Me... I'm a little bit different. After quarantine, I usually put them in their cage in my bird room, which adjoins the aviary for a day and night, then I put them in their cage IN the aviary and let them come and go as they please. With most of my birds, they are out like a shot and never go back. With Tweet Tweet (who we found in the backyard), he continued to go back and forth and actually sleep in the cage for a few nights before feeling comfortable in the aviary. I have found that this works for me... but I agree with the others about putting them in in the morning and watching them closely. I hope it goes well.

Awww, I'm so sorry for your loss. You did your very best for the little guy... I guess it was just not meant to be... Biggest hugs xoxo. Your other bubs are looking great... good luck with them and keep the photos coming

Looks great Mb... a job well done

I have a beardy... he is the sweetest guy. Water dragons do NOT make good pets. They are generally not very friendly. My beardy 'Albert' is happy to run around my unit or nap on my shoulder. I would never let a Water Dragon do either... especially sit that close to my head!!!

Oh mate... I'm so sorry. Biggest Hugs xo

Yes... yes you are!!! Well done.

Tsk, Tsk, Tsk... SHUT HER LEGS!!!

:bliss: I'm hearing you!!! Should give you a head start anyway... lol

thanks although you should thank maesie she put them in thewright spot . thanks mate :bliss: Nope mate... you did that whole post yourself... I didn't edit any of the photos... just a typo!!! You are a fast learner and should be proud of yourself!!!

I also house two in a cage pretty much the same as yours and they have plenty of room (except when they want to sit on the exact same centremeter of perch haha... Claude's travel cage is brilliant!!! Great work. :bliss:

Awww Very cute bubs! And congrats on your posts and photos! You have come so far already. I'm so VERY proud of you!!!!

thankyou. i needed help. i dont feel as alone. leanne No worries mate... we are all for each other. Budgies are very sneaky at hiding their illness... because if they were in the wild ans showed signs of being sick, their flock would leave them behind as they would be killed by pray. So... try not to beat yourself up about it... You've seen it now and are doing something about it. The warmth should make him feel better. You'll need to shine it down one end of the cage so he can choose to sit under it or not. I'd also leave it on all night if possible. He needs the warmth. Also... do he like Millet??? If so you could try hanging a piece of it near his perch if he has the energy to eat it. Good luck with him... hugs xo

Poor girl... I'm not sure what that is. It doesn't look great, and if it has been getting bigger, as you said, I'd be getting her to an Avian vet. You have to be really careful with things around the eyes... Good Luck and please keep us updated.

WOW!!! Thanks for sharing. They are all stunning :rofl:

HEN????? Isn't the Cere BLUE????

Brilliant!!! They probably feel more at home too, with all that room. It's a big change from an aviary to a cage... regardless of size :reading:

Great work!!! They'll be loving their extra room I'd say :reading:

Great setup!!! I'm sure he is going to LOVE it :reading: Very well researched... Good stuff mate.

Really??? :reading: I'll have to see if I get one for xmas first... I don't know how has me or what they have bought yet... Mwa xoxo

Sandy is cute as! He looks like Albert was a few years ago... he is now the length of my arm :reading: . Good luck with him/her and I hope it all goes well.

Congratulations KAZ on your winning entry!

No worries... Your bubs are looking fantastic by the way!

You put the igloo in the bottom of the current breeding cage with her Mum and Dad... the baby should stay in there at let Mum go another round

Thanks Kaz... I will add them to my 'Kris Kringle's' list for my Christmas ideas.

I'd do that too... IF you want a second clutch. If you don't, I'd remove Mum to a cage to let her rest and let Dad finish raising her... Totally your choice. If she's up to another one and if YOU want her to have another one.
