  1. They are all very cute Daz... And just a confirmation... DEC isn't sex linked is it?
  2. JimmyBanks replied to a post in a topic in Aviaries
    That's what I love about this place... I swear I've bookmarked every aviary I've seen on this site and am sitting down with them all and going, okay I want thins this this this and this... unfortunately it means I have to move 2 hours out of Melbourne to find the land to build it all but still I like to dream... Throwback... was it you that mentioned the complete book of budgerigars by Stan and Barbara Moizer they have a great auto watering system in that book... alot of work though
  3. this was a really good thread idea neat.. it also seems to be getting lots of pictures which I love... Throwback and lone budgie... what made you choose the types of breeding boxes that you did? (inside/outside the cage)...
  4. they look wonderful Norm.
  5. I thought it must of been the cock or chicks doing it... Do many hens do this or is it a relatively uncommon thing for hens to do? I've not seen any other members photos where they've done it...
  6. I like it too dave. And all the pictures are great. To be honest I couldn't tell which one was the lighter ones on the other photo's but it really showed up on this last lot. Hope he makes it. Pale ale sounds like a great name for a mutation
  7. awww... sure she wasn't licking the sugar off your lips from all those donuts?? you sure she was definately kissing you
  8. Yes, My wife is from Samoa and they don't have many brids there at all, except those evil indian minor birds that came over on a boat and took the place over. But when you think about the vast colours our birds have here in Australia we are a pretty lucky bunch of people. And better yet we get to keep them at our house and admire them every day... I really have to go shopping today
  9. thats great news kaz. look forward to hearing about future progress.... and seeing lots of photo's...
  10. http://www.tradingpost.com.au/iteminfo/adn...ds+%26+Pergolas_ this person is giving away an aviary... not just any aviary... 200 square metres.... wouldn't it be nice to have a back yard that size to fit it in... :(Laughing out loud): Imagine all the budgies...
  11. I'm going to go with the same as before...
  12. Well hopefully he'll be okay... I'm sure if he does decide its time that he'll go out like a king. you take great care of all your animals its sad to see you lose one... but hears hoping that this was just a scare..
  13. Phew I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought pied and normal... See Erin... in less than a month you can actually look at a budgie and tell the difference... Now that is what makes this forum fantastic.... *waits for an expect to come and tell him he doesn't know what he's talking about* until then though I agree with birdluv...
  14. Love the feeders too... And your birds are as cute as ever.
  15. Well firstly Erin.... WELCOME!!! I am so glad you made your fist post, ey. What a lovely pair of budgies you have... You asked for experts to give you an answer... so I won't respond... have you ever hear of the terms 'pied' and 'normal' though? It would help as far as gender recognition is concerned with a closer shot of Kazoo's cere/head. I look forward to what the experts have to say.
  16. JimmyBanks replied to Missy's topic in Budgie Talk
    ewww. yucky... they must be exterminated... at all costs... death to all cockroaches... Good luck with that... I hate them too.
  17. Kaz just when I think budgies can get no cuter you make another post with pics. they are so cute.
  18. JimmyBanks replied to Derek's topic in New to BBC
    Sorry I'm a bit slow on the update, just finished driving back home from sydney... 8 .5 hours in the car driving non stop (except for fuel) and what is the first thing I did??? Got online... welcome to the most addictive website on the net... I like you have no budgies at the moment... been at the forum less than a month and just figuring out what I want and all that sort of hoopla... Daz's place is fantastic, you have to check out his site when it gets up... Its Budgie Utopia up there. Well, enjoy yourself, and don't be a stranger, everyone hear loves a good chat and a laugh. See ya round
  19. Very cute pictures Gotta love Coco. As for gender... I'll go with the majority...
  20. A hen that doesn't want to know and a cock that is over zealous can lead to the cock literally being hen picked to death, too! In light of this information... ignore my post
  21. all I can say is.... AWWWW !!! They are cute as!
  22. Great to hear all the news at your place dave. Can't wait to see those pics that might be coming
  23. Is TT hurting Crackle? If she's saying not tonight honey and she's not getting hurt then the possibilities of a clutch is pretty slim isn't it?
