Their great arnt they!!I cant get enough...I listen to them most every day...And ohhh yeah...they are GREAT looking also...Love the grittyness of the songs.... :wine Specially good drinking and cleaning music.... I AGREEEEE!!! Next time they come to town i am at their show in a - I had tickets for when they were here 2 years ago, but I missed it becuase i went into labour with my dauther - I put it down to too much excitemtnt :hap: Hey, when are they going to release a new album!!!??? - its been ages since they released something new!

you might have to go out and buy one last box of Trill. I don't think 1-2 days will be enough to let his body get used to the new seed blend. I know its a pain as a box probably lasts Bing about 3 months lol

They are just growing up. Because there are two birds, they will tend to bond closer to each other rather than to you. If you want them to bond closely to you, then now is the time to separate them. Many people have 2 birds living in different rooms of their house for this exact reason Budgies do not keep a parent bond - it's a bit out of sight, out of mind with them If you keep them together, they will still be tame and lovely pets, but they will bond to each other and probably wont talk etc.

It is looking awesome!!! Very jealous!!

I'll put my money on the change of seed. when i changed off Trill seed to a different seed mix, all my birds got stressed and all went though a bad moult and it was not pretty They are all okay now thank goodness, but it was not nice too see. Have you got any Trill seed left??? Perhaps give it back to him and then slowly change the seed mix over 2 weeks or so. - I know I wish i had done that with my birds!

Mirrors are bad budgies get very frustrated when their mate (in the mirror) will not respond to their advances. It can lead to behavioral issues, which you are already experiencing with him. I would recommend that you stop his access to the mirrors and give him some new toys. perhaps change his cage around too, and cover him with a dark block out fabric for at least 12-14 hours a night until the behavior stops. When he is awake, spend lots of time giving him attention and talking to him. he will pine for his lost 'mate' at first, but he should then bond to you instead and become a lovely happy boy

Cheeky little diggers

They look lovely. the hen is VERY nice!! and i love the bright colous of the male. might be just my monitor, but it looks like the male has light staining above his nostrils??? if he does, he might have (or have had) and respiratory infection???

a photo will help lots.

The rational reason to become addicted to budgies, it to become irrationally obsessed with them

WOW!! That looks awesome!!!

My thoughts are with you Liv xxx

Oh, they look so cute I am so pleased you are making progress with them Thank you for the update.

Mine love Nickelback tooooooo (as do I :D ) I think their fast beat gets us all moving :hap:

Worms come (strangely enough lol) from soil. Most birds who don't have contact with soil will never get worms. People who have a paved, or soil aviary floors need to worm every 3 months to prevent worms. I have a paved aviary bottom so i use wormer every 12 weeks (or so) - the wormer i use is expensive but it also kills mites and any other bugs that feed on the birds body fluid

Not cremino MB, Lacewing. i actually think they are both hens

Very exciting!! I would be surprised if she lays again. I don't know if hens know fertile eggs or not - it would make sense that they would know, it is their babies after all :hap: ((((((Hugs))))))) for the weekend, and i hope the little bubs wait for you to get home

YAY!! Great news!!! So pleased it was only bumps and bruises

8 budgies and 1 box = $10 each Still a bargain lol!!!

Photo size is great - It can be almost twice the size if you like 640x480 is the maximum picture size

I agree, clearer pictures needed. Looks like a hen though. Is the cere brown????

bummer 5 budgies, 1 box = $10 each - bargain

give them a call - it's tollfree

have you called them???? My tiel would have been free if he was accompanied and that was from Adelaide!!! - I am very confused. I am completely sure you can send pets ANYWHERE in Australia The australian air express terminal is seperate from the (Adelaide) airport, which is the same for the other states too

The Air Express terminal is different to the airport. That is why the pets have to be checked in so early, at the AE airport terminal. not the actual airport. australian air express CALL 131213
