what do you mine dave ??? Dave is asking for some photos of your babies in the nestboxes...the babies you are talking about. Do you have any photo's of the babies in the cage shannon?? I love looking at everyones pictures

I have a DSLR and I can't make it take pictures like that... even with a macro lens.... WOW!!!! I wish I was half as talented as you are!!

nice birds I thought the first one was Violet too and I thought clearbody for the second... Surprise surprise I might of been right for a change

very cute

they look great

Let us know how you go Just out of curiosity why dip the tails in warm water??

wow... thats not good... hope everyone comes out of it safe...

hmmm interesting, I will have to get it looked at... did they say what they thought it could be? I'll have to try and get in contact with MB...

At 5 months there is a good chance she might get egg bound... Can you replace the real eggs with fake eggs??

Welcome to the forum, glad you decided to make a post We love pictures too so feel free to post some up for us

Yeah MB's got it at the moment... she put it down with a cock (because most people thought it was a hen) and nothing happened... She has now put it in with a hen... (because some think cock) and I don't think anything has happened either... lol. Maybe its a new monk/nun mutation....

What is it... I've been told male and female in the past so we'll see... plus Hey I miss him/her/it... and I just wanted to look at the pics

I believe it was a Cinnamon Yellow Face Grey and a Cobolt Normal...

I was reading one of Elly's posts and I instantly thought of this... It is believed that Socrates said this somewhere between 469 BC and 399 BC: "The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers."

Elly I have American friends I know what a fanny is... might want to change it to 'bum' for our Australian readers It was very funny though... :rofl:

:rofl:

:rofl: :hap:

Well I've changed it from a Grey Green Opaline to a Lutino and kept it as a hen but I haven't changed the breeder... (which is listed as Jimmy Traynor) but the rest of his birds were JT3-***... so I dunno... Maybe someone else will be able to help you out...

Thats great news shannon... I look forward to hearing about your new bird room...

I agree with KAZ... the only thing I buy from a pet shop, and thats if my stock feed place has ran out, are supplements for calcium...

when you say the last baby came out do you mean came out of the egg or came out as in fledged?

:hap: Hang in there mate, I took Taumei to Malaysia earlier this year and everyone thought I had adopted him from an Orphanage there His mother was not impressed. She is VERY proud of her Samoan heratige.

the problem is there were a few replacements... I have the catalogue but I didn't get all the updates... I was more concerned about the mutation and who the breeder was than what the ring code was...

haha I did think European when I saw him... but hey most people think that I'm some ethnic bloke... they seem disapointed when I tell them I'm 5th generation Aussie... (thats if the family tree is right) lol.

That's bad... why do they do that? It just makes new people to the 'fancy' skeptical...
