  1. I have had them like that, just leave her she will be alright, but if she is coming off he eggs to much for long periods I mean just keep an eye to see if she egg bound.
  2. yes they are the ones I was talking about
  3. 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.
  4. 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.

    Congrats well done
  8. Nice looking birds Patrick good luck with your latest pair
  9. So I think I get it, so you did not put any holes in the roof with screws right. You have explained it well GB it's just me
  10. Yes I am GB, I am so pleased that I have put them back together again. AND have 5 fertile eggs with a different hen but the same cock.
  11. Hi all, I just had to take some more photos of my babies. These are 3 of 6 babies from my violet cock and sky blue hen. This one a sky blue hen (I think she is a hen bites like one) is my favorite this cobalt cock is my second favorite A another cobalt cock
  12. no, no pics sorry and their wont be just what ever you see in my pics when i take pics of baby's my breeding area in the flight is not set up or started as yet im trying to measure what height three cages need it will fit around 12 breeding cabinets compatible with room for me to move splat here are pics all the studs in wall of shed the whole way round is like this Are these screws or pop rivits or nuts and bolts and are they going threw to the top of the roof like the walls? the roof where it joins see how its just on top and screwed flat I don't get what you mean (just on top and screwed flat, do you mean the wood is sitting against the roof then screwed. to look at you cant tell but if you see the skylight where it joins top of gabble you can see what i mean i had to do dodge job of filling small holes so birds cant get into the cavity just did a trimming and rolled wire hope you can get jist of what i did if not i think its time for a visit
  13. Hi all, after Gb mentioned tail rot, I thought i would do a search and I found this write up it is a good read and very interesting. I have posted the links for you to have a look. http://www.budgerigars.co.uk/diseases/feather.html http://www.budgerigars.co.uk/diseases/feather2.html
  14. Thanks GB that will be great
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. 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
  18. THEY LOOK HAPPY, CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEM MOULT OUT
  19. Gosh I can't even spell
  20. Ahhh I am not single but I think I might have a go at that questionaire later But there should be a question ARe you a romantic or not, I think that will help
  21. 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.
  22. My birds get wholegrain and multigrain bread and they defour it in now time
  23. Thanks Daryl yes that is what i am happy about as nearly early the babies I have breed this year have good brow, so I really can't wait to see ow they moult out
