I have a normal grey male & an opaline sky blue hen with eggs. babies colour??? Also Violet male & normal grren hen with eggs. babies colour???? thanks for any help

Hi Sean try the australian National Budgerigar council in google. you can get your rings from them

Hi everyone,Thought I would let you know, none of my lutino's eggs hatched after the 4th one died,She has started to lay again and I have another hen down at the same time , so I may mix and match. Hope to get 1 or 2 this time. Also my opaline is due for her eggs to hatch maybe tomorrow or the next.I think I might go back to breeding one on one rather than the aviary.

Hi KAZ is the half sider yours it's beatifull.

Never heard of it being hereditary,Sailorwolfs suggestion is good I used to use cord(not string) just above the claws eaither way never leave more than 4 days.

Beautifull birds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And here is my newest addition!!!!!!!!!!!!! 4 months old.

Hi everyone, Bad news the baby didn't make it through the night, no food in it's crop. I had a funny feeling that this would happen, 1 last egg to go, here's hoping. I think I will let her have one more round after this and see how she goe's .

HI everyone,I went to my lutino's nest box just now and found my first baby after the other 5 eggs not hatching 1 more egg to hopefully hatch.cock bird is a normal green.Hope to send some photo's at a later date. :dbb1:

I think this is wrong if so I still need help

lovely birds!!!!!!

Hi Norm the cord is about 12' away the photo belies that. Ta anyway.stuart

Great photo's, nice birds. stuart.

Mum to six eggs!! http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb247/s...es/budgies3.jpg

HI everyone here's some pics of a few of my birds.

Hi Sailorwolf, just for future reference you can try taking the bird in your hand,you should be able to feel the egg, applying slight pressure from just above sometimes will easily dislodge it, or you can applya little olive oil brushed on the vent or carefully insert into the opening will help. Sorry this is a bit late hope all goe's well

WOW!! these chin up's are killing me, Me too, Just watching is making me tired.

So sorry to hear the bad news.

Thanks splat, and yes I do have other hens in there but they dont seem to bother the lutino.Allthough I do have an opaline that has 2 eggs and a little green hen does try to get in her box I actually caught her in the box yesterday,but the opaline seems to be okay,mind you if she gets within striking distance of the green well!!!!!!. I will keep you posted the first egg is due to hatch on thursday but im allowing to sat

Does anyone have any idea's? I have a lutino hen with 6 eggs she does'nt seem to be sitting on her eggs a great deal of the time during the day,Yet she stays in her box during the night.The nest boxes are in the aviary, I have never bred budgies in an aviary before I used to only breed in seperate cages selectively.

Hi Cindy i sent you an email hope it works
