okay seems snowy might still be very young to be able to tell anything.... Update: Blue is getting twice daily doses of his parafin oil and it seems to be working a treat. Booga is now doing the happy dance with terri (the lutino) so I am convince he is a he

SaliorwolfThats what I thought too, but seeing as they are supposed to be pets and I was assured they wouldnt breed without a breeding box. I thought it would be okay to mix up the sexes.Also it isnt only bluey doing the happy dance, they both seem to do it together. And then like you said booga just stands there, so I wasnt entirely convinced he was a she. The breeder assured me he was a he, so as you can imagine I am one confuzzeled bunny.as for snowy, he/she (again told it was a he, but who knows yet) even if he did snap his long tail feathers off it still doesnt look right... the others dont have all those tail feathers. Also the other 3 have their wings clipped but I decided against snowy as when I let him/her fly at first she couldnt get purchase (I put this down to being so young) and even now when she goes for a fly she heads straight to the ceiling... like she cant even out her keel....LOL oooh gotcha now.... LOL as I said I havent had such a young bird before....

LOL Thank you for clarifying... I have some more shots of snowy and I have seperated Bluey now as I have read up on some sites about "scaley face" I will get onto that immediatly although I am happy that it is not too far into it... The cage will be geting a decent cleaning today. As for Snowy... Here are 3 more shots I took yesterday. Head Shot Body Shot as you can imagine it is hard to get any clarifty on a white bord... this is the best shot I could do.... But as I said she is pure white (red eyes) except for the speckles on her head . and even those are very lite. Tail (Is this normal or is she cross breed) Also are her furry feathers normal??? (please refer to orginal post) (duh I just reread Kaz's post... will Snowy loose these downy feathers when she moults? I have never owned such a young bird before.

Just out of curiosity I would like to know the colours or type of budgies my four babies are. Hoping everyone can help and I will endevour to post more pics if any are needed. Bluey Head Shot Bluey Body Shot Terri Head Shot Terri Body Shot Booga Head Shot Booga Body Shot Booga we were told is male but her/him and Bluey have been doing a "special" dance before bluey looks like he is mounting her/him. I am no expert but this is what it looks like Snowy More pics to come Example of Snowys Fantail... I am hoping I can get a picture of snowys though. Snowy I have been told is only about 2 - 3 months old and is pure white apart from cinamin (spelling?) speckles on her/his head) Snowys tail is very interesting and I will try to get a picture of it for you. Snowys feathers are interesting too.. all my birds enjoy a morning shower with a atomiser... and most of the water beads and rolls off. But the only way to explain it is on their soft underbelly feathers, when wet they go all bedraggled... Well Snowys like this all over. I might take a picture tomorrow morning after their morning shower. Just ask if you need further pics but I will try to get them for you Tess

Hello My name is Tess and I am a 35 years young mother of 2 boys (humans...lol) and mother to 4 feathered babies. I would dearly love to have them identified and was wondering how I would go about uploading pics and which forum should I be posting on. Thanks Tess
