Hi all you animal lovers This is pretty simple... Please tell ten friends to each tell a further ten today! The Animal Rescue Site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily so they can meet their quota of getting free food donated every day to abused and neglected animals. It takes about 15 seconds to go to their site and click on the purple box 'fund food for animals for free'. This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate food to abandoned/neglected animals in exchange for advertising. Here's the web site! Please pass it along to people you know - http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com/

Double Factor Grey Greens look the same as a single factor. The only thing is that they throw all Grey Greens.

I think I posted these in another topic?

How big is the bird? Mine are 50mm diameter.

Sorry 50% will be Double Factors.

I see that you have a problem with Water coming in. Becareful of that. Also the Feeder is covered in droppings. Might pay to give it a clean and move it to a position that is not in their direct firing line.

Have a few from the Caboolture Show that was on Sunday.

You get (using the visual violet as a subject) LDv is a single Factor LvDv is double factor LDv x LvDv = LLv (Violet Sky) LDv (Visual Violet) DvLv (DF Visual Violet) DvDv (DF Violet Muave) So you will get 50% SF and 50% DF Lets look to see what would happen if the Violet factor was on the Light Factor on the fist bird. LvD x LvDv = LvLv (DF Violet Sky) LvDv (DF Visual Violet) DLv (SF Visual Violet) DDv (SF Visual Violet) This is different to above. You will still get 50% SF and 50% DF but they are on different birds. :sad:

Interesting Pairing.. All the chicks are Split to Recessive pied. 25% will be Double Factor Violets. You can work out where the violet factor is sitting on which dark factor if you work out the outcome.

Hi Nubbly and Welcome... It's a long way from Busselton. Great Show last year. Hope to see you in Burnie.

Got to agree with Rainbow... Looks like a hen in this shot.

If I can just reach that last seed on the bottom of the bath with my right wing..... nearly got it....

Hey Daz why do you say that because that has been my mystery all my DF seem to have red eye when they hatch so I say to myself cinnamon **** but when they are adults and breed they normal young well some anyway. so can you explain the red eye thing to me as it's driving me crazy. When a Double Factor Spangle Chcik is hatched it has Cinnamon / red / pink eyes for the first few days. (My colour blindness is showing) It is one way of quickly telling what the chicks may be.

Hen

I don't know if i'll show. I have Brisbane and Norhtern this weekend then Surfers PAradice and than Sunshine Coast. The team have just done two shows and I want to rest them. Brisbane & Northern Suburbs will have a new team that might go to Surfers. The current team will then be saved to go to Sunshine. I want to Show at SCBA as I could get enough points to go up to Intermediate. I think I only need two at SCBA.

Thanks Guys... Here are some of the photos of the show.

Hen needs to have mask and spot. Should also have a good top end. He needs a bit more frontal. The statue is good and and shoulf complement hers. I would be looking for another spangle or normal that has been bred from a spangle. I would also think about a grey or cobalt hen.

Great Day to day. Nearly 300 birds benched. Some very good birds on display. It should be a good Preselection for SQ. I won: Best Young AOV/AOC Novice with a Dark Eyed Clear. Best Any Age Cock Novice Best Young Hen Novice Best Young Yellowface Novice 1st Young Light Green Cock 1st Young Skyblue Cock 1st Young Opaline normal Cock 2nd Old Dominant Pied Cock.

Louie, Let me know how much for Calcivite 1 lt, True Grit (Fine) 10kgs, Moulting Aide 500ml. Also their Budgie and Finch Crumble. 5kgs.

There's a few year to change over. You can't be penalised for a marked cage during that time.

Keep an eye out for Cinnamon Eyes. They will be the Double factors.

Vitamin D3 can be sourced through other sources.

I understand that Melbourne past 46deg C today.

The current standard is now changed to Powder Coated. Many of us are getting our fronts done together at a cheap price. Talk to your club about this. They should be able to help.

The hen is a Spangle opaline. Very good pairing Kaz. I look forward to the results.
