  1. Your bird in the profile photo is beautiful! I'm not sure if her partner feeds her, I haven't seen him do it I only ever see her in the food dish eating away by herself lol she's an ugly little odd ball at the moment but she's won a place in my heart, I caught her last night in the dark as she's less spooky in the dark and she let me trim in no problems, she seems happier today And other news is I went in to check them tonight and a second chick was in the process of hatching
  2. Yes she does look a bit sad, all the new ones do they seem to be picking up a fair bit now tho.
  3. Thanks. It is possible to seperate them, my four pairs are already on eggs ( 2 pairs in each avairy) I'm just thinking about my new ones, they are in quarantine at the moment
  4. Can someone confirm the sex of these two pleasssseeee
  5. How to you plan pairs? I put my 8 birds in an avairy, waiting for them to pair up then moved them. I have a cock bird I really like (below) And would like to pair him with a hen ( would love suggestions as to which colour hen) that w That would produce chicks that have colouring like him So my question is how to I get the two I want to bond? As with my previous pairs they picked their own mates
  6. I'm avairy breeding at the moment, so far so good but I have two pairs per avairy. One avairy is 11 x 6 the other is 5 x 7 they both have 6 nest box's per avairy ( 2 pairs & 6 boxes) my chicks are only starting to hatch though so I may run into problems, if I do I will be removing the boxes and just having birds to look at
  7. Thankyou so much, very helpful much appreciated will check out your thread now I have a all white hen I picked up the other day but she has a deformed beak so I don't think I will breed from her, which is sad cos if I paired them i could get chicks like yours? I have photos of her in the mutation section

    Speaking of canaries & finches lol Can anyone tell me what this one is? My favourite canary the day I got him, they all had overgrown nails and some had scaley foot which is been treated Plum heads
  9. I just went in to take a quick photo & it looks like she does actually have light green on her feathers ? Also I have 3 avairys. One is approx 6 x 11 Other is a suspended avairy about 3 x 5 x 7 And a smaller square one prob 5 x 5 How many birds could these house without over crowding? This one has 4 budgies in it This one had 4 also plus one chick hatched yesterday This one no longer has finches it has the 5 new ones
  10. Love the goldenface? i would love an avairy full of them!
  11. Hi thanks for the replies, The new birds are in their own avairy ( there are 3 avairies photo'd here lol ) I live in the sticks & our local vet is useless he won't even look at birds, I'll get a decent photo of her today in the light so you can see her beak clearly, it's the bottom one its grown up & out on an angle
  12. Hi everyone I'm going to post some photos and would love for people to tell me what colours or types my budgies are, I've spent hours googling but its confusing me. Thanks! This girl has a deformed beak. I picked up 5 budgies yesterday this girl was in a pair, I pointed it out to the breeder, he said it doesn't affect her & just gave her too me, she can eat well but I'm very sad for her, I read I can clip her beak to help, should I or should I put her down? She's all white the green is reflection from the avairy yellow cock above is dad to the chick & eggs this hen is sitting on, what possible colours will chicks be? would love to know what this guy is he is all colors and my favourite
  13. This is dad This hen is on four eggs And this is the dad Also on eggs This is dad
  14. Hi all, I'm new to budgie breeding, today I checked a nest box where mumma budgie has been sitting on four eggs, there was one freshly hatched egg. Once I figure out how to upload photos I'll put some up. Will be posting heaps for help and info, great forum Can someone tell me what colour / type mum is?
