Right side ? Yes, I think so. I will take a closer look

I agree with GB's pairings advice

Hi and welcome Litsa I have some bad news for you I am afraid. You never ever add new budgies to existing without a period of quarantine. 30 days in another cage in another room in another airspace. What seemed like a cute thing to do with the playdate could have caused the death of Billy. Budgies these days can be carriers of many disease even without showing symptoms. Your two new ones might have passed a disease onto Billy which caused his death. Diseases can be contracted within a week to ten day period or thereabouts. Sorry to tell you this but if ever in the same position again ( like buying in new birds ) never ever add new birds to existing birds without doing a period of quarantine. Please do observe a quarantine period and get the birds checked by a well bird checkup at the vets.

Ditto. Call Glen GLENDA Its my sisters name Do we now need to change your user name to Glendabird ? PS reason why Glen is a female is the cere is whitish blue Common in young females and females not yet in breeding condition. No doubt at all ....sorry

you have already asked this in your other topic. so I am closing this and will delete

Pied ? NO

Not exactly but if they go untreated they can affect beak, face, legs eyes etc. A budgies beak will warp and grow out of control..........the mites make tunnels through the budgies beak and face, legs and around eyes. The budgie gets miserable, very sick and may die if it takes hold in a big way and isnt treated.

Treat birds you find with scalyface with spot on ivermectin available from bird vets.

Somebody may be using old rings to ID their birds and tell the breeder a bird is split for something. Makes it hard if you bought the bird because you dont know which ring applies to the bird. Look closely and see if either or both rings are split and that will tell you if they were put on as an adult.

Red ring. Breeders code BB year of hatching 2009 birds number 641 Gold ring breeders code or club code bsb year of hatching 2006....you read it upside down ( if a hen getting too old ) Birds number 379

Comfortable for two birds

You can post bigger pictures here. Allowable sizes are 480 by 640

I would buy the second cage and not the first one.

Get the details off the rings or we cant help you. Moving this out of sexing budgies

Oh No !!!! Jasper had far too short a life. I am so sorry

Is she is a seperate breeding cage with her babies and her partner ? One and half weeks is too soon for her to be taken away from her babies.

You mean you have taken her away from her babies ? Why ?

Where do you have your breeding cage ?

Get a hold of some Calcivet and put it in their water for around 2-3 days per week during breeding .

Looks like it, but as opaline affects mostly wing markings, asking if she is requires a photo of her back of her wings

Did you check her vent area when you found her dead ? Did she have any swelling there..........a hardish one would indicate an egg stuck. A slightly softer one would be a soft shelled eggs she couldnt pass. A soft spongey feel would indicate she was an internal egg layer ( another possibility due to the amount of time she spent in the nestbox ). Did she have a poopy bottom ? Was she thin? How long have you had the nestbox in the aviary ? How many clutches or eggs in a row have been laid ? How old is your hen ? Any calcium supplements given to the birds ? ( and I dont mean cuttlebone )

Here is the floorplans of our house and one showing the house on the block

Put him back Remove her.

Sounds like your hen was eggbound. If eggbound and no urgent treatment they die.

Mine are 60cms wide ( 24 inches ) by 40cms deep and high ( 16inches deep, 16 inches high )
