Thanks Kaz I thought that was how you would do it but I wasnt to sure I couldnt see it clearly in the photos.

Hey Kaz I was just wondering what have you used to hold the mesh up. Would you have any photos of them. Im just trying to figure out how im goin to do it.

It gets to around 40 at the most sometimes 42 or 43 but not very often. i think its only going to be about 2000 high it is going to be very open but its going to have 2 side covered in 2 sides wire so the breeze should keep it pretty cool.

Well it looks like i was wrong and the rain stayed away so the slab did get layed today here are some photos As you can see our pet lamb millie wanted to be in most of the photos. He just has to be the centre of attention all the time You can see my old aviary in the back ground as well its quiet small so the birds will love it once the new room is finished. Well thats all my news from here at the moment hopefully i will start building a frame in the next couple of weeks just waiting for a chook shed to be built then its my turn

Thanks guys it should be really good. Bit of a delay but its been raining for 2 days and looks like it will rain for some of tomorrow as well so the slab mightn't get layed till next week but that doesn't really bother me too much, im just happy to know the slab is getting done soon. :rofl:

Im so excited at the moment cause the slab for my new aviary and breeding room is getting laid on Friday hopefully :sadsorry: The breeding room is goin to be 2400mm x 2400mm and the aviary is going to be 1200mm x 2400mm. I am hoping to have it all finished in about 6 weeks but im about to start year 12 next week and i also have alot of sport and work on at the moment so im not sure if it will be done but i can always hope. Other than that i am just excited things are getting a move on and i will have a better area for my birds by the end of the year :laughter:

hi all can someone please show me how i can make a homemade or for anyone in wagga could i please borrow one brooder as my one day old baby is not getting fed my the hen and i think she is sitting on it to hard and squashing it thank you

Damm thats a good setup. If you dont mind me asking what are your cabinets made out of?? im only wondering cause you said that you need to "soapy watter wash all the cabinets"

Shannon i think you will find that you can ship them anywhere in the continent but not into another continent like you can ship from Britain to Germany Britain to say America.

ohk rightio KAZ i will do that thanks

So would you be suggesting not to remove him KAZ?? The oldest chick is only just 2 weeks old

Really Daz thats pretty crazy. How old should the chicks be before i take dad away from mum and the chicks?? i want him to have a go with this lutino hen i have before its gunne be to close to december when the chicks are fledging

Ohk rightio that means if i pair it with a lutino hen i will get lutino cocks and hens?

I am just wondering how do i check if my green spangle cock is split lutino? out of a clutch of 3 he had one lutino and a clutch of 2 he had 1 lutino. Do i need to pair him with a lutino hen??

Thats great to hear matt i hope it all goes well from hear It really s#%*s me when i hear of vets like that im pretty lucky cause my vet doesnt charge me at all if the consultation is less than 15 mins i have only ever had to pay for antibiotics before and they were only like 10 bucks never a single consultation fee.

I agree with kaz aswell she will need to see the vet ASAP.

Kemma it may not be a long term problem she is probly just more worried about her new surrondings than him (poor guy). How old are they?

Hi Matt if you put her foot on your finger as if she was going to perch on it does her foot curl around your finger? If not then that means she has most likely snapped the ligaments i had this hapen to one of my birds before she may only need to be in the hospital box for 5 days or so but still take her to the vet ASAP i am just goin on previous experinces. I have also need to have had a ring cut off as it was cutting off the circulationlike your is it cost about $50 because they need to use a very small grinder and they need to keep puting water on the ring about every 10 seconds so the birds leg doesnt get burnt.

This is the best thing i have seen in a while THANK YOU Virgin Don't dial Under the Influence! Incoherent calls to exes, bosses and partners could be a thing of the past as Virgin Mobile urges you to get tighter with the right posse. Dial 333 plus a phone number you don't want to call when drunk e.g. 333 0431 123456. Virgin Mobile then stops all calls to that number (e.g. 0431 123456) by blacklisting it until 6am the following morning from your phone. To undo the action in an emergency dial 333CLEAR (33325327). When blacklisting the number dial the number exactly as it appears in your mobile contacts book How much is it?

cool thanks mate please do keep me updated just for interests sake i still wont breed none flyers myself though as its the famliey in futures to come i wonder about not just amediate chicks Yea will i want to see what happens aswell the only reason i gave her a go was because she was inside and nowhere near a male budgie but still got in condition. And then she got really hormonal and started to have a go at the other bird she was caged with plus i had a male bird that was paired with another bird but hadn't done anything in 6 MONTHS i knew he was a good father because he had breed before

Yepp thats pretty much it GB. esspecially since i have 3 chick at the moment. By the way GB that non-flyer has had 2 chicks hatch un fortunatly one of the died it was really small to start with the second one is goin good so She is a first time mum so we will see how things go.

Good news today again no sign of Mr Hawk i think he might have givin up YAY Blake:1 Mr Hawk:0

The fan was only on low so it wouldnt have got hurt just the movement of the fan to scare it off

Well there was vey good news today the hawk didnt come back we left the outside ceiling fan on. and i made the top of the cages look unstable buy throwing an old donna cover over it.

Yes its unfortunate isnt it
