day old, and ive candled probably 4 times now (the oldest egg is about 9 days old now)...All i saw was a yellow yolk in all of the eggs...it was a blob that would flost around...but i didnt not see any veins! So i will check again tonight, and i will tell you guys later!...wihs me luck, im nervous that they arent fertile now! Kirby

hahahha nice story budgieloverlisa!...that would suck! But didnt you watch when she caught her? (or him)...? So, do you have pics of cage yet?..(Laughing out loud) Kirby

They should be fine..i had 3 at one time...and the males paired up, leaving ther single hen alone....then i baught another baby hen to try and seduce the males to part and turn straight..(Laughing out loud)..Which ended up working as i now have 5 eggs in the nest box for the older pair, and the younger ones are pairing up nicely which i will breed next year once hens 12 months old! (shes only like 4 now).. Kirby

I really like it!... Sorry i was buggin ya with all those concerns...enjoy it!...hope they breed in spring time..which i bet the will!..where did you gte them? breeder, freind, petshop??? And how many nest boxes do you have?....[if you colony breed, id suggest two boxes per female...so 4 in total for you...thats just me though...(Laughing out loud)] Kirby

I LOVE THEM BUDGIELOVERLISA!!!! Im that guy who baught the cage with you from e-bay from Orlando! It should be here on friday!!!...YAYAYAY!!!...i really like your birds! I have to agree, im in love with Skye the most! Would you be able to post pics of the cage from a distance, and up close so it can hold me down until i get my cage?....Im dying to get mine, and if you would post picstures, i can at least see the one im getting. and not be so crazy!...(Laughing out loud) How many do you think would fit in the cage comfortably?....im thinking 6-8...am i right or no?...Since i plan on breeding them, and buying more soon!... thx a million!!!! Kirby

(Laughing out loud)..i meant how the outer door was open...thats risky with 4 new skitich budgies....(Laughing out loud)..nice lock though!..(Laughing out loud) And is that a black cat in lower right side of screen in the shot odf the whole aviary?....that is kinda risky too!..(Laughing out loud) Do you have a heater in that thing? By The Way-i love your birds still!...B E A U T I F U L! Kirby

(Laughing out loud)..i ordered the same cage off of e-bay for a total of $174!!!....In canadaian currency, from ORlando Florida, to my house in Geulph Ontario, Canada!...which is incredbly C H E AP ! ! ! ! !! ....it should be here on friday!..cant wait man! Did you get yours yet Vroom Vroom?...we should post pics of everyone else to see our beautiful cage setups! (Laughing out loud) Kirby

hahah thx lin!!! UPDATE: Ariel laid her 4th egg on of friday March 3rd!....And she should lay another today!..to make this 5 eggs in total so far!..YAY! And my new cage should be here on friday!..YA!!!!! Kirby

I LOVE your aviary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was just wondering why the outer door is open (you should always keep that door closed no matter what!..especially with that black cat right beside the aviary!!![looks like a cat anyways]...I like the names....their unique! Also, i think you should let them go into the shletered part since they look freezing, you even have a coat on!..(Laughing out loud) Kirby

I luv them! [what kind of rodent do you have in the 10 gallon aquarium?....a hamster?] Kirby

Todays my birthday!..was to nervous to ask for rats..so im going to tomorrow!..(Laughing out loud) Tommorrow im also expecting another egg!..YAYAYA!..which will make 4 in total! She is being good mummy, and sitting on them all so far, whilst Chico sings 16 hours a day!...even louder than before!...so pray for more eggs guys! Buddy

VERY CUTE!!! I like the names: -Frankie -Kiwi -Max -Loki -Oli (Oliver) -Simon -Toby -and Tweety for him! He looks very tame, and very fun to play with!!!...an is definately a boy! Kirby

YAY Nerwen!!!.... Comgrats, and it looks like she will take good care of him....i hope*!!! Hows Marine doing?...is he being a good dadio?..(Laughing out loud) Kirby

okay great thx nerwen! OPDATE: Ariel laid her 2rd egg today at around 1pm!!!....and she has been sitting on them all day again! I will candle egg number one tonight, as it has been 5 days now! What should i see in the egg? I saw yellow in it the past couple days, same with the 2nd egg that was born (i saw a yellow thing floated around in it)!!!....My birthday is tomorrow...and im asking for two pet rats!...that i have A L W A Y S wanted!.... (my moms taking me out for dinner, so i think im going to ask then..(Laughing out loud)!...I have always been interested in rats, but i always ended up getting hamsters or gerbils! I held sweet baby rats like 3 years ago, and my mom went into the petstore with me, and she saw how cute they were...but she said fell in love with these 5 wek old hamsters, and said i could get one!..so i did..(Laughing out loud).. Then we went to hold another rat like 4 months ago, and he was crazy and jumped off the table, and hit the floor, and sqeeled like a pig, then bit the lady when she tried to grab him ..so my mom was NOT to thrilled!...So hopefully, when i ask again tomrrow night, and we go over to the petshop, i hold a beautiful, nice, docile one, to show my mom how they can be sweet, and beautiful at the same time!!!..(Laughing out loud))... So now that i have told you my constant rat needs!!!!..(Laughing out loud), do you think i will be allowed? I already have 4 birds plus more on way, a dag, a cat, 4 fish tanks, and hopeuflly two new rats!!!!...My mom loves pets, hence why she supports my hobby, and lets me get all thse things...but she has never liked rats:( Which are my favourite! (she doesnt mind rodents as i have had 9 gerbils at one time, and 4 hamsters over a period of about 8 years!....but i have no rodents currently! ps-i have 3 fish tanks now (2 freshwater, one saltwater, and the 4th is the one im going to setup in the future...which is going to be another saltwater, so im willing to sacrifice ALL the fish tanks, as i plan on selling my cichlids that count as my two freshwater, and my saltwater, as its a lot of work to do for my mom to take care of when i go off to collage or university in about 2.5 years!....where as rats only live like 2.5 years!...so she wouldnt have to take care of them....all thought i know shell love them after like a week...if im even allowed to get them!...(Laughing out loud) (Laughing out loud)..thx again nerwen! Kirby

wow..i like those colours!!!!.... When you say violets?..do you mean like Ariel is, a violet white recessive pied?..or like plain violet with black markings, and white or yellow faces?...OHH!??!?!..really? so all opalines will be female? How come Chico is a male then?....hes an opaline..I have always wondered that, that people say only females can be opaline, but then i have a male? Is it just more likely to get female opalines than males?...Like in Chicos case? thx again nerwen, i love your comments, (Laughing out loud), becuse i know im not weird by posting breeding questions since people like you actually know this stuff more than others!..(Laughing out loud) Kirby

(Laughing out loud)..no problem nerwen!... I was curious again!..(shoot me now..hahah) but i candled both eggs, and they both had a yellow thing inside of the shell....which would float to the top of the egg whenever i would move the egg!..SO im guessing thats the embriyo!!!! [or however you spell it...(Laughing out loud)]...YAY!..(Laughing out loud) ps-shes been in nest box past four days!!!!...just to point out again!, and the eggs are always warm when i touch them!...which was only twice..(Laughing out loud) thx guys for all help!..lets just wait to see what i end up gettuig, and how many! ps-what colours could i get again?..from a yellow faced blue type II recessive opaline pied, and a violet white recessive cinnamon pied?...thx! Kirby

YA!!!!...your right nerwen!.... I started a poll on justbudgies.com under breeding, and so far, 6 people have voted that 'YES the babies are fertile, and they mated while i was at school!', while NO ONE has voted 'no they will not hatch, and are infertile'..or when i wasnt home..(Laughing out loud)...or in bed..(Laughing out loud), which is right beside the cage..hahah! bye Kirby ps-you mean two days!..(Laughing out loud), the oldest one was born on saterday!....so 5 days is Wednesday which is two days away....and one before my birthday!!!..which is March, 2nd!!!....yayayaya!!!..(Laughing out loud)

Dont you mean $144 in total? not $99?...like whats the total we write on the order? Isnt it $144 American?!?!?!..(Laughing out loud). And how do we write $144 American on a money order? does it say, american or candian, and you just check off the box for one or the other?..or... thx Kirby

UPDATE: Ariel laid a new egg today!...so theres two now!....The newest egg is a tad bigger than the older one, but Ariel has been incubating them both!, So, yes!, so do think they are fertile becuse i know hens get a special sense on whether or not they are fertile, and if they are infertile, she does not incubate them! So, i think were in business!...HOPEFULLY!..Chico is glowing like a proud poppa!, he has been waiting his whole life to have a perfect little family, and i hope his wish is going to be granted in about 15 days!!....*my wish aswell...HAHAH* Kirby

I agree with Shawna! Kirby

YAY!!!!.....i love them all Shawna!!!!... (Laughing out loud), yes i did see your signiture...(Laughing out loud)...cheaky you! Could you post a FCS??? (F=full C=cage S=shot), of the cage and the beautiful babies ?!?!?!?... thx Kirby

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP!!!!..i PM'd ya back! So, you just put a cheque for $99 AMERICAN plus $45...all american currency, or...did u just put $174 ? thx!...will talk to my dad tonight about when i can order it... PS-Oh yaaaaa guys!!!...my hen laid 2 eggs! (one on saterday, one today like 10 minutes ago!!!, but i have not seen them mate! Unless they did while i was at school....shes been incubating them this whole time, so im guessing there fertile cuz i know hens dont incubate them if they are infertile!!!) thx again! Kirby

(Laughing out loud)..true Which is why you have to pray for me!!!..hahahahahah thx Kirby

YAY!!!!!..... Im here in Guelph Ontario....so it would costs only $174 CAN???..REALLY!!..wowowowowowowowowo! So, could you walk me through thee process of prices e.t.c. Like, can you list down how you paid, which order you got, the price you baught it off of the guy at? (as in did u have to bid like $100 CAN, or did you just e-mail him, and he shipped you one?...becuase he said theres only 4 left on that e-bay link...), and any other info i should know before hand. Did u pay when it got delivered to your door?, or did u use paypal to the dealer in Orlando?.... sry for all questions, but im allowed to buy it if i know how much money ill need to pay to every last penny!...hahah...my parents hate unexpected charges...but then again, who doesnt..hahaha thx a looooot! Kirby

(Laughing out loud)...So, im guessing you think the egg is fertile?.... Shes been in nest box ALL day incubating her new baby who *hopefully* hatches!!!....Chico misses playing with her, and is sitting by himself, singing....he looks soo sad, yet soo happy that he might be a father soon!....(Laughing out loud) Anyone else got opinions? thx Kirby
