your vet sounds very fair helpful and caring and at least its not one of those contagious dieseases i cant even pronounce or heard of i hope your bird goes well did he give some ointment for the eye?

so sorry to hear about your birds it sounds like some sort of poision if the quail died to hard to say without other information like was they mauled or anything again sorry to hear

skyblue spangle none of my greywings are like him but my spangles are the wings are more spangle looking than any greywing i have but i do have a spangle just like him

thank you gb i think this might be better than marbles i couldnt find fake eggs at the shop combined with lots of calcium blocks when i get them and the cuttlefish :rip: Nice idea with the hot sauce... be sure to have PLENTY of water available :rofl: you do put hot sauce in then its not a joke is it mattdog makeing me worried You can persist and follow Ikon's advice .... personally I don't have any time for egg eaters and they go straight to the Retirement Village thank you renee im going to try all things and if he touchs another one she should lay again soon he will be the fittest youngest bird retired i have

thank you for the reply ikon i went to the shop they didnt hear of eggs but told me to put marbles in ? only a small shop they also didnt have calcium blocks can you believe it where do i get those from other than a pet shop its one thing ive never used and dont know about i do have cuttlefish drying out and in the cages now so thats good

hi today i was in cleaning out my breeding boxes and doing all the jobs and while i was doing this some other birds had flew through instead of shooing them straight out i left them talking to a pair of birds locked up because i was really busy they wouldnt leave them alone so i finally chased them back into the other aviary through the door when i had done this the hen in the box was going crook the cock bird was in the box as well so i got it down and the little so and so had egg all over his face and three eggs smashed i havent bred either of them before and they seemed to be going great all the usual things WILL HE KEEP DOING this is he any good to breed from or do i retire him hes 2 i have been disturbing my birds more latley and have more birds down than what i was going to not all full though but wondered if all the placeing of birds ect had anything to do with it and now its settled back down he will be fine this is my first egg eater are they missing anything in diet or medicine theres oats in box and millet thanks in advance

moneys not everything we love our birds and learning things we sometimes dont want to hear can only benifit them

If that's what you believe.. actually 450 is my last count. that was 3 months ago. anyways thanks a lot for the comments. kaz seems to be on right track with saying you would lose track of age then if you are not sure of how many you have as well how would you keep track of ages if amount not right photos were good enough for me to see you had lovebirds

fischer lovebirds i thought so unless you had a rarer budgie than what ive seen i think libby might be like me going on your pieds they look young to me as well saw the babies you refering to but not them knew that was a family mainly the pieds in my case

hi wow lot of birds cages do you have other types of birds the third photo down looks like lovebirds in it or something they look like they have red or orange necks heads are they all budgies just curious

thank you has cleared that up for me now no nubbly the bird is not split for lacewing just throws green

hi i was wondering if you put a cinnamon cock bird that is green with a lacewing yellow hen would they throw lacewings of any sex at all i know you get lacewings the other way round eg lacewing cock to hen but was wondering if you would be able to this way being that there is no cockbird available thank you

i think the bird in front is a hen and the one at the back a boy

this is my greywing opaline greywhite baby im not sure they look similar now ive found my photo though !!

do you think the grey one could be like the greywing opaline greywhites variety

thank you very much nubbly i will do that tomorrow and much appreciated

hi thank you

yes my flock has a lot of greywing types my favorite are the blues but see some ive put up in the sale section im not sure about the clearbodies what are they i just put together what i think might throw nice babies so i probably did but can i just say the birds colour is so much like the lacewing in real life brighter than photo they look like twins exept the eyes photo is not good i have some very nice coloured texas without colours running if thats the right word well i think so anyway and i also have some poor coloured ones there is two of those on the add too i do not breed them with anything other than the same the birds i know for sure what they are i dont pair up to diffrent and now that im learning what linked and recessive pairing types ect wouldnt do that either is it a bad thing to do i just realized you mean texas clearbodies well i can tell you they most definly donot go near my greywings of any sort i breed them pure getting brighter coloured birds so its still a mystry unless they mated in the flight with something and then ive put them in the breeding cage thank you for help nubbly

hi bk i have some birds from barb and john fisher too they great when you put them up ill be interested in seeing them

Ino/Lutinos have red eyes when they hatch, they are very apparent even before the chick opens it's eyes, they don't change down the road expect when the iris ring begins to show around the 4-6 month mark. Bird that are one color are either Dark Eyed Clears (they will have no visible iris ring, the cere stays pink in the males) and then there are your Double Factor Spangles (they do develop visible iris rings and the male cere will turn blue). ta elly thats this guy then
