    :sad: that dark green hen is fantastic!!! nice pick their mate! and the other's look great to especially the cinnamon wing
  2. and a good post it is, i had one a week ago as well in the egg, it looked dull in color like you would see in a dead animal of some sort. so i would say she stopped sitting the egg and focused on her bubs
  3. Aww, thats a shame. would have been nice if twin's hatched again.

    Indeed, i dont like to have too many of each gene. as you can see by my photobucket album, theirs not 1 bird thats the same in my aviary, except their 2 identical violet opalines, and 2 normal grey greens look forward to seeing those picture's mate.

    I might start a thread soon similar to what the other member i saw a few weeks ago had, like a day 12-42 growth progression topic. cause i expect some beautiful chicks out of this nest coming up.

    Woot! the mother is a T2YF cobalt opaline violet, and the father is a double factor yellow spangle (Green series) So i will be happy with a few opaline baby's
  11. Here are my other 2 "Terror's" that i have inside as pet bird's, The Galah is a male(Barney) and the rainbow lorikeet is a male(Jack) they both hate each other and jack is super protective of me, if someone comes near me while hes on my shoulder he will fly to them and try to attack them ...dont know why. as for the galah, he's very friendly, just not towards other bird's unfortunately.

  15. mattdog2 replied to mattdog2's post in a topic in Budgie Pictures
    okay here she is, sorry for bad quality, it was night time. in the yellow face's nest, is that an opaline with the white fuzz? Also Dave, the blue up the top of my first picture is opaline as well i think. not just standard blue.
