I'll go check out the standard too... this is something I have been very interested in... I wonder if any colour is actually dominant?? Maybe cocks that are split for certain genes can be picked by foot colouration??? Wow... so much to find out :laughter:

even at 235 she has bred extremely well... looking forward to seeing them all grow up No doubt they'll look great. Maybe even a champion in there :laughter:

:laughter: That is great news!!!

She's a cutie :laughter: Hope she gets rid of the pooey bum soon.

very cute. :laughter: I'm no good at genetics though so I can't help you with the outcomes...

Great news Chrissy!

I am away for a day and these pictures get put up... All your birds look great but I love lacewings so they my fav. :laughter:

The upgrade is worth reading twice...

I see where you are coming from renee. I am sure that there are more breeders out there that don't know alot and just enjoy breeding. They are none the wiser. I don't think they can be blamed but I do think that if they come here looking we should nicely, politely, and civily inform them of other ways. But like you say they are under no obligation to change just cos most people here tell them something...

3 eggs, that's fantastic! I can't remember when you will see something in the egg while candling... Is the hen sitting yet?

He is great! Looking forward to him ending up in Melbourne. due to a mistake on the box

My Pran used to tell me something... Good things come to those who wait...

Very cute Chrissy!

And we wouldn't of got to hear your egg bound hen story if you left!! Glad you're staying!

I think mayo is a girl and I'm not sure what ketchup is.. I see a bit of blue on the cere but can't see enough to be certain... I'll wait for the others to say what they are before I make a complete fool of myself...

I understand people colony breeding (before I came here thats all I figured people did) but you've got to wonder what disease they might be hiding if the parents and the other chicks died. Chances are they have the disease to and if taken and placed into an avairy with other birds there is a chance they'll pass it on... Like Sunnie said if there are problem makers they should be removed. I guess thats the good thing about the site. It helps educate people that think they are doing the right thing but who are infact not.

He's a real cutie! I hope his feathers grow back fully.

which shop was that from?

I've actually read that way before so your not the only crazzzy one out there! It doesn't matter how you do it as long as it gets done and everyone is happy. Great job and thanks for sharing

haha I know Adam was quite a chatterbox on the forum back in the day... Now he's to busy in the office :hap:

Thats great! good job :hap:

Thats what I thought she was doing... reminded me of the male pigeons in the city...

I was just sitting here watching lip and len and I noticed that len was looking at lip and bobbing her head up and down then came close to Lip and did it again... I've been watching for 5 minutes now and she hasn't done it again, I was just wondering what she was doing...

You're game... I'd be petrified of doing the wrong thing if I tried hand rearing..

I thought I'd seen those budgies before Hope she is the friend that you were helping sign up. :fear It's a very small world.
