Hi all Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this type of seed feeder: It is a gravity feeder and it would be excellent to use becausethe birds couldnt waste the seeds and their wouldnt be seed husks everywhere Are these good to use? Any tips on them would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou.

okay Thankyou all.

Hi all the babies from summers first clutch are roughly two months old and are already starting to moult, is this a bad thing? Eg: Lack of minerals/vitamins or somthing? Can anything cause moulting to start early?

okay so that means its a skyblue type one? Her body colour looks more like an aqua colour which means the yellow has bleeded into the body?

okay Thankyou all I am going to order calcivet 250ml for $25.00 + $7.70 postage. Does anyone know how long this would last If I just gave it to breeding birds 3 times a week (6 cages)

100 ml is $18.50 + $5.00 postage. Is this better than I would find in a pet shop? How long would 100 ml last?

okay so my birds are getting enough vitamins and minerals. I will buy some more calcivet is $12.85 for 50 ml a good price? I'm not sure how much postage is.

Hi Nutrical is vitamins and minerals aswell isnt it? I thought calcivet is only calcium and doesnt have any minerals in it? the nutrical stuff does contain minerals and vitamins. How else can I give the birds vitamins and minerals?

Hi I have never used Vetafarm before but I would like to now. I have a few questions. 1. Have you used vetafarm before? Is their any sites that have cheaper products or is vetafarm cheapest? 2. Is this product good for the birds: D nutrical 500g: http://www.vetafarm.com.au/products/D-NUTRICAL-500g.html 3. Can you think of any other nutritional supplements I should buy from vetafarm while I get this other stuff? Any help is greatly appreciated thankyou.

Hi all The baby survived the night and is doing well, he has been fed.

Some people think yellowface type 2 and some think type 1. I will take another picture. Thankyou all. New picture

Thankyou Elly. Will the yellowface chicks be all type 2's or can I get type 1's aswell?

Oh okay I see now. Sorry all.

If you breed two violet recessive pieds together to get a violet recessive pied, then dont you already have two violet recessive pieds ? Yes but I dont see your point KAZ. Jwancia asked: what pairs you could put together to get this type of budgie And I said if you pair 2 violet recessive pieds you could get violet recessive pied babies. Am I incorrect?

Id say violet recessive pied female. I think you can get a violet recessive pied by breeding 2 violet recessive pieds together? Other than that I have no idea.

okay So now bullet is not a yellowface type 2? She is not skyblue or cobal, she is more of an aqua colour and that is why I thought she was yellowface type 2. Thankyou Neville and RIPBudgies

okay Thats very good to know thankyou KAZ.

okay Thankyou KAZ and **liv** KAZ, Can you explain how perspex helps with hens plucking babies? Thankyou all.

okay I thought that the baby eats the yolk before breaking out of the shell, if this was the case wouldnt it mean that yolk would be in its abdomen? Here is a picture. That is excellent that he is not immature. Thankyou very much **Liv**

Thankyou very much Dave_Mcminn and **Liv**Thankyou very much Melbournebudgies

Hi **liv** Their is no yolk in the eggshell or under the skin on his abdomen, none outside the body either. Should I take a picture of the baby next to a 5 cent piece so someone can tell me if he is to small to survive or not?

Hi all The first egg hatched from sumo and bullets nest today, the chick looks quite small and It hatched 2 days early. What are the chances of this baby surviving? It has been fed and is being incubated.

Hi all Is bullet definitly a yellowface type 2: If bullet were paired to a male cobalt normal, what would the chicks be? Please say the exact percentages eg: 50% blue 25% grey 25% yellowface Thankyou all.

You can decrease his daytime by covering his cage with a sheet.

okay Ill see what I can do thanks Jimmy.
