*Nerwen*

I was leaning towards grey wing as well, the wings patterns are not that light enough for a dilute in my thinking. Hurdy I can't see any blue on the wings for opaline.

Yes Daz she is a super Nanny to them

AWWW I'm so glad to hear he is okay.

oopps :hap: I was just adding what came to mind trying to get it confusing Thanks for pointing those out.

love that high pitched note at the end, before you rudely interupted him. :hap:

Yeah I have but not for a while and not with the info I have I can understand what I'm seeing :hap: Thank you. And thanks for leting us take this topic a bit sideways

:(Laughing out loud): Looking again I think Smokey is a spangle too.

fixed it made him cobalt

well sure, But I have seen pictures of them, just not the back Which I thought was very silly

go lin or rather go lin's birds :(Laughing out loud): Anne if that's the case then you only need two cages.

Budgiebird I just edited to give names to the picture to help people (even I was getting confused :ausb:) I must say a very big welcome to Rocket. Yes he is my favourite Must get to perth and steal him Smokey looks like a dilute to me, the body colour is reduced alot compaired to a normal grey. Hurdy whitewing is a name for a blue clearwing. Is it just me or has does it look as if astro has eyeliner on? :(Laughing out loud): They are all great, but are you sure Lovey is a girl? Looks like a boy to me in the picture

that site is good and the only one I found that tells me what to look for in the saddle back mutation. (i've been dieing to find out about that one and what it looks like)

Thought you would answer Yes I think I should start a lesson up again, I wonder what mutation I haven't covered.

Has he got all his feathers? Was he finding your finger and flying okay before? How long has he been like this? I was thinking a moult might have been making it harder for him to fly but it doesn't match the not finding finger theing. He is tame? Was he happy to sit on your finger before? I have to suggest a trip to the vet to get him all checked out. Yes we here are all bird lovers and owners yourselfs but not vets. When a probelm arrises the most ocmment responce when we are unsure is to see a vet.

They handle it well Anna Are you really planing on breeding them all at the same time? That would be a LOT of babies (Laughing out loud).

That's up to you and what you feel is right. If you feel you want to wait and check in case your reading the candling incorrectly then let her sit on them.

:(Laughing out loud): yeah and silly me didn't take the camera with me Mum wasn't too pleased this morning she jumped in looked at me then started to tuck them all under her. It was funny too see.

Answers in a week (or unless you all bug me before time )

:(Laughing out loud): I like the set up of the cages, but are you really going to want to get up and down a chair to check on birds and clean and relpace food and water all the time?

That's what I meant Lovely Asking the parents I wouldn't even tell the kids about them. They are all animal lovers. I'm meeting up with them at easter time a few weeks before these one would be ready for a new home so I'm asking then (with some very cute pictures :(Laughing out loud): ) I held Squeaker again today but this time it was to move him out of the way so I could check Scuttle. I just wanted to be sure he had some food in his crop, Reepiceep's crop this morning was huge! Almost matched the size of his belly.

If there is nothing in any of them now, remove them. This simply means she will jump back to the start and get interested in the male again for more mating and a second round of eggs.

sorry again, the idea just came to me. I forgot about the post above with the pictures. Daz Shant stated they have been together in the cage for a year so they are both of age, I guess that's an old picture of him.

:( I keep seeing this everywhere but I for one don't believe it.

that was great. Had me laughing at his talk. They both seem to err love that tail on the toy.

Yes I am. All but one if my friend does want one when they are ready. She said she did but things can change. I'm also wondering about offering one to some family members, I have cousins with two boys around the age of 10 and 8. But I don't know if they are into birds at all.
