GB can you tell me why you say that about this bird? Not being a breeder or show budgie person, I'm just curious; and I think your birds are beautiful, especially the greys which I've never seen in person. why i say that he will never leave or neither will any of his chicks if thats what your asking me its bcause he is a Australian golden face with very well breed blood lines the breeder themself has all other birds from his line and didnt want to really let him go im very lucky to have got him and as im going to be doing the same venture with him as the breeder is i guess he was willing to let me have a chance of achiving it this is to achive a show quality goldenface of a df statace in cobalt he was the lesser brother of some fantastic birds of his typeing i will be keeping all his bloodline and if letting any of them go or ever him (never)lol they will be going to the breeder i got him off i have been given a fantastic opatunity and can not express my thankyou to these certain breeders whom have been not only helpful but very generous and gone out of their way to give me a heads start with some very well bred and beautiful stock which i will picture up on here soon you will then see what i mean by doing their up most to help out a up and comming breeder (me) to them if they ever see this

not something you would give the birds coming up to a show :rofl: mine love the beet do you just toss one in whole or do you give pickled ??? i cook and i pickle mine with vinegar

you can say that again a few breaths and then nothing :rofl: im even marking my eggs as due a whole day after intill i can control myself so far this system is working and i have killed none and saved all i have helped i think your right about sept eggs having trouble this year mine did i thought their diet may of had to much calcium

:rofl: lol thats funny as thanks darl i will try get the picture of hen on for you to see her up to date oh he is definitely sky violet as is she see who can upload first lol :rofl:

:rofl: :rofl: As for photobucket I have no trouble at all, aint I smart You see I put all my pics in photoshop edit and resize then save then I go into photobucket go into download photos and select what ever I want, just before I select 55 pics in one go pushed download went and watched murder she wrote for 5 minutes come back in and wellar all done so easy. Sorry guys but it is easy yes you are im unfortunantly not quiet all their lol photo bucket resizes my pics for me but i have a really slow com and even when bulk uploader is used it takes like 1 hour for 30 pics 1 picture takes 5 minits thats not a lie hate hate hate it as for editing on com first i have piccasa 3 so thats easy as i could send a whole file resized and all in one click but dam photobucket still wont deal with it personally i think its my com its like a dinosour grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr i have to dedicate a whole day to uploading pics to photo bucket and then im basiclly over it *** i still cant post a picture for budgie of the month i been here a year lol its called the hommer sindrom but i aventually manage

totally agree i am a inpatient introvener and i have killed chicks as they cheeping and all day long and i see dark spot freak out and help chick only for it to have belly button food left one day would have hatched beautifully i band myself from bird room now till day after hatching im getting better only killed one this season i killed **** loads last year bad bad bad slap myself heaps never help unless you hear chipping subside considrably and egg blackened which is poo

its all in the cheek patches mate if their grey grey if their violet as in purple hes violet if their like purpleish blackish grey hes mauve also whats mum and dad cause i recon hes mauve not violet grey but that is poss but only if theirs grey factour involved which i dont think their is in your violet line so mauve

and being from a violets nest could very well be mauve remembering it is a modifier like violet and grey it can come in 3 shades also is that right kaz ???

this make sence my other option if it was not sex linked was fellow yf 2 but cant be that and if the pied has nothing to do with it then their goes my fellow yf pied thery lol and no thk i ment that being in mexico it couldnt mean it was australian golden face so has to be yf2 but i think you have a good out come with deans anilise of the mutation lacewing yf cobalt dilute agreed
