Oh, that's wonderful to hear.. Merlin will be flying like a pro soon enough.. I noticed that Goofy's getting some of his clipped primary flights back.. two on each side.. :fear

You've got a lovely bunch of darlings. :fear Here are my stab at colour and mutations... please bare with me, I'm still learning myself.. :fear The first three are harder to tell the body colour as the lighting isn't good. Mango - Lutino (could be creamino, hard to tell with lighting, but would say more of a lutino) Loki - Recessive Pied (possibly olive green? or is that grey green? or possibly goldenface) Spangle - Dominant Pied (possibly cobalt or mauve) Merlin - Normal Cobalt blue Kiwi - Light green spangle Dixie - Normal Mauve I'm not sure about offsprings outcome.. still getting my brain around that one. Is Kiwi a boy? From the look of it's cere, looks like a girl, but it could just be the photo and the angle of it. hard to tell.

(Laughing out loud), they are so cute. They sure look like they love those bells!!

I'm so sorry that you have to go through this again with poor little Buster.. Can I please ask what are the symptoms? When was the last time Buster was sick?? The reason why I ask this is because a friend of mine had a lovebird who was very sick on and off for a three months period. Towards the end of the three months he was having seizures. She took him to three avian vet before finally realising what was wrong. The first two avian vets thought it was either infections or megabacteria, but it turned out to be metal poisoning. The lovie somehow manage to get a hold of a piece of metal bits and swallowed it. Unfortunately the diagnosis came too late, and the little one didn't make it. Oh, I'm just mentioning it as a possibility that's all. Not saying that that's what they have. I hope they get better soon.

Hi Hi Welcome. I'm also getting my heads around genetics. There are some experts around... so you'll probably get some answers foryour questions regarding genetics. Here are my guesses.. though I can't really see the wings which make it a bit harder to tell. here goes.. First baby...clearwing Opaline cobalt (may be dilute) second baby... Clearwing Opaline spangle cobalt Third baby... Opaline Spangle cobalt Oh they are all gorgeous!!! I wanna give them all a big big cuddle!!! hehe

(Laughing out loud).. just look at those two boys!! I bet they had lots of fun in the water. great pics.

I can't access it either.. sorry Shawna..

You know, he would post it if it isn't for the postage cost to send the parcel. It'll cost roughly $80 to send to anywhere in the US... so that's awhole lot of money for a postage!

(Laughing out loud), yeah another one will probably come home after I get back in September from my one month holidays. I do trust Karen's flock, but I still go ahead with the quarantine process, but because my housesitter and animal sitter aren't familiar with the whole birds scene I didn't want to overwhelme her too much while she's here. so opted to wait out until the holidays when we get back for another baby if my hubby lets me.. hehe.. There's already some that tug at my heart string, but my eyes are still set on Buddha, but I know I could never have him.. hehe.

(Laughing out loud), Love the comments that went with the pics. I especially love the beer belly picture too!! Classic!! hehe. You've got a very beautiful and 'not' (the beer guts and the big bum... hehehehe) so elegance princess... She's gorgeous.

Hey all some of you may already read that my hubby Daniel build playgym for birdies to sell. He's currently working on one model and here's a picture of it. If you are interested in buying one or asking about one, please feel free to pm me and I'll let you know the price.. oh, my hubby would appreciate any sort of comments. Positive or negative.. well we call it constructive critisms anyway.. hhehe.. Just for you information... the dimension of it is.... Base 45cm x 60cm with the height of 95cm. Anyway cheers I hope you like.

Hi everyone. I thought I'd share my wedding photos seeing that Riebie is the only one so far.. I hope you like. Cheers And this one is my favourite.

Oh Lovey, You have no idea how hard it is to not keep bringing home all Karen's 'rejects'!! :fear I have three so far, though one of them isnt a 'reject', just turned out to be a boy.. (Laughing out loud)

Karen are you serious?!?!? 114?? you must be pulling legs there Kaz.... you gotta be!!! Didn't you tell me 14 as well?!?!?! You gotta be teasing... hehe

Awww, look at that Pretty boy.. :ausb: just gorgeous standing in the light singing away.. Oh I didn't realise how big that spot is on Merlin... what a cutie pie he is.

Here's the lastest from Karen..... The latest photos of Kaya and Sonny's babies taken today Tuesday July 25th Baby no 1 (light green opaline cinnamon spangle ??) female named Keesha Baby no 2 (YF2 spangle ???) Baby no 3 (maybe blue spangle ???) Baby no 4 (possibly like baby no 1)

I'm not sure about the flowering sweet peas but the normal sugar snap peas would be alright. I should look into the flowering sweet peas. I would imagine it would be okay. but I should look anyway.

Buddy looks cute. :ausb: with the 'purple halo'... It looks like you took the picture facing the mirror and with flash? those are the reflection of the flash, or otherwise it's the sunlight filtering through reflecting off the mirror.

That's really interesting.. they kinda sort of remind me of a badly marked opaline or something along that line, except with the spangle tails. :ausb: There are pics of before and after.. the 'barheads' are the young chicks before they started moulting.

Lovey, I understand what you mean by the head colouring as well, but check out what Bao's head used to look like before she was lost to the world. She was an Opaline.

Ya know Daz, as much as I think you're right with the non opaline, I am still going to say that he is an opaline spangle!! No camera can give that blue to a bird unless it was there to start off with!! It's just not possible to turn black into blue just like the body colour flash or not flash.. How about a picture of him without the flash?!?! I'll be d***** if this guy isn't an opaline!!!

Awww, what cute pics!!! I do have to agree with Kirby. Boris has the coolest expression on for the camera!!

cutie pies!!! I'm going to say that Kaya's eldest isn't an Opaline. There's no green on her wings, too yellow. the last baby picture is looking like a spangle as well, not opaline

it's funny isn't it when they go batty over their toys. they defintely have characters in their little tiny bodies!!

hehe yeah I guess so. they seems to have the 'male's traits' as well, so guess we did good that first time around!!
