Can't the Double Factor Spangle as all chicks are spangles. (Hint)

Sounds like he is starting to settle but as Kaz said take it one step at a time. Any problems call me. I'll be home tomorrow working on nest boxes and show cages.

Thanks Pie, The light green in the avatar is the Light green in the photos.

Sorry never heard of that one..

Add 100% Cinnamon hens and 100% split recessive to that pairing. Delete the 50% Cinnamons.

Sounds like a good idea.

What type of Vitamins are you using? On smaller bottles they measure by drops. On larger bottles they give the mls/lt. I might be able to tell you the dosage from what I use.

I'll let others go first.. I take it that you know the hen isn't split Neville.

okay I'll be at SQBBA in the morning.

MDF is dangerous for us to use let alone the birds.

okay the count is in, there is 870 birds at the show with a large BRASEA section.. Should be a good one.

Pine or Ply wood. I use Plywood for my nest boxes.

Teagan Give me a call and I'll come over to see him.

Very, very true. And this is why poor feeder parent to chicks relationships often show chicks losing all their flights in a stress moult type of thing only to grow them back again once they start feeding themselves in the kindie cage. And why only one or two in a nest will be affected only to recover a few weeks later :rofl: you can get french moult for pairing double buff to double buff to False

Advancement in IT... (i don't know) No I won't be doing another web site for myself. I already do two main website, Assist on Two others and co - run this forum with a lot of help from some very generous and smart people.

Let us know how you go. There is an art to it. You will need to do this many times as the chick need to learn how to eat food not air.

Lay the chick on it's back on the palm of your hand and with your forfinger and thumb tilt back the head. With the forefinger and thumb of the other hand gently squease the crop. The chick should lift it's head and burp out the air. Do not squease the contents of the crop up as it will sufacate the chick. If this does not work. Get a sharp needle, disinfect it and puncture the crop with only one hole. the air will escape and the hole will close if the needle is sharp. Only do this if all else fails.

yer and yes to budgie88 like have you breed one and will you breed a french molt if it was a good budgie The Answer is no. You do not go out and breed a FM. If it happens then you have to deal with it but other wise you do not want them. They are on no use to a show breeding plan.
