There has been no sign of him anywhere around,i think my little guys gone but i won't give up just yet.His little girlfriend is looking very sad and sitting onher own in the avairy so i hope he can hear all the birds and come back home.

Poor thing that looks painful :yes:

The rose bush the aphid was on

My son thinks he flew into a tree in our backyard,unfortunatley he is green so he will blend in well.I'll give him till tommorrow morning to see if he comes back then will do a letterbox drop. Hope i'm as lucky as you were Kaz.

I hope so Houman,out of all of my birds he's the only one willing to step up on my finger and be friendly.

You were kind enough to give this recipe,so i went to a bird supply place and was asking if they had some of the ingredients.He asked me what i was doing with them so i explained about your recipe and he procced to tell me off big time saying that Budgie Starter was enough and i would be providing incorrect amounts of vitamins/nutrients. but i still follow your recipie

My mum has a Corella x Galah she paid $600 for him, the guy where i get my budgies from has them every season.

I decided to place my semi-tamed birds into the avairy so they could get some decent excercise and then i could use there much bigger cage for the birds i got from Liv.Instead of catching them and placing them in a smaller cage for the transfer i lugged there cage into the aviary and released them. 3 out of the 5 have been in the avairy before so they were happy to fly out,but Feathers was a bit freaked out and i was talking to him to calm him down.My little girl came along and wanted in as well so stupid me opened the avairy door to take the cage out,and out flew my little boy I'm hoping he's hanging around but i can't see him.

I think Jimmy Banks,cause i know he's around tonight

A tree frog?

Thanks clearwing,i'll file that away for the day i start breeding my show budgies,i've just started out with pet types to gain abit of experience, before breeding my recent additions from Liv.

Thanks GB your a champ i think i have something like that laying around somewhere will have a look and give it a go tomorrow.Bye the way i think you did a brilliant job on your wind break.

Thanks Kaz

Thanks Kaz and Splat i knew it was a dumb question but i didn't know the answer and now i do.Like they say you learn something new everyday, mind you i learn about 10 new things everyday on this forum so thatnkyou everyone. Libby.

Hi Clearwing,just a quick possibly dumb question when you transfer the eggs do you transfer them to another pair that have eggs in the nest or a pair that are bonded with no eggs? And the cock running between the two hens,will the hens be raising the chicks on their own? thanks Libby

So GB can please answer my question Libby.

Hi GB just wondering what that white stuff is that you used on the ceiling above the birds head in this picture.We have had an extremely rainy day today and my aviary has leaked,so am looking for a safe product to block up the leaks.Thanks Libby

Hi Dave,sorry to hear about the loss of your hen. How are all the chicks doing.

Congratulations Robyn,he certainly is a pretty bird can't wait to see the chicks.

Hi Cranberry, i know you purchase you birds through a dealer as do i, can i please ask who you get them from?

Hi Dave,looks like Monster is turning into a show pony i hope he turns into a champion for you,the rest of the chicks look great,it only feels like yesterday they were little pink blobs.

Hey Dingo you have some very pretty budgies, hope the hatching goes well.

Wow Dave, i can't get over how grown up Monster is, he's still my Favorite by far :laughter:

Nubbyly i'm in love with your lacewings their beautiful,i wished i lived in W.A so i could check out your's and Kaz's birds.

for the experts
