  1. well you seem to of done very well does the foot seem to be getting worse or staying same as if it gets worse id try find a avian vet as normal vets dont usually have a clue but if no worse save your money if you have betadine (not the horse one ) the human one then id be inclined to water a few drops down in boiled water and apply that and let it sock in this will stop any infection from entering the blood as it will penetrate into his skin still use your cream as for vent id pull off any poo and again just dip his bum i betadine its my fix for injured birds animals in general he seems healthy to visually look at maybe go get a little bag off canary or finch mix to add to the trill as maybe hes not use to the trill with all its stuff not only that birds are fussy if the seed is old even a week in their container they wont eat it i personally wont eat anything left over night its same with them why seed change dayly is recommended and as husks can look like un eaten seed from just a look get him a length of millet if you can from pet store and see if you can find out what the details of the ring were from the vet ' and post here we may know whom breed him and be able to find his home some breeders although should not do tend to let trouble some birds go or older birds as they dont see the issues with this sadly which their are so many eg sickness and deaths via anything really hes a lucky boy to of had you find him did you see colour of the ring ???
  2. pinker the better maybe others were not as in good health hence the death for no apparent reason and YAY PINKY :}
  3. okay their is one dead chick you can see no food the next chick alive also no food in crop hope that helps
  4. bump up for someone bump bump
  5. sometimes they are just not getting enough protein to produce crop milk and you need to give them extra to help out glad its worked dont forget take out any left over with in few hours of feeding specially in warm weather glad things turned out well so far (since death)
  6. lol omg im so sorry thats funny as its not necessary to do mantra with a budgie to tame it hee hee hes correct in his movements but the reasons why are beyond ridiculous you hold your hand steady one side NOT to send out love vibrations or trust BUT to stop the budgie feeling vulnerable and scarred in such a big environment as compared to a cage the room is quiet intimidating i have al;ways used these taming techniques just being calm and softly spoken always talking in your normal voice unless adressing bird personally so on its good vid but sending love vibes lol my goodness besides that birds clipped so you would have a few trys with a un clipped bird before it went on its back but not to many calm persistance is all the special powers that man has anyone with same calm could do that with any animal
  7. clear body works yea this is possible didnt even think of that let us know what becomes of any results of her breeding im interested now to know :} )edited due to my stupidity ) um exept clearbodys dont have pink eyes for some reason i keep thinking they do but they dont so she can not be a clearbody stupid me
  8. and brumby is right pair it to another ino type bird and you will get 100 percent ino if its not ino you will get only /ino cock birds or ino hens as its a hen so you may get ino hens from the cock bird but all cocks will be not red eyes and some hens will also be normal eyes but now i have seen your other birds im leaning toward ino dompied spangle opaline light green as you have many dom pied's an it is not unlikely that you have brought out a fellow gene if breeding has been colony for some while as only need to split birds to come across each other could of been one bird with the fellow split gene and its taken while for other birds to be produced then come together in mating as fellow being rececive can carry or may not carry from a split cock or hen just like rececive pie gene works same
  9. yep shell and all
  10. yes mash egg n weetbix and grated carrot sometimes the hen needs a little extra protein to produce crop milk worked for my hen whom was feeding mainly air daily
  11. bag in bin yep
  12. birds indoor cant benefit the natural vit d they need as it does not penetrate through glass a vit d supplement is needed for any indoor bird that never sees natural sun out doors if you ring your birds you could do what i do and use last years rings on one leg and this years on other and tie the rings with cotton it works great
  13. is it possible that other ino is a ino pied as you have lots pied( dom pieds )thats more than possible would explain the suffusion coming through also
  14. looks like a spangle opaline fallow to me but if rip in nub say ino then their more expert than me and youd need splits or a visual for that to happen (fallow i mean)
  15. im deeply sorry for your lose i know how this feels i was taming a little bird for someone and he was coming along very well he to loved company to point would want to be with you everywhere i had my family over and as i was doing something for my daughter i left the room thinking 5 capable adults would be fine with the little bird after all he was being doted all over but i was wrong everyone left the room leaving my uncle alone with my nanny now uncle it the type that if something happens he wont touch it as he doesnt want the blame for anything so when my little`friend tried to drink out of a half empty glass of water my sister left on table instead of grabbing him out when he fell in as any normal person would he walked out to me and proceeded to wait till no one was talking to me then he exclaimed in a very normal manner i was just wondering if your bird was ment to be flapping upside down in a cup of water i was OMG and ran out but it was too late :{ i never will understand why he took his sorry a r s e time to alert me and i guess i will always be cross he did not help him out i didnt think anyone could be that stupid as to wonder if a young bird was actually ment to be drowning in a glass of water so i actually can feel where your coming from my deepest sympathy gb
  16. looking back at your pics your hen doesnt have iris rings and wings are grizzled like a pie she could be a rec pied with full wings my friend just breed few them although your hen has full body which i never seen on a full winged pied so i really am not going to be saying she deferentially is just some pieds are full winged i had a clearflight pied whom looked normal one day i noticed one clear flight hidden way under all the others only as my pair had 50 percenmt pieds i was stumped so did full re look on birds to find if i could work it out as its a co dom gen i think clear flight turned out one small white flight right on end wing under all other flights so ??? i dont know will have to wait i guess see what it comes out like
  17. pics of mum n dad please and yes its opaline and could just be spangle with the pied spot have to wait in see what it feathers up like to give better judgment does look pied though
  18. ive told my dear friend that when he is ready that i will breed him another bird of his desired specifications although she will never be Tammy i will make every effort to make him/her as spesh as possible as i do with all my requested breeding's for a special Birdie friend im saddened as i truly know how much she ment to you mate made me happy to know she had such a great guy to be her company i am hoping as shes so tame that she has been found and has a nice home she has a ring on (10 bcv 366 are the first three numbers but could be anything from 3662 ..3 to...4...5....7...8...9 i didn't actually record her ring but i know it was in that few numbers just in case she was found she was sky-violet or cobalt show stock bird again sorry darl and when ever your ready you know where to find me
  19. put some gravel down first if your going to put in sand and it drains way better i have been useing sawdust as my aviary flooded its worked great and cheaper than replacing sand it is easy to remove and replace and sokes up all the wet a light raking of the sand and the top sweeped doesa resonable job at cleaning the sand kaz i had sand for a while its all i ever did but my sand never got damp i was lucky
  20. the last one is a double factor dom pied violet mauve or mauve id say df golden face under 6 months the first one looks single factor golden face and a violet on my screen possibly Opaline but i cant really tell by those pics as with the second one looks violet also and again sf gf they are very pretty birds keep eye on the first little fella he looks tad fluff and hunched i could be very wrong its been a while ive had pretty birds and im very lacking in my colours in mutation mixes of late this will help the more i try to get right so dont take me as correct wait for other opinion in case they correct me as im possibly wrong as for grey wing >?????? i have no clue
  21. my thoughts exactly (what she said is my guess )
  22. thats what i was getting at eventually, lol i just wasn't sure as i couldn't see its front of bird so cant see the band acrossed belly and the sister looks normal spangle not dom why i asked what parents were still think its a hen what you think rip cock or hen

  24. i dont understand what you mean by brighter than a normal spangle ?? can you explain also did you use a flash and what makes you say male ??? looks like a hen to me if its under 6 months then maybe a male but over then its a hen for sure i dont understand what you mean by brighter than a normal spangle ?? can you explain also did you use a flash and what makes you say male ??? looks like a hen to me if its under 6 months then maybe a male but over then its a hen for sure can i ask what his mum n dad are ?? you sure hes dom pied ? he may just be a spangle with a head spot that is a normal acurance hes sky blue and goldenface that i am sure of (she) the rest well i couldnt tell you :{ sorry
  25. omg well it would been the rats that caused your first troubles few months ago one urinate and thats it all it takes i didnt think it sounded like cocci or megga thought maybe draft but rats n snakes bang thats it your issue from start best thing is to mouse wire whole flight (double wire you wont have issues again with either pity the snake didnt eat your rat :{ we all go through a **** first year i believe its a test to see how devoted we are i guess stick in their you still have birds their that will replace what you have lost quality in all :} just about pairing choices now :} lock the good ones up lol in till they produce for you he hee (just jokes )
