Thankyou very much Jaz, elly and Daz. Im going to try violets now, Ill let you know how I go. EDit: With these tables, I can tell what a spangle paired to a normal's babies will be, a spangle paired to a spangles babie's will be, but I cannot tell what a spangle paired to another mutations babys will be. For example: Spangle paired to recessive pied: I am just guessing it would be all spangles split recessive pieds unless the spangle is split pied. Can I use these tables to get this information? Nevermind I scrolled down and found the dominant to recessive table

Hi Just wondering if their are equasions like these for other mutation parings? Example: Dominant pied to normal, spangle to dilute etc.. Any equasions you have could you please share them. Thanks very much Edit: Ive just found a table in the faq and Im wondering if I am right in understanding it. For a spangle to spangle paring, Would this table be correct: Single Factor X Single Factor = 25% Double Factor = 50% Single Factor = 25% Normal For spangle to a normal pairing, would this table be correct: Single Factor X Normal = 50% Single Factor = 50% Normal For rec pied to rec pied, would this table be correct: Recessive X Recessive = 100% Recessive for light green split blue to light green split blue, would this table be correct? Normal/Recessive X Normal/Recessive = 25% Normal = 50% Normal/Recessive = 25% Recessive NB: Visually you will be unable to tell which normals are also split recessive if these are correct then I am well on my way to mastering genetics.

Hi Ive found some good quality guinie pig drinkers for sale and im wondering if they can be used for budgies? They are the ones that hang on the side of the wire with the ball in the end of the spout thing. Has anyone used these before? Are they good?

That's My Club. What is the full ring number? I might either know the breeder or it could be one of my birds. :hug: I did sell / give some of my birds to a friend in your area. Fernvale Hi DAZ The ring symbol is Pr 399 KL

/very cute budgies you have their.

I cannot see any pictures.

Thankyou Genericblue.

Thankyou KAZ

Yes you are right Genericblue. I posted pics of the baby budgies from october here: http://forums.budgiebreeders.asn.au/index....mp;#entry285553 If anyone would like to have a look

Hi I thought I'd do an update on the babies that hatched in october last year. Enjoy Most of these birds are moulting yf green op spangle hen The wild bird I caught is on the left Both violet sisters I caught Spiderman Cannot post anymore pics until someone posts

Thankyou all for the help. I will use the suggest colours and test themout.

I would do that if the mites come back and I cannot get rid of them. Thankyou very much.

Hi Yes I have not seen a single red mite in 3 days, But their is always a chance of them coming back. I would love to hear your suggestion genericblue. Thanks.

okay thankyou Jimmy, I will get some white cardboard and stick it on the back. Are photos with flash best taken outside in sun light or inside?

Hi all Does anyone happen to know what the ring code "PR" is? Which club is this?

Hi I am going to make a cage where I put the birds I want to take photos of in. It will have one perch and it will be about the size of a breeding cage. What colour background should I have? Which colour brings out the best of the bird? My camera is not very good, 4 megapixel. I will be using flash unless I need to know the sex of the bird, flash gives me way clearer pictures. Any advice would be great.

I took babies to the vet this morning. He said the green baby is french moult and has only a 5% chance of growing all his feathers back. The blue one is french moult also and has a 95% chance of growing feathersback. He also trimmed their beaks.

a - male b - female c - male d - male e - female f - female g - female h - female??

Thanks Genericblue. I will keep the parents in the avairy and will not breed with them anymore.

Congratulations misty.

Hi KAZ I also have polystyrene roofing and it keeps the avairy ALOT cooler. I know whaty you mean about working in the hot days also. It will be good to see the finished product. Good luck.

I like pair 3 and 6 best shannon.

I am very sorry to hear this :glare:

Lost power and I had so much typed :glare: Recap: Key: dd = 0 dark factor dD = 1 dark factor DD = 2 dark factor 0 dark factor + 0 dark factor = dd dd dd dd dd dd 1 dark factor + 1 dark factor = dd dD dD DD 2 dark factor + 2 dark factor = DD DD DD DD DD 0 dark factor + 1 dark factor = dd dd dD dD (50% each) 0 dark factor + 2 dark factor = dD dD dD dD 1 dark factor + 2 dark factor = dD dD DD DD (50% each) Is this all right? If so I can copy it into wordpad Thanks so much all

okay i understand that to. Im just guessing but would light green + mauve = dd + DD = dD dD dD dD (All dark green babies?)
