Pet stores dont pay the price for these birds that they are worth. They mark the price up up and make the profit off you and you never get to see the homes or people they go to. Why give the business to a pet store when you can do it all yourself ? besides i dont want my birds to cost familys a heap all my tamed birds are pretty much same price as my untame birds i started breding birds to give the people some where else to purchus beautiful healthy birds at the price the pet shop gives me for breeding or for pets sometimes my price verys frome 10 to 20 dollors 30 if something very special and rarly seen but still thats cheep as and if you by certain amout after that all birds are 10.00 from their on in this was never about the money the money all goes back to the birds every cent so sometimes people give me what they think is fair for what they are getting and im very thank ful as i do tend to cut myself short to provide happy healthy birds and in doing this dont always make enough to cover their costs but i look at it like this if i didnt breed them i wouldnt need to feed them so sell them or not even if i didnt breed id be paying out of my own pocket to feed so any extra is a bonus besides im very chossy who gets my birds and will keep rather than sell if i dont like the persons attitude if i have to i can give them away if i get to many usually to people who want more but cant aford themthat way i know they got good home my show stock will as it gets better be 30 to fifty per bird depending on its background and its genetics colour so on and anybirds not show quality or show stock worthy will be sold as pet types regardless of their background why would i want to tame birds as a job when im wanting to work on a stud of quality show stock this is going to take up all my time so im finding i may just go back to pets yet and just keep my very best 12 show birds and slowly start again from their its something i been thinking over

thank you tammy is the 9th baby i have tamed with very proud new mummys and daddys i enjoy putting so much into the birds so my clients get so much out of them the only diffrents is now that i relized that its best to start the tamming from in the nest to tell the client that colour really isnt a part of it as i chose a bird from its personality from young so their for dont know what colour it will be however i do try and pair up birds that will give me the varierty out come and nearest or exact colour wanted i also only tame birds through a order system so that if you want a bird like tammy or georgio you have to be willing to do the whole life cycle from pairing to egg from chick to out i also make birth certificates for thoughs whom want one as a added novelty or adoption papers these are laminated or framed for a cost of 10.00 and posted out to you at with in a few weeks my birds also dont cost an arm and a leg for the so called effort put in its a labbor of love not a job and this is why my birds are so much more a companion than most tame birds if i find a bird is not responding i simply find another who does the beautiful thing of freedom of speach on the budgies be half you know from young before feathered if a bird is exepting of wanting to be tamed and working on the personality of the person and then my gut instinct on the right temperament of the chick i choose to work with is all apart of the tameing process it is a lot of time and a lot of hours put into each birds traning not just bit here and their the birds come with me everywhere till they are at the age where they are starting to get inquizitive in which is when i introduce a cage and i make sure the person tells me their routine so as i can work the bird to it its not just oh i want that pritty one if you want a certain colour and typpe id do my best as i said but i dont guarantee colour i guarantee a tamed budgie a friend for life nothing less nothing more so their a bit of my secret

dave i understand what your saying about quarenteen but what im explained is were not quarinteening the birds as they may be sick from where we get them where quarinteening them as when birds get stressed from diffrent suroundings their amune becomes low as you know and they are way more subseptibale to any bugs our own flocks may carry and like it or not almost every aviry bird has megga in system and this being a secondey infection to other stress related illnesses eg parrasisiosus (what ever its called ) is also carryed un seen in alot of flights and only kicks in after stress full times eg breeding or moveing so althoough you may be happy to not quarrentene your birds given where they came from and i do understand that as i to have done this BUT I LOST TWO BIRDS within a month off receving them i was told it is for the individual birds health more than the stud as birds could carry ilness for up to 6 months a year longer with out fleair up its times of stress that can cause it to reboot i just wanted others to understand that not having a go about your quarinteen procedures were all diffrent oh i forgot to say your doing very well mate birds are beautiful with some stand out to me their are birds i dont quarenteen for more than two weeks and birds i do it depends on their stress leavals and my judgment of their vigoro

Jetrick's Breeding Journal
Hi GB Yes for sure, as you no doubt know the strugglers become almost more important than the rest. Great to see him turn out so good thus far. Have a good weekend! Cheers Patrick well for some reason lutes and albinos look to hatch out quiet small and many times weak looking and it always suprizes me the diffrents once out nest its like you were just so small dont forget lutes<albinos and lacewings take a good 18 months to fully mature into themselfs so even the small dodge looking ones could just sprout up and broarden up at around 16 to eighteen months just over night it seems and thank you i do hope to sleep in tomorrow lol thats if i can even get to sleep
