Bicarb and vinigar can be mixed to create CO2 which will knock them out - but also make a huge mess What about getting a Canister of CO2 and attaching a hose and pumping it into the space???

Nice looking pairs :rofl:

What a little cutie :rofl: There is nothing wrong with posting on both forums

Yes, that sounds big enough to me

They are both hens. One is a spangle and the other is a dominant pied They look well cared for and pretty healthy. The yellow could be YF or it could be food or medication staining.

thats really cool thanks

WOW!! all these loose budgies Well done for catching them! There must be a careless budgie keeper near by

I am an old wife *changes mental note about egg eating and nutrition*

Sounds like a great idea.... i have pm'd you some info

It's the season to take holidays, and it is always stressful leaving our beloved budgies with carers while we are away. There are so many stories of people leaving their birds with a friend or relative and only to return to a sick birds I have developed a brochure that can be downloaded and printed for the carers to have on hand Download the BBC AWAY CARE.PDF file here ------> bbcawaycare.pdf

I have my fingers crossed for her - she is so pretty

I agree, there could be mice doing the eating. Otherwise there may be a nutritional deficiency in your birds diet.

Here you are JB ---> Finished!!

OMG what a mess they made!! What happens if you have stained budgies in a show?? :rofl: this one so needs to be called DEXTER or TIGER or HANNIBAL because he looks like he has just committed a mass murder !!!!

OMG :rofl: :rofl:

Here is a topic by another member who did something very similar ----> HERE

once they get the taste of egg, they love it!

In reality, if the parents dont start feeding it soon then there must be something wrong with the chick that the parents can see and we cant

They all have their different moods for the different times of the day. They have a real distinct play rest pattern. All my birds rest and play at the same times of the day... when they are resting they don't want to be handled and are cranky. When its play time they fly around sing and play with their toys etc.

how cute is that :question:

Great news :question:

3 chicks now. This chick hatched late yesterday and has a bit of yellow belly so fingers crossed it will be okay. it made the night okay and is looking stronger today, it hasn't been fed yet, but its still absorbing the excess yolk so should be okay 8 eggs to go. Am waiting for Lady to get her butt into her box so i can put some eggs under her. I couldn't bring myself to toss the eggs in the end :question:

you did a great thing, :question: Here is a forum that might help http://www.finchforum.com/

She is a stunner :question:

They sound good. I hope i can find some one like that out my way
