Lip And Len
I dunno either, I will find out when I get around the breeding period of my life lol. I was looking at my Budgerigars in color book the other night but they don't have fallows in there... Libby showed me a picture of a Fallow hen and she looked very similar to Len but I dunno... I'm not really worried... he Len isn't a lacewing I will eventually get one...

Bush Budgies...
I haven't found a place yet that sells them... I have come across a place in amberwell but thats on the other site of town, I would have to go after work or something... If I did get them I would breed only bush budgie to bush budgie... I wouldn't want to mix the 2 types... but I am just a tad bit sinacle... I know of the group in the netherlands that are trying to breed only normal greens but they are still doing it with show or pet types... I am just wondering where these little bush budgies came from all of a sudden someone got the idea to go get them from the bush... hmmmm.. maybe... I have since been on the phone to the DSE (Department of Sustainability and Environment) and they have informed me that you cannot get a license to go and catch wild budgerigar and then breed from them... Not sure if its the same in other states but that is the Victorian DSE policy...

Bush Budgies...
are bush budgies really bush budgies or are they just a marketing ploy of some to get you to buy a small pet type budgie??? I wouldn't mind the idea of having some "bush budgies" if they are infact a normal, everyday, run of the mill, fair dinkum, budgie from the bush...

Red Belly Black Snakes
wow... ummm I'm no vet/ wildlife officer but I'd be saying yes it could eat a chihuahua X Doesn't the venom help to breakdown the animal thus allowing the snake to swallow it hole??? Just something I saw on discovery or national geographic... that and a snake with a guys head and neck in his mouth... if your the guy with the head in the snakes mouth are you allowed to shoot it then??? Some laws are crazy... I understand that some snakes are endangered... but preservation of a human life has to come into it somewhere... maybe you could by a pet rat and leave the lid off... and then catch the red bellied black snake and keep it as a pet???

Budgie Catching
