finally someone else that has that [problem, how does this occur? if their bum is facing down how does it end up horizantally projected onto the wall i only get 2 or 3 every month , but how??

i went there !! its a great zoo.. infact probably the best ive been to it is very animal friendly, that is it provides well for the animals care and allows quite large paddocks opposed to enclosures for the animals to roam, like in the wild did you ride a bicycle around the zoo dave?? i did it was so much fun!, when do you ever get to ride a bike around a zoo? i guess its sort of like a national park, with a zoo in it you could say, they animalks are spread far apart, i dont know if i could have walked around it, its like a safari, but the animalks are contained would be the best way to put it glad you had a great time dave!

i have provided a buffet of veg but all mine eat are CORN! they must like the sweetness

what a beautiful colour!!!! i have never seen such a delicatley soft purplein a budgie congrats KAZ she is so pretty, cant wait to see her grow up you will have to keep us updated

oooh what a special bub you must be glad you got one blue out of the nest so if its violet and greywing does that mean it can produce a lovely new colour! nemly lavender! as the violet will appear purplky but the greywing will dilute it to make a powdery purple blue or LAVENDER that is really cool, you will have to try and get that damn camera to show up that violet! cant wait for more pictures

good pet choice! and welcome welcome babygumnut it will be very exciting when you get to pick your little budgie it always is for me well budgie care is pretty easy, compared to many oters pets you just provide a home, shelter, food (seed and maybe some veg), and water! and lots of love and care which im sure your kids will doo! goodluck and let us know what you get, maybe post a picture or two! alpaca-boy

okay cool, thanks Kaz so just sunflower seeds, and rolled oats?

THANKS KAZ !!! I THINK IT TURNDE OUT PRETTY GOOD TOO, IF I DO SAY SO MYSELF BUT SILLY ME USED A REALLY THICK OLD COAT HANGER THAT WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO BEND, SO I HAD TO GET OUT THE HAMMER! LOL AND THEN ONCE I SHAPED IT I REALISED I COULDNT GET THE BEEDS AROUND THE CORNERS! AHHH not you silly.. the computer, i tried to copy it and when it comes up in my folder it appears as a squished line?? i think there must be some prottection on your photobucket pics that doesnt let people copy them?

Hi all, my budgies are looking quite skinny at the moment and i weighed them alfalfa is 32g mortimer is 35g is this a bad weight for a budgie should i be worried they just look really skinny at the moment skinnier than usual so i was wondering what foods i can feed them to make them gain some weight??? other then the usual seed mix i feed them.

okay i finally got around to making that swing!! here it is ... and dont worry the wood beads are non toxic, the packet said so it took a while for them to want to try it out though. but for some reason mortimer doesnt like swings he never never goes on them ... i think maybe it is because alfalfa thinks she is queen of the swing and wont let him on

i love this little dilute... cutie

nice aviary!! i like te driftwood kaz very australiana with the budgies on it!

i love your normals!!!! im in love with normals at the moment there is just something about them that seems natural they just look right! clean clear bodies and markings and a beautiful chest colour! this blue looks like a nice one, except cant see his face and is that a clearbody down the bottom, im a fan of them too

oh ratzy ...what did you feed your birds to make them fat?? as two of mine are particularlry skinny atm and i wanted to fatten them up is it the seed mix that made them gain weight or the fruits?

THEY WERENT THAST HUNGRY IN THE FIRST 2 BUT THE LITTLE ONES GOT HUNGRY IN THE THIRD! they are all very pretty ratzy, is that thimble? he looks a bit blue now! did he change colour in his moult? di you keep dude or the green tailed one? did the green tail have a name? as i rememebr lexi, thimble, and dude

aww they are all very pretty now they have grown up! did you get rid of one of them ratzy?? which ones did you keep i thought lexi was a sky blue? cant wait to see them at dinner time!

awww they are really cute!! was there only 2 in the clutch? they are nice, anymore pictures?? !! :fear

awwww what a lovely story!! the things some kids come up with sometimes! when i was little i, about 5 i asked my mum... "mum were you alive when the dinosaurs were around?" :fear its slightly offensive, but i didnt know any better! at the time i was crazy abut dinosaurs but i really think that a great story, and now you have a mug so you will never forget i like it when you can look at an object/ possesssion and it has astory behind it, it means so much more then

cool!! from what everyones said we like the 1 dark factor and no dark factor birds so i guess the more vibrantly coloured budgies :laughter: and from the results it is also indicated that the ideal bird would be... a cobalt ! possibly with violet (this has the most popularity) and it seems to be that blue based are more popular than green, interesting but of course this does not reflect everyones favourite!

PICTURE UPDATE FOR BANJO: He is doing well, training him is a bit slow, but i have to say havnt really put much work into that yet, ut holidays have started so will be sure to spend more time with him!! he likes to hide under my bed and behind the photoframes ??? im not sure why ? PS: do we all still say he is a mauve??

hello everyone! i thought it might be really cool to see what others love best when it comes to budgie base colours! i know from personal experience that there is always one or two colours which always take your fancy! there is always that colour which you come back to for me i love mauves and dark greens i love the richness of the dark green and the ethereal beauty of the mauves so what is your favourite?

i love love love violets, just a beautiful colour i like dean would love to see a dark green violet i also like recessive pieds or when dominant pieds have a straight and distinct separation of colour but i actually prefer just the NORMAL standard budgie so just the normal face, body and wing markings, with a beautiful full coloured plumage on their front!! if i could i would have an aviary full of normals of every colour sky, cobalt, mauve, light green, dark green, olive, and normal violet so as to have a standard appearance, but a beautiful selection and palet of colours!

lumina is just beautiful, i love her shade of green! cute babies

what a cute budgie !!!! :what: such beautiful and delicate markings! what type of budgie is he? cinnamon clearbody?

very good i cant wait to see whats next!! :what:
