That's great

I would say you could make 2. The recommended measurements for a breeding cage are 600 long x 450 high by 350 depth (measurements in metric millimeters)

Canada color cycles are the same as ours. http://www.islandnet.com/~aacc/rings.htm

I have a hen that laid just the one egg 6 days ago, she has got poo all over it and it doesn't appear to be fertile. They have been mating daily for about 2 weeks. She is not egg bound, there is no egg bum and not even the big poos before the eggs are laid, she justs seemed to have stopped at the one egg? Do I take the egg out or leave and see what happens?

A Russian woman married a Canadian gentleman and they lived happliy ever after in Toronto........ However, the poor lady was not very profecient in English, but did manage to communicate with her husband. The real problem arose whenever she had to shop for groceries. One day she went to the butcher and wanted to buy chicken legs. She didn't know how to put forward her request and in desperation, clucked like a chicken and lifted up her skirt to show her thighs. Her butcher got the message and gave her the chicken legs..... Next day she needed to get chicken breasts, again she didn't know how to say it and so she clucked like a chicken and unbuttoned her blouse to show the butcher her breasts. The butcher understood again and gave her some chicken breasts. On the 3rd day the poor lady needed to buy sausages. Unable to find a way to communicate this to the butcher she bought her husband to the store......... (Please scroll down) What were you thinking???? Hellooooooo, her husband speaks ENGLISH!! I don't know about you sometimes!

That is a beautiful poem Neat.

I have printed some off and will put them up around our little town. I'll start at the stock feed when I get seed later, I know there are a lot of people with budgies that go there because they are nearly always out of bulk seed bagged up.

Yay, my favourite color. It looks a good size Neat. Can't wait to see it finished.

They are just fabulous Kaz, you're doing an excellent job. Bet you can't wait for it to be all finished.

He is so gorgeous Zebra and he looks like Mum.

I have always put both in together at the start and had eggs 8-10 days after. Never had any trouble telling the parentage of the chicks.

Fingers crossed that it's all smooth sailing for you today

Sounds like you had a wonderful day

WOW this looks a very flashy city. My plans are still being drawn up... lol

Good luck, I hope everything goes well for you

I dream all the time of what sort of avairy I would build if I could Do you like bananas?

Hahaha, haven't you trained them to do that yet. :hap:

Hope everything gets done for you soon so you can bring that beauty home

All I ever wanted to be when I grew up was a Mum (not very career orientated...lol)

I have a hen who laid 2 clutches last year, first was mid year and she laid 6 eggs and smashed them after 8 days. I rested her until the end of the year and again she laid 4 eggs and sat for 10 days and smashed them again. I put her down with a proven cock at the end of June and she has laid 4 eggs this time but she doesn't move/roll them around the nest box she has just sat on them - they are all clear. Do I give up on her or keep trying? She is an early 06 hen.

This was our beautiful red husky - Sasha. Sadly she is no longer with us She is still missed everyday.

Wow, it's looking very nice Kaz. Great job

Great photos. Love the one that got caught picking her nose

I would say a poorly marked lacewing. She doesn't look like my albinos.

You are not having a good trot lately AV. Good on you for doing all you can for those poor little budgies.
