SKY BLUE CHICK THIS CHICK HAS TWISTED FOOT ID LIKE TO KNOW OTHERS OPINIONS HES 4 AND HALF WEEKS OLD AND IM WONDERING IF HE WILL BE ABLE TO BE NORMAL IN THE FLIGHT OR AS A PET BIRD FOR SOMEONE WILL HE BE ABLE TO PERTCH WHEN OLDER ANY ONE HAD EXPERIENCE WITH THIS REPLY ONLY PLEASE NO GUESSING YOU CAN SEE HE SITS BETTER ON FLAT THIS WAS HIM LAST WEEK HE WALKS IN AND OUT OF BOX FINE I DIDNT REALIZE IT WAS BUNG TILL THIS PHOTO OPINIONS PLEASE

im happy for me too and ill be ecstatic if all gets worked out

i like how its just off ground enough to keep birds from picking at floor n getting ill

its not splat its someone else he also helps me with my birds but not as in culling and information helps me get certain seed im not happy with up this way eg hulled Oates and helps me get stuff i cant get from his end the woods , so on its cheaper down town as we get the extra shipping price stuck on each bag we buy

im not worried about that splat im the queen of mouse proofing also i finally getting some help by looks wont be for a week but ive waited this long so (gb does happy dance and a big yearrrrrrrrrrrrr haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar tosses her hat high into the sky ) and best thing is its from a dear friend that i meet through the birds who has helped me few other occasions hes going to drive down here (he doesnt live close by ) and assess the situation ive got my brother buying me 5 meters of mice wire for the aviary im putting under the tree and im going to start joining it in panels to the outside of the existing wire takes a bit but its kind of like basket weaving in the end so may just be good for me to sit in sun and do peacefully

thanks thats just some of them and they were all pulled in as first time in a show cage ill try get shots just in kinda cage i got good and average ones this time round so mostly cocks too so most will be moved on bar anything split albino or lacewing splits

you did cheer me up hun thanks ' not really envious of my birds though i recon if i was half my hens id be chasing the cock birds around for more they are kind of wam bam in my opinion recon id be very disappointed if i was a budgie

i know i will need help but.... i did it once before as i got sick of waiting how ever its not stable or bird proof due to un level its standing now with the cocky in it but hes huge and cant crawl out the gaps its left under walls im actually quiet determine if need be however i do remember being in bed for two god days after i did it not looking forward to that part off the deal but i am going to get these birds flying if it near kills me splat here is spot i cleared i cut the trees away and kind of semi leveled it ' im very sore maybe why im so grumpy it sort of looks too small mmmmm im very bad at measuring things i hope i got it right

okay re try cremeno number one .. number two with a albino cock a bit of a mystery this one the cinnamon cock again lol 'see this works cin grey again yf grey cock a light green cin grey / lacewing did they work

really witch one worked splat

the new one i have is 3 mters long by 2 n half deep i think high i dont know but i dont need to bend im guessing around 2 n half meters tall maybe not maybe all i know is its got a safety door and then the flight its good size why im having problems putting it up ill show u a picture ill just up load of the spot i cleared its prety bad lol but i did my best

yes i do mean that i started making the foundation to put my other aviary today its not very level but its measured up roughly and i think if i move it over their then i can just get birds flying so im going to get my aviary up even if it kills me ive never been one to be defeated **** if i can come out of a fight with a freight train with barely an issue worth whinging about im sure i can get this annoying s ...t thing beaten

okay let have some more pics these are some of my fav chicks ill get more pics tomorrow first up a skyblue cinnamon cock bird / lacewing a yf sky blue cock bird a cinnamon grey im thinking its a hen

lol oh just what i wanted to see bird **** that spangle sky blue and the normal sky are beautiful

do you think i could use it to stop the little buggers getting their beaks under the wall cavitys where the bricks join the walls wall join the bricks you know

but ive been waiting on broken promises for two years now so many people have said ill be their ill help you get it done but no one ever shows the only few people that have helped really did put themselves out for me and cut into their own time and i do appreciate that they helped me get it to this stage as it would be way worse if they hadn't however i can not ask these people again as it would be wrong knowing they sacrifice their own family time for me thats an idea splat im thinking its just the top of the window thats leaking along the join of the pop out flight to the shed and as for the council they only do lawns and stuff ive had them around a few times i will look into seeing what is on offer ive asked my mental person but she just is mental herself and no help her answers im her to help you re join society not fix your bird shed so you have no reason to ever leave home ..lol shes just silly society and me just dont fit she does my head in to

lol i actually did think about getting the Mormons to help me they have a card down street work done for free this is due to their belief that they need to work for others for free for 15 hours a week or something along them lines but being of Celtic /pagan beliefs i truly can not as its basically using their good fate of their beliefs to get my work done and although i have no issue with their ways or having them help me i feel its wrong to just abuse their good will for my own needs does that make sense was great thought though same as making friends so i can get help it doesn't work like that for me i want someone to help me because they want to nothing expected from it or no need to stay in contact even i really do work better as a individual unit within my own world , so the thought of someone wanting to befriend me is quiet frighting actually as im not really the befriending type im rather selfish and cold i guess im just not very emotional either so find it hard to synthesize with people when they need to whine/vent however my world does tend to fall when nothings structured and although im actually having a sook now i dont expect sympathy just ideas that may work if i do decide to just give it in then this will be my decision based on whats best for my health mentally as im quiet a cranky person when things are so basic to fix yet i just cant to it it really does get my goat and ive waited so long im like it needs to be done yesterday mode my patience is done i want my golden goose and i want it now and if i cant have it then to *** with it all as its so simple and just so so annoying to know i cant just do what i know needs to be done myself frustration is an evil but im afraid its got me this time no its the front that back issue is just a blocked gutter i got a kitchen stool today and jabbed it into the ground to hold it and hoped on and fixed that bit and cut the tree off the area that was getting blocked its the pop out side the front that gets wet dan and yes i believe you would help me if you had time but you are still helping from their so thanks mate also the water is seeping up in between the paves not so much them being damp and the birds get they beaks in and pick the sour wet seed out thats how they get sick the leaking window ive been dealing with with saw shavings its expensive but works i just have to clean it out everyday make sure its dry on the bottom its hard to explain with out showing maybe ill get some pics tomorrow and explain exactly im just so riveted right now i guess im not making much sense

what it actually is is the bit between the back porch and the bird shed the little path to the carport where the cocky and my s hit answer to the bigger issue half set up and with the wrong type of parrot in it is that area gets flooded but not always mostly its just constantly wet their but the that doesn't affect the flight side that just causes mold to grow on breeding side a definitely issue in my view the flight side is due to the window in the pop out never being finished its not sealed and bits of wood to keep the rain out have not been measured and cut to size so i cant place them on i cant get on a ladder to fix the stupid leak on top of flight and half the roofs still not screwed in fully so it laggs down just anoying im just like arhhhhhhhhhhh over all of it i thought of a trench why i asked how deep one needs to be and all but i can see myself in hospital before this sh,... t sheds ever is finished im so close but so far away from the whole thing being just enjoyable i wouldnt even know what sides the low side to be honest

kaz gives some great points tips and suggestions id take them aboard also id not leave a gap between floor and ground if concrete slab is not an option then mouse wire underneath the area you wish to place aviary build the ground up with gravel about 4 inches high on the inside of your aviary then pave this will stop damp and mice and you get a solid floor this is the way i should of done it and id be having no issues right now only i pop riveted stanisteel messing to bottom my shed all way around to keep the mice out and now i cant fix the stupid thing as i cand just move it back and then build the ground up and repave think hard and long once you have done it its harder to fix

goldenface in my opinions easyer what do you want to know about it exactly

its not that they wont come and help so much as they all work and then on weekends thats their only family time and time for their own birds splat it is just a matter of fixing things but thats the whole thing as it was not finished ever because it seems to look working order no one seems to get whats wrong with it i have explained and well no one seems to be able to help me concreting over top wont help splat that was what i wanted to do to fix issues but ive been told by 5 people it wont work people are happy to suggest ideas that are beyond my ability yet cant suggest anything i could do myself that would work so what im wanting is a resolution i myself could do at ren your quote .MY ISSUES ARE NOT THAT BAD I JUST NEED TWO PEOPLE IM BUT ONLY ONE THAT MADE NO SCENE REN I KNOW WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE JUST NO ONE TO DO IT OR ANYONE THAT ACTUALLY CAN but thanks for your well wishes i know its basically a useless cry for help n all but im so so so at a loss guess i just figured you all may just toss ideas at me i relize no one can actually physically help but ideas no matter how stupid they may sound are they may just trigger a thought of my own that could work i just really am not able to enjoy my birds when i cant house them properly and know they are safe i was wondering if i just put sand and gravel in the flight for now would this be okay so long as i baycox them 3 monthly as its really just a damp floor im worryed about

hey everyone some of you may hear me mention my flight/breeding room is really just c r a p well just to fill you in a bit ive done everything i can to make my flights the best for my birds health i went as far as lining it and adding a pop out flight for the summer i split it into two flight on one side and breeders on other i layed terracotta paves and its totally mouse proof it has two side doors for ventilation /stopping draft a vent in the roof to let out the heat and a it has shad cloth to keep heat off in summer sounds good doesn't it well ...... its not ITS DOING MY HEAD IN to the point im about ready to just sell all my birds and give it all in im even prepared to sell the shed to anyone who is willing to come take it down and put back up but it would be a rather big job in my opinion and i dont see anyone wanting to do that and considering the only issue im really having with it is getting it fully finished it may be a rash decision to do that its just as i prefer to not keep friends i don't have anyone to ask that can actually help me fix the stupid thing dont get me wrong i have friends , more like acquaintances but i dont see these people day to day life or even talk to them i thought id make friends at club and i have but again acquaintances throw the club nights and shows only not really how i pictured it any one that will help me lives in either a different state or country and ones in vic or close to me most have said they will but never do due to not having time or other reasons and im just so depressed about it all ive been breeding almost 4 years show birds now and my shed was started the year before i started show birds and its still not finished im sure it could be done in a day the things i can not do myself but as they are things i can not do myself that leaves no one to do them and i can not do the things i can do myself until the main things are finished so im at a total loss i was going to hire a hubby but its going to cost me so much i may as well just buy a whole new flight which brings me to another issue , I ALREADY DID THAT but as im unable to put it up myself due to its size its still sitting under my car port where its been for almost 11 months now ive asked many people to help me ive even asked them to just come and put my new flight up so my birds can at least fly they have been caged in holding cages for three months now and they need to fly its only going to take few hours to level a spot and put it their it just bolts together but again no one has time that ive asked the only reason i culled my stock was room i couldnt stand seeing them all stuck in little cages so now i have only 30 hens and 15 cocks left so they at least can move from each side of cage if they want happily with out bickering for a space to land so ive come to the place where im just trying to find a dodge solution ( as we all know im all about dodge so long s it works and is safe ) so ..... my dodge idea is to cover the terracotta pavers with sand and gravel about 5 inches all over but to first cover the floor with concrete plastic to stop the rising damp which is a issue im trying to resolve then i need to know is silicon dangerous to the birds ?? and what else could i use to seal a leak from inside flight as im unable to climb ladders (due to my injerys im unable to do alot of basic things ) why i cant fix my flight/breeding room alone also i need to know how deep does a trench have to be around my shed to take rising moisture away after rains i can dig about a shovel in a half deep but thats about it so is that enough ? please guys i need a solution as im just plain sick or haveing nothing that surrounds me actually workable or in full working order my dads been doing things but hes waiting on a knee reconstruction and his knees so bad he can hardly walk at times and his hands are only half functional due to being caught and squashed in a press and to top it off hes only got one eye and hes half blind in that so i have decided that given hes 60 plus dad isnt an option anymore hes helped enough and would kill himself just to finish it for me if he knew how much it was getting me down theirs days i sit in their all day long just looking at my poor caged birds and cry i really need help im at my end .. and i know to give them up would be as damaging as the depression im feeling as they are basically what keeps me so im stuck in catch 22 position im asking for ideas to help me right my situation cheers in advance gb

you will just have to read the yf symposium again and again its the best info on how it al works ive seen for a while but just basic rule is yf to normal give a probable half the chicks coming out yf does that help with what you wanted or did you want the full kit n kaboodle as if you did then that thread is your awnser just lkeep reading it and dont be afraid to ask questions on it even if it seems they are all awnsered as it can be simplifyed to extend by someone whom knows more im a bit of a yf cufudle i know it but it still gets me at times and i get confussed

couldnt agree more it was his mistake not yours
