    What is Melcan? do you have pictures of what your averies look like?What is your breeding room set up like?My Aviaries and breeding rooms are vary basic nothing flash but they do the job, I would love bigger and better but unles I get my own house it is never going to happen, I am really lucky for what I have.
  2. I have learnt may things on here to many to mention and I have also learnt that I am not the only **** person on here as I think we are all. AND best of all I think, NO I am sure I have made lots of new friends on this forum. :hi:

    Wow Pieds, THat's all I want at the moment, I have always wanted to breed pieds but can't get any good ones and when I do disaster always strikes, like the hen biting off my 51/2 week cobalt pieds beak, She tore the whole thing off, it was horriable, so that was the end of my pieds again.
  9. which I had an Aunt with an aviary that big and gave it too me I would in in heaven

    Looks like everyone going for a holiday to WA, must be the birdie place at the moment I will be there soon ( I hope) You know my problem Kaz Any way now I know you can transport so many birds at a low cost might move over there permanently yet , especially if things don't improve here. 2 boxes of my best would do it, don't ya think. 40 birds, new blood in the area, Might be fun

    Thanks Kaz will do, when I get around to it, I want to go now to see my son's and Grandkids but at the same time I don't want to leave here, I am torn. I have Henry George Bloodline here too. Liv can you take a couple of pics of the travel box so I can see what it looks like because you bought home a lot of birds it must be roomy.I was guessing it might be a double cage type box as I have seen one once. Lovely birds Liv you should some real nice young out of them, you seem to have a lot of cock birds though. :reading:
  19. I put half of a lemon and a orange in the flights each week, the birds tend to pick at it and that helps with mega
  20. That is true, if you have a bird with loose wings put it with a bird with nice tight wings and it will improve the wing carrage. But if you have a bird that has long wings which is a bad fault you should cull that bird.

    Welcome Darc Man
  22. Hi there, I pay between $15 and $25 a bird, We have bought one for $50 and he is a real nice Bird but didn't through anything because he was a different line. I sold him for $15 dollars I mainly buy from the one breeder but if I do buy from others I make sure the birds have the same blood line going unless I want to out cross or start a new line up which I have a couple going. The way I look at it if you pay big money for a bird it could die tomorrow you never know. If I had the money I would maybe pay a bit more for something that will improve my stud.

    okay that means I better start saving, Hey Kaz what's Gary Armstrongs cull price and who else is over there Gee the idea of some new birds might get me there faster BUT I am fussy Is there any nice pied.

    Yeh will get there soon, my boys have been nagging me, they are paying for my air flight so I really have no excuse. It's just getting around to it, Yes I would love to meet you all when I come it would be great. So Libby is that 10kg of box weight and birds meaning the budgies aren't very heavy so You could fit quite a few in. And is it a special box or do I use my own?
