You poor thing ... But c'mon an indoor pool . How cool would that be :party0011: When Dylan & Talia do things like that ... Well when they have sandpits in the lounge room .. Or Talia needs to put make up on Dylan :party0011: .... They have to clean their messes up !!! .... 6 & 2 years old I think that they can do some stuff ... like when it comes to Them drawing with textas on the table my accident that is forgiven but Putting bubble bath in the fish tank isn't Kids eh LOL

Summer is almost here - The heat is out ....

Well Done for taking him in .... That cage is an awesome set up and her has free time ... "HATS OFF MATE" Great job ... What a spunk too i might add .....

Hey you can say me ... Cause I said it .... And well ... That is all I really have to say .. I am not sorry for it .. But I will not sit here and Be told - not to post! You have been given Advice from the "get go" and you clearly were going along with it ... But the urge to buy a new birds was to strong! - But it is good to see that your cats and dogs have a playful loving home with lots of room .... If you can't afford to HOUSE - FEED - CARE FOR PETS bet it 1 $5 bird or a $2,500 fish ... Don't have them ... The fact that you lock away your cats and dogs in a CAR away from your home, when the land lord is present ... leads be to believe what I first stated ...

Have you picked on yet ?

A solution ... Well done Elly !!!!!

Great advice given here mate ... I am going to add ... If she is moulting she will be like Us females with PMS So I am sure that if there are no improvements . don't be dampened by this ... After she as finished the moult ... I am sure that is when you will see the results of your dedication ... Enjoy mate

With quaratining It is easy mate .....You don't need to have them in a seperate building .... That is Bollocks .... If they are inside they need to be in at least another room ... This is because the outside has wind that blows and inside is confined ...There are a few things that can be spread by dust, and feathers along with POO .. Birds eat and peck at poo ....There are a few things that you can do mate ..... Just ask that is why were are here ......

Thank you for the enlightening information .... It is duly noted .. From a breeder prospective to put a bird into a cage with other bird / s ignoring quarantining is very detrimental to your flock... Yes birds are free in the wild ..... -there fore in order to create the most comfortable habitat were birds interact with humans as domestic pets these are the Guidelines that we adhere to and we find works ..... Quarantine is a Human ways of PROTECTING THE BIRD/ S - In nature a hole flock of bird can die from one disease. They have a chance of survival ..... In captivity the disease and illness which has the potential to wipe out a entire flock can be avoided ...... THE CAGE......Over the years of experience - From breeder to breeders from owner to owner the most comfortable cage are listed in the FAQ's ....This has been found out by trial and error .. It has nothing to do with SQUARE TREES! Happiness longevity in their life depends on what we do .,..... Your Round TREE TYPE CAGE - IS dangerous to your birds as the top of the dome is where their feet get caught and stuck ... Leading to mutilation or even death ..... As well as being to small for 1 let alone 2 birds there is no where for them to fly ... ... New people that come onto this forum ,,,and expect to be told that they are doing the right thing when we see that they are blatantly going back 40 years .. As in Bring up the " WILD BUDGIE" ... Pet / Show Birds will NOT SURVIVE IN THE WILD NOW!!!!!!! - Maybe a weeks or 2 at the MAX ...... The "Wild " Genes have been breed out of them , Their survival mechanism aren't the same .... If we sound blunt it is your naivety that has lead us to reply the way we have ... Our members have offered you support advice and even FREE cages .... Yet you have ignored all of them .... do the maths Now think to your self why are we saying this ... We are NOT here to degrade a new member ...we are not here to be asked for advice and then be KICKED in the teeth you are new listen ... If you don't kike the answer please do not ask the question ... feel free to talk & Enjoy the forum for what it is ...As so many have. It is a community of collected advise of experience and opinions of the BUDGIE /S ..... .... And you by you reading this shows that we have a common interest THE LOVE & WELFARE OF OUR BIRDS ... OTHER WISE YOU WOULD NOT CONTINUE TO READ THIS POST ..... Therefore ... We would love to have you here ... Please take our advice as it is in no way MEANT TO BE disrespectful or by any means does it take away your life YOUR CHOICES OR FREE WILL ... ... We don't spend everyday , every hour etc you can't own a bird that way.. They will own you .... the time I do is 30mins each day which covers all the 16 birds ...... Consisting of .... Food water, cleaning ..... Time changes with breeding season of course ... after all quarantining birds for mini 4 weeks isn't going to kill or harm anybody .... It .. Can save heartache that WE HAVE ALL ENDURED ...... in our EARLY YEARS ..... The birds can still enjoy companion ship of the other birds after quarantine .... WE don't expect you to spent $$$ on housing birds Hey I don't ...... But we will just let you know that in your particular cages it will not live the expected life span of 10 - 12 year it will decrease dramatically ..... is that fair to your Birds ..... But please prove me wrong .....

I don't know how you do it mate ... If that was me ... well I can't post what i would do Thanks I am very POSS A MISTIC with it :rofl:

Hey mate .... Wow I must be rough as guts with mine ... I just pick them up like i would a marble .... :rofl: If you wash your hands before you touch the chicks this will be fine mate ... ( WARM YOUR HANDS UP FIRST THOUGHT - if you are like me and have ice cold hands) Eyes are good ... How are the parents coping ??? Are you giving extra soft foods

Can you take it to an avian vet ? I have never seen this before ... It is fascinating and yet scary at the same time .... I wish you and her all the best mate

I am not here to tell members THAT THEY MUST DO WHAT I SAY .... That isn't me at all ..... I just wanted to show you and other members the importance of it ..... Hopefully you are lucky and that there isn't any underlining health problems - As each animal including us has it's own bacteria good and bad and sometimes it just doesn't "blend" with the other one bacteria .... That is why some people get cold sores - and others don't - Why some budgies get sick in a flock and other don't .... How big is the cage that they are in now ???? Learning Bad Habits and Feather plucking themselves is from a COMPLETE Neglect of the owner ... This is often seen in Birds that are left in the back yard with no interaction with humans or other birds

Yeah . He thinks that he is a lap dog :rofl: ... But at 40kgs .... He is not quite what I would call a lap dog

would it ... :rofl:

HELLLLLOOOOOOOO BBC ....... Since I am in a enlighten mood why not have a competition ... Something that hasn't been done before ... WHERE'S NEAT! This is how it goes ....
