Budgie Rings
Hi , if you have a bird society in your area you can purchase number rings and split ring through them, but as for club rings you need to be a member of a club to buy them, I have seen budgie rings on ebay so have a look there.

What Should I Put In My Avairy With Budgies?
So that is nearly 7 feet by 7 feet take of an inch each way, If you really wany to put other birds in there why don't you put a divider down the middle, so then you would have 2 aviaries 3 1/2 feet by 7 foot long take away that inch I personally just like the budgies on their own but everyone is different. Cockatiels can go with budgies.

Spangle Sky Blue Cinnamon Hen X Spangle Sky Blue/cinnamon
nar im not worried about showing yet **** i only been breeding since sep last year show birds and this only my third round of pairs have you ever looked at the possibility your birds are getting tail rot in nest ?? as no tail isnt always from good feather and not a sign of good bird in my eye also it its hard to get out of stock if it is from feather i dont keep tail less birds unless caused by other reason than apparent feather quality (personally i believe its just a mild case of fm nothing to do with good feather id say its bad if they dropping out not good } but can be caused by feather rot which is different birds born with tail then it drops after first molt never regrows it tries but after growing about two or three centimeters feathers all soft and black at end and pulls out with black rotten end i dont remember what causes it or how to stop it Hey I have not heard of that but that sounds like an idea, so there could be a treatment. All my birds have tails when young just a few have lost them after their 1st moult and some when they have turned 18months and they are my best birds maybe it is tail rot.

My Improved Flight / Breeding Area B)
I love it Gb it looks great, when you attached the wood to the gable roof how did you go about it. Because you know how I am getting one the same size I am trying to work out how to attach my ceiling because there really is any frame work in those garden sheds. My shed will be 3x3 with wall height 210 and gable height 245 I think.

Spangle Sky Blue Cinnamon Hen X Spangle Sky Blue/cinnamon
They look really good GB, i like the first one the best so far but the other 2 are still feathering so hard to tell. You should have a little shot at showing as it helps you find out where you are at and plus if you leave it to long you will be up in the next level against me No serious you should mainly around your area like me and maybe the shields. Don't worry about those other breeders, you know sometimes us beginners can beat the pants off the Champion breedings. Enter for the fun of it, if you win anything great if you don't you will learn something. You have a chance as a beginner but the next level is much harder as the judges don't allow for beginner breeding so I am packing myself because I go up soon. Which is wanted I have wanted for a couple of years so the judges take me seriosly but now that it has happened I really want to stay in beginners . I'm a sook hey, it's only because I have had 2 rotten years of clear eggs. And anything good has no tail

Food For Chicks
You must be careful feeding soft food because it too sticky it can get stuck under the babies beak, and really if you soft feed you should check their upper beaks often too make sure no soft food has not caked up there. Deformed beak occurs if this happens.
