Oh dear Well Kaz i should have known better b;ame it on old age and just being to bloody smart for my own good

i have been cabinette breeding for many yrs and only laterly decided to insert some nesting boxes into my aviary with the aim of having the birds in there, acting natually as posiblie if you had seen my post on the work my better half did on decorating the boxes you would know that i satrted this about 2 weeks ago and thats the time it lasted i lost 1 hen that was my daughters favorite so nesting boxes ended up on tip very quickly

Hi all need the experts advice again can you help with what i am many thanks VPX Irish LA Murph BA Many Thanks

Hi Brian i use old cds as long as u you dont put then right next to avairy as they can then scare the budgies i hang mine about 2 ft away it does work and as Kaz said bird netting is the way to go

welcome and good luck with your bird

Way to go mate little steps at a time turn into big ones good luck with it

Thanks for the info i think ill give it to someone who has canaries i do know they like it

This questiom might be in the to hard basket

Hi all i have been given a couple kg each of Rape, Niggar, and linseed. can you use these seeds with budgies. I know you can use small amounts of linseed not sure about the others. Any advice would be most welcome .

I like water under my boathouse lol Haha well, I don't suppose that would go down too well with budgies! Last thing we need is a mass-drowning on our hands :hap: Call out the lifesaving budgies ,throw in the life rings , man the pumps

I like water under my boathouse lol

Are you going to breed though winter?

Hi Kaz no there is no shade or any sort of covering over the roof unfortunitely where the breeding roon is we can gain NO access to the rear or sides of the roof only the front other wise i would raise a shade cloth as a double roof any chance you or family can fit some insulation inside up attached to the ceiling Dodger ? I have put insulation in the walls and 2 inch thick polystyrene sheeting is glued to the inside ceiling of the birdroom roof. Some people I know have used the lids of the polystyrene fruit and vegies conatiners...freely given at a lot of fruit and vegie shops. The polystyrene reduces inside temp at my birdroom by 15 degrees. Thanks Kaz its a thought ill see what i can arrange

Hi Kaz no there is no shade or any sort of covering over the roof unfortunitely where the breeding roon is we can gain NO access to the rear or sides of the roof only the front other wise i would raise a shade cloth as a double roof Hi Jimmy yes weather station is connected to computer alarm goes off when inside temp reaches 28 then goes of every time it raises 1 deg can be a B at times lol but it6 works and keeps me on my toes :what:
