It Okay Amy... I'm not having a good week either... Almost didn't make it either... Hope you are able to come to the next one in June... There isn't one in May because of the National sections... :emoticon112:

Thanks nubbly... I understand now... :hap: I was so confused before it wasn't funny...

Okay so we can't get this yourself than from a Rural shop without the Vet's okay first...? Is that right... :hap: Because I thought the product that was named up top was this... http://www.nrrbs.com.au/animalhealthivomec.htm *scratches her head in confusion*

Hey GB, is it just a raw chicken carcus you give them...? Is there anything you do to it before hand...? And how long do you leave it in the aviary before removing it, so it doesn't make anyone sick...?

Did she go into the aviary with others when she was well...? She may have got worms again from someone in there, did you treat all your birds for worms...? Another thing you may want to give your aviary or cage a good clean, walls washed down, floors, etc... The one that all your birds are kept in... Hope she gets better soon...

She is too old to breed with Joel...

Geez, maybe we have been wrong all this time...

More than 7yrs... I would not breed her...

Thanks Kaz, I'll be there tomorrow to pick him up...

Sure Dave send Quiche back...

Thanks nubbly for that... I will try some different ways of breaking them... But they looked so good after they were dry... Some others will get done and a bit more fine turning on others, including show cage training...

Agreed with Kaz on all of that...

Well, I gave the washing thing a go today and it defiantly improved the look and feathers of my birds... I don't do a complete dunk, not feeling comfortable with it but wash the top with a toothbrush as I saw on the movie we watched at the southwest club the other day... I will be making that a part of my show pre... Now i have a question about the pin feather part, I manager to do some but others would come out with the feather... Is there a length you should wait to before attempting this...?

:rofl: ... Smarty pants... But hey you knew what I was on about...

Yeah, from has been said I would say about once a month too... This means I have to share my cordial with my budgies...? Geez... Nothing is safe from them... :rofl:

i thought dutch and danish were two different varieties, this site reckon they are the same an there are only two types of Pieds...??? Fallow with pink eyes...? Are you kidding me... :rofl: There plum not pink...

Call her Thumber as she thumbing/humping something... And your daughter wont no the secret reason she is called thumber... :rofl:

Thanks Kaz, I think I have read it but I will double check... :rofl:

I want whatever their on... :rofl:

Meat eating budgies... Yep it is true... I have had the same thing happen to me aswell... Kaz, can't we give our budgies well cook chicken to eat...? I'm sure I read somewhere some people do that...

I'm sorry to here this... :rofl: I don't believe you did anything wrong... As a breeder myself of show budgies, we always aim to have more hens than cocks... But hens will be hens and from the sounds of it, they were just not in the mood for each other and the fight ended badly... Just keep an eye out of the others hens and cocks too and make sure no one else is hurt or gets hurt... I'm sure wee all know how you feel... ...

Sham...Wow...! Hold 12 times it weight in water... :rofl:

Thanks for that Nubbly... A great post for all to read... I have been practicing my despotting skills, getting there, I've done some well others I got wrong feathers... Opps...! It can take me up to an hour to despot, as if I am not sure on what feathers i should pull next I put the bird back in a showcage to settle down again... Before having another go... I like the bucket idea, I think I will change that to suit me...

Not broccoli... Chemicals are used on it to keep it fresher... Beware...

Silverbeet, corn, carrot (grated) and beetroot (grated or finely sliced) are some vegs people on here give their birds...
