This is a very interesting read. Animals inbreed in the wild all the time. In the animal kingdom it all seems pretty normal.

Popcorn looks very cute. But they grow up so fast

Sounds like you have a plan, good to here

Great door, well done. I have the same wire cages and have done the same as splat. Didn't know you could do that Kaz, silly me lol.

Come on... you did not spend big at Wynnum. Thought you were saving up for this one? I'm hoping that your going, so you can do the biding for me Just remember my budget of $150 how many birds do you think I'll get

Welcome aboard. Go the spangles!

Welcome Clint.

Good info, and they have free access to this forum, and we supply them with photos of our birds and info of where we live. Just food for thought.

Super birds, well out of my league.

Welcome aboard.

Hi Amy, I live not far from you, Maleny. I'm sure you would have picked up some nice birds from the club president. Welcome aboard. Geoff

Nice work Kochy, it's looking great. How many birds do you think you will be able to fit in that set-up?

Welcome aboard Taz. Congrats on your lacewing and it's great to hear that your son has found a hobby he can enjoy.

Thats a lovely photo. I wish my teeth looked that good lol. I think you mean you molt in that dress not mount

Maybe 20 to 30. I think it will make a great aviary, nice one

Nice to meet you Dave, sorry we didn't have much time to talk mate. There most expensive bird sold for $3200 by Bob Smith and it was a Opaline Grey Green hen and I don't no who bought it. Ian Hunters birds were very nice and they also sold for top dollar, with one going for $1700. One of Garry Gazzards sold for $2500 and there were heaps more that sold for over $1000. There were no bargains to be found. I bided on about 25 birds out of a 172 and came home with nothing, my budget was around the $250 mark for a bird. Yes I'm disappointed and I would really like to tell you what I really think @#$% but I won't But I will say that I will not be going again to this auction and there are certain vendors that I will never buy birds off. The auction was very well run and the club did a great job. Keep it real!

I highly recommend Trill for budgies it has vitamins and minerals added + shell grit.

All the best GB, and take care of your self. I for one have enjoyed your honesty and knowledge that you have shared with others. See you back here soon. Geoff

Mate you have some very good quality birds there, well done.

I like the idea of bedroom 6 for the breeding room, I'm sure you no a way that will make him change his mind, my wife does And wow what a big house, congrats to the both of you.

Sounds promising, all the best with those eggs

I don't breed during winter because I believe it puts to much stress on the hens. Plus there's more chance of a hen getting egg bound. But I do know of breeders with insulated bird rooms who breed all year round and from memory Henry George is one of them.

I'm a big fan of yellow face greys and he looks nice.

Just use the ivermectin and do twice a year. I do my birds before putting them down to breed, just two drops on the back of the neck. I have read that over treatment can cause infertility, and I do not like to over medicate my birds.

Welcome aboard Mark.
