  1. Its frustrating when lots of problems occur beleive me. The chicks look very good and for your sake I hope the season improves.
  2. Maesie it is similar to yours except yours is really big. I've never seen them that big, nor with seed heads. Emma the leaves are slightly smaller but you could be correct thankyou.
  3. Hi all. Their is a weed that is growing everywhere in my backyard. It grows really straight so it would be an awesome perch. Here it is It grows really tall, but stays relatively thin. It does not get flowers or fruits as far as im aware. Thanks.
  4. My birds are in a shed so I do not know if thats classed as inside or out. Protected from rain and frost but not from heat or cold. They acclimatize to it I guess. On really cold nights use a towel or sheet and cover the cage, it does work. Stops any cold breezes from getting in. Their is no problem with a bird being outside, they get to see more and chat to other wildlife. Day light is a good idea and being inside he will not get any. He will however get artificial light.
  5. Thanks all. Kaz explained how it works and now I understand. Thanks again.
  6. Hi. I have a grey green cock paired with a grey green hen. do not know the dark factors of either or the parentage. So far, one chick looks grey/blue and the others look green. The bird on the left looks opaline? And thebird on the top right hand corner has blue tail feathers and grey wings. Mutations of the birds would be greatly appreciated.

  8. Aslong as you are not worming them or treating them for diseases. The birds will get the liquid from the vegetables and wont drink the meds.
  9. I give my birds hulled oats also. Not every day but 3 days or so a week is good.

  15. Talking budgies are awesome, I want one. Some of the sounds they make are amazing. Is the first bird speaking a foreign language?

    yeah most uk breeding rooms are timber. I've never seen a tin shed used as a breeding room in the uk. Must use wood to keep the warmth in I guess.
  17. The finches are so colourful. I love the yellow princess parrots.

  19. How big are kois?
