  1. :D RIP. Yes... okay... I agree with you 100%
  2. The male Lutino has a blue cere?
  3. I'm no expert when it comes to genetics, as my quiz results show but from what I've read it can result in smaller offspring. Not what show breeders want...
  4. they have red eyes with white tips on the tip of there wing sorry about before i was over reacting sorry Dunno what your sorry for but theres no need to be sorry I didn't get offended by anything you said. now I'm trying to figure out what I was meant to get upset with... okay so they are both Lutino's... That being the case, I wouldn't breed lutino x lutino, unless they are a top notch pair, I'd be pairing them up to some Grey Greens like LittleBudgie2005 said in order to increase size and other features... Hope this helps.
  5. When you say the cock bird is always getting picked on, can you describe what takes place. Does he get injured or bleed?
  6. do they have black eyes or red eyes? Are they completely Yellow or do they have Black/Cinamon Markings?
  7. It all depends on their genetics... When you say Yellow Birds, are they Lutino's or DF Spangles? What were their parents?
  8. Hi

    JimmyBanks replied to a post in a topic in New to BBC
    Not all is as it seems.... Glad you're finding the site helpful... Looks can be very deceiving... :hap: :hap: :hap: No really we are all great!
  9. If I could spell hideous I would say that's how I went... YOU'RE KIDDING ME!?!?!?! okay Hideous(sp?) is the understatement of the year... For the "True or False" I gave my answer then responded in contradiction to my response!!! What a moron!! I got the sex-linked, got the 3 Dominant and 3 Recesive... I'm stupid. I think I got 3! Shoot me now!!!
  10. I wouldn't worry about her at this stage, some birds lay large clutches... How many times have you bred with her? Have you always used the same male? I doubt all the eggs will be good as I think she would find it hard to keep them all warm, if you had another pair breeding you could foster out those eggs... Hope it all goes well, keep us posted.
  11. If you can't have pets inside I wouldn't bother taking it out of the aviary... unless its the bird that is sick and then I would be taking it out and putting it in a seperate cage away from the others...
  12. Can you keep him in the garage in a cage with a lamp for warmth...
  13. nice... I am looking at upgrading... I've got a VX Commodore at the moment... just finding I'm starting to spend more on services and want to jump ship before I really have to fork out some money... Wife wants a Ford Territory or a Toyota Tarago... I want a KIA Grand Carnival... Just not looking forward to the increase in petrol bills...
  14. What was the name of the wire??
  15. looking forward to seeing the updates
  16. Yay!!! I go something right!!!
  17. seperate immediately... if you have another hen sitting on eggs I would foster the egg out... no matter what though you need to put the hen into isolation...
  18. what was the title of the article??
  19. Its fantastic to see young kids getting into breeding budgies with the support of their parents. There will be sad times and there will be happy times, just keep on encouraging her to continue on. Nothing wrong with selling them herself to get a little bit of the money back that she has spent on feeding them, Lets face it she's going to get more money selling them herself then if she sells to a pet shop.
  20. :bow: The circus was to boring!! I was a clown once... wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy... But yes I am a legend! :hap: A Mr. Ali once stole a quote of mine, it went something like... "I AM THE GREATEST!" :glare:
  21. Heres what you don't want to do: Sell any babies or parents... They may come in very handy...
  22. Well you've got RIP's attention So that must mean somethings up
  23. I would be very interested to find out how you could force particular cocks and hens to pair up in a colony breeding set up... And whats a Stargazer, Faded, Dusk and a Polydactyl???
  24. Looking great. Love the pictures!!
  25. Sorry to hear that you've never heard back from them... thats sad... Maybe they ran out of money and couldn't publish it after all that. Hope you begin posting more
