Neat

Sorry it too a while to get back to you I am sick at the moment But yeah once I seen the pics of her iris rings, I knew she wasn't recessive But yep agree Dom pied for sure ... Daz - I have 2 at the moment that members have classed my Dom pieds as rec, due to the orange beak too but they have iris rings as well - :hap: Werid though as I have read that the orange beak is a sure sign of recessive pied ....

How is FB going? I hear that He is eating all own his own now

Yeah that is the same thing I get too mixed opnions :hap: so how are those fluffy bundles of joy going?????

YAY for baby No2 I had a full clutch of 6 2 were born the rest were all due to hatch and she got scared of her nest too they were all stone cold

I was thinking .... If they fly can they have their wings clipped too ? If so Then they can go in a long cardboard box until Quarantining is finished. Otherwise I will have to get another flight cage Av. Line the base with cardboard box that way the wire isn't hurting their feet ... And I am sure the little things can wait 30 days to get sand :hap:

How are they going now Sunnie? I had a brain wave you can cut a takeaway food contained in 1/2 lenght ways it will fit into the door then :hap:

It is covered ??? Uncover it a little ( so )and place a light/ lamp near the cage so if she does get more frights then she can find find her way back to sit on the eggs, other wise they will chill and become DIS ....

ooooo Look forward to pics :hap:

Lettuce is good for dehydrated birds :hap: Pearce I can feel your worry and concern in your words. And i know what you are going through it is soo much easier when we colony breed compared to close breeding isn't it .... 4 weeks is a while to be in there without any signs of breeding behavior. Are they in breeding condition? How are their Health? Check the nest boxes for signs of any bugs in there? You could try adding wheat germ to their food also, Cod Liver oil, and wheat grass as these are great for fertility Cover the holes up like Liv suggested use a thin pit of paper or cardboard and put a slight hole in there, If the hens are ready they will Nor their way through the hole? Or when you uncover the hole they will go in ... You could also try removing the cocks for a few days and put them back in ... Are they are bonded to each other or have you separated the pairs, If you have separated pairs that were once bonded this could cause a problem too as they will hear each others calls and not go down to breed with other pairs .... Also check your perches that they are stable and thick enough to grip onto ....

Awww :hap: they turned out BEAUTIFUL ...... How are you breeding them ? In a Cage, Cabinet? I ask this because you said that you couldn't find the 3rd baby? Have you got a grate in the bottom of the cage? if so it may have fallen there ?? BUT they are pretty,

okay, So, Um yeah, I HAVE NO IDEA ... A budgie with nightmares :hap: Is she awake? Are your sure that there is nothing that could be giving her night frights .... Car head lights, a Moth I am no good at this department :hap: So if you kindly proceed to level 2 I am sure that there will be a member along shortly that could be able to answer your questions As for her feeling the chicks in the shell , I am not sure on this .... egg shells are porous and well I felt my kids move and kick me

They are the ones that have blood in them ... The old ones are white ....

I went and priced the Mice and snake mesh at Bunnings and have looked at other places and it is the same brand ( has the blue paper on it ) But I haven't been able to find one that isn't thin .....
