HAHA love it MB Hmm... what do I associate with none... HENS!!! it always seems I have none! hens

You can get it from many pet stores and your vet should house some also. It's excellent for hardening up poos and restoring ill birds back to health. I'd personally try to avoid getting him wet where possible if he's that ill and just pluck the affected vent feathers and keep him warm... Feet can be cleaned with warm water but wetting down his vent and feathers will chill him internally also.

You can cut, clean it or pluck it, whichever you feel is best. HAve you tried him on sulphadim?

Money hehehe :doh:

You're welcome The first hard part is recognising the mutations, then learning the trends in the outcomes comes into play once you can recognise them It's all a fun learning experience and you'll be forever learning new things The wonders of the budgie world I guess eh :doh:

Haha nice point MB :doh: It seems there's a trend in all of these snake movies Boa vs python, Anaconda and AnacondaS haha snakes on a plane... Or perhaps the trend is Reptile "scary" movies.... because I can vouch that Lake placid and lake placid II are cr*p. The second one more so than the first

lobe (hehe a tough one )

I personally feel it goes on type of fur. I have 4 Cats :what: One long haired part (Kaz think burman I thought ragdoll) Cat who's black and extra curly and fluffy *midnight*, we have her kitten who is now 3, but she's double coated and seal pointed with blue eyes *tipsy*, we have my grampy's inheritated cat who's a white long haired boy, who's not as fluffy as the black long haired girl *Vronsky* and last but not least my sisters Short haired black cat *delilah*... I'm allergic to the Midnight and Tipsy (which I beleive is based on fur type) and yet totally fine with Vronsky (different fur to her) and Delilah. Double coated cats and frizzy curly long haired cats set me off the worst, but fine haired cats not at all most times Congrats on your new kitty, he's gorgeous!

You seem very interested in the genetics of birds I'll give you a link to a site which is like my "learning bible" on outcomes from pairings http://home.gil.com.au/~dwellsadsl/prbsinc/index.htm Click on pairings then look up the ones you wish to learn In time you'll get used to it and be able to work out multiple genes combined in pairings and outcomes :what: Hope it helps.

Very very very Lame movie!!!

Unbelievable... she is soooo pretty! Can I ask how you get that mutation? What were her parents? I have a Sky Blue YF2 Greywing split to recessive cock paired in a breeding cage right now with a Grey Opaline hen... is there anyway I could get a chick like this out of them??? Or are the sex linked mutation not with the right bird to achieve it? If you have a Yf2 sky greywing to a grey opaline hen you can't get greywing in there unless the hen is split to it and opaline won't show unless the cock is split to it. You'll get 50% yf normals and 50% normals unless they both carry any of those genes hidden (recessive, greywing or opaline)

I LOVE THIS SONG and LOVE THIS AD! Got to love the break down on the drums with the wicked beat, best part of it! PLus the Gorilla is adorable... I love Gorilla's, watch Gorilla's in the mist just the other day actually :happy-dancing: Ever so sad that movie

Paradise is a yf2 sky opaline greywing

It's not opaline and the down is not a clear white to be opaline so it's a green dom pied... I can't tell sex yet, those photo's and it's age aren't revealing enough traits yet I'd say give it another week then take another photo and ask again.

I'm not convinced yet... It's a young bird only just going through it's moult by the look of it, the Dom pied and spangle are definate but I'm not sure on yf... It's face and body has a strong yellow and it's body should have more blue and not so green for a first moulter... They usually come out blue with yellow... I'm yet to see a yf who comes out dark green. I think it's a green who carries Yf but isn't yf itself.

Great result! Well done splat~! She's a cutiepie!

Church Hehe (Sundae as in Sunday)

Haha I'm set in stone, yf grey spangle

by the cheek patches and the yellow (barely greeny) on his belly i'd say grey :laughter: Although his rump is quite green but that can be normal

Keep dreaming Elly I live soo much closer it'd be much less work for me to take it off her hands :laughter:

Yf grey spangle? LOL

Haha love it! Nice one, thanks for sharing it :thumbs_up:

Nice looking pairs girls Congrats on going into breeding together, although I think some of the genetics are a little off :thumbs_up: Hens can't be split ino and Grey greens can't be split dark green :happy-dancing:

I knew you'd been gone a little too long for it to be a "normal absence period" Hope all works out for you soon and we have you back on full time again :thumbs_up:
