  2. Are there any other alternatives, good ideas are appreciated
  3. if there wern't any birds flying around in the aviary.
  4. thansks for that. how much is insulation? on a small garden shed how much am i looking at? also what about an old aviary with tin around the sides and mesh on the front with breeding cages inside? because at the momnet they ae undr the carport and i want ot move them.
  5. i want to buy a small garden shed just breeding cages in it, no flights or anything like that. if i just have a garden shed will his gettoo hot or anything without insulation. how can i overcome this without insulation. oris it alright thanks cameron
  6. thanks both you guys i now know its asafe to use it in the other breeding cabinets, i normally use newspaper but i think the sand looks btetter cheers cameron
  7. hey im just wondering if it is safe to use a 20kg bag of sand (that my mum bought a while back from bunnings) in a little show cage off the end of my breeding cage. i found in the shed unopened all sealed up. its white sand %100 washedand screened it says. itsfor kids sandpit as a refill. would this be okay for the bttom of birds cages? thanks cameron
  8. If they have bred two rounds, the rest of the year is their holiday in the aviary. Kaz in tbe colder months are they better off in the aviary or breeding cabinets or is there no difference. because i have some good mums that can care for chicksin winter and some justcant handle it.
  9. also what length of time would you recommend for resting in the aviary?? and what is too hot and too cold for budgies? where i live the coldest it gets is about -2 degrees and that is not common the average would be about 5degrees i the morning and warm up during the day and even thats pretty cool winters day.
  10. hi i know that budgies dont specifically have breeding seasons and i am just wondering what time of the yer do you guys breed and rest yours. because you have all seperate flights adnd breeding cages are you constantly rotating the birds from flights to breeding cages? MY SETUP: i just have 16 breeding cages. i have 1 aviary. at current the aviary is empty and all breeding cages are full. now when would you recommend to breed them and when to rest them? my plan is just to have as many breeding cages full as possible and have rest of birds in aviary. then when 1 pair has finished breeding go and select a healthy and in breeding condition pair to replace that cage.will this work effectively. what seasons are better to breed them when do you breed yours? thanks cameron
