Neat

Oh Av - I am sorry mate .. We had a tropical tank too and well When dave decided to add water to it it cracked and the next morning the floor was flooded and the fish were dead ... This happened in winter when the water of the tank temp was warmer the the outside temp We had our temp set at Ummm I can't remember now But i am sure it was more then 24c But I have issues keeping goldfish alive I hope it all improves for you

I think it is a rec male . Going by the colouringAlso maybe possible scaly face on their too ... Need Kaz to confirm or deny this

Hey all - I have been stewing on a few things lately and the main thing is how People "Quarantine" their NEW ADDITIONS Not just members on here but other breeders I've been too and talk too ( wouldn't call them that now Grrr ) IT IS NOT AS SIMPLE AS PUTTING A BIRD/S IN A SEPERATE CAGE FOR 30 DAYS If you don't want your flock to get sick or worse die, there is more to it... I personally follow the BUDGERIGAR QUARANTINE PROGRAM and have found it effective I haven't yet loss one bird or gotten and sick ones ... If you are a "Breeders" and not a "Egg Hatcher" you put the health of your budgies / birds first !! Before Eggs Below is what Kaz has written and pinned in the Health section and it is also located in the FAQ'S So I am posting this again so that New members and vistors can see the IMPORTANCE of QUARANTINING

A great Read Daz thanks ..

Norm is that the white edge??

Stow

With the greywing - one one wing is clipped?????I am sure it isn't a YF2No skyblue in that what so ever? look at the rump - Tail feathers and near his feet

Thanks Norm - I just don't want to have to give up my birds, I just got into the show side of things

Me either Jenene - I had lost my 2 dogs in October and i still think i can see them out the front and have my cry over them still - The love never goes away nor does the hurt but each day it get better - BIG HUGS TOO

This is a clean and cut case that the P & C haven't done their job right!!! I really hope that they see your ( OUR LOL ) side of things and change their mind

Hey Michelle, Looking at the end of the quill. I am 85% certain that it looks like french molt - As the end is flat and not a dome Shape like - I had a FM bird a few years back and the vet explained that to me when she did the examine on him - You say that his tails are messed up too - which is leading me to believe that it could very well be FM - But please what for the other more experienced members to comment

Norm how exciting .... I have no idea about this mutation I was trying to find more information on it a while back when you first showed us your dusks - But I still can't tell the difference with them ... I really hope that you find your answers when they grow into their feathers But you like the rare ones and recessive greys are they easy to come across you might be lucky to have on of those too Look forward to the pictures - Are you able to post pics of what they look like now

Heya. I AM FREAKING OUT .... I have been sick for a pretty long time now it's like it comes and goes. with no real beak at all - I have been so worried and scared if it is Psittacosis I am ringing the doctor today to hopefully get an appointment and see whats going on ... I don't think it is But i can not ignore the fact that I have birds - which none of them have show signs of Chlamydia at all But they could be carriers that i am unaware off i guess time will tell

You say She ... That will explain alot female budgies are alot like us females :sad:

I've heard of that and read it in some documents i have. But assumed :sad: that it was well more technical then that

I know others will be thinking it so i will ask it ... Really Kaz? I know i am the most gullible person in the world But you just never know

Thanks Kaz, I didn't want to say it :sad: But it does sound like it though

:hap: :hap: :hap: Oh Kaz

LOL I can see it now ... I will be thinking that Birds are laying eggs of perches .. Oh wait they would smash :sad: heheh Yep still blonde LOL

My opnion is to go with a breeder S/he will be able to tell you what Sex the bird is What mutation it is Who it's parents are ( so you will know if it is split and what too ) Also they are more friendly I find - They aren't after your money and won't tell you what you want to hear! But tell you what you NEED TO KNOW ..

KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK :sad:

OH NO ... Sorry to Hear that MB - I loved baby shopping ... I still have everything though even though I am NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER having a 3rd :sad:

Probably... and you said Jasmin twice! :hap: :sad: oppps hahahaha

Ooooo A BALL ..... WOW sounds like fun :sad:

WOW !!!!! okay Matt you are going to tell us who aren't you ???? for a young chick, I would love to see him grown up WOW
