  2. GOod thanks, i put them in and they have been in for about a week but nothing has really happened. sorry i havent been on in a while i have exams at the moment
  3. hey i made one the other day and ill get pics up shortly
  4. yeah dont pay any more than $40 for them but also dont just buy the cheapest you are also looking for quality.
  5. okay ill do that.
  6. okay thanks,
  7. thats okay JB, ill probably put the hen in tomorrow and then the cock on friday.
  8. in my avairy i have a piece of dowel running the whole width of the avairy and then another one in the corner about 15cm long, that way they can fly from one to the other. also i was told that apple seeds are toxic, just aheads up.
  9. thats a great idea ill have a go at making them, where did you get the beeds, what shop
  10. thats a great idea KAZ, ill try and make some, however my avairy is sheet metal top so i cant hook it from there, i am a bit hesitant to drill a hole incase the noise freaks them out, does any one have any ideas on how els to hang it?
  11. im with Kaz looks grey green and i believe its ahen although could just be the lighting. anyway it is a lovely bird.
  12. both of them are nibbling at everything in the cage, they are chewing on anew ladder i bought for them today and on there perch soi believ they are ready.the male cant get enough of his vegies he eats alot of them and the female eats some to. i dont have anything currently in the water and i only wormed them i couple of weeks ago.
  13. i cleaned out the breeding cabinet and it looks like new, i also bought seed and water dispensors, how long till i should put in the pair i wish to breed
  14. yeah it is chipboard, is it okay to use disinfectant or is that harmful to budgies.
  15. hey Kaz, today i bought a breeding cabinet from Libby and i am going to clean it, should i use warm soapy water or disinfectant, or both, thanks.
  16. Pride replied to robyn's topic in Budgie Pictures
    great results robyn, i just love this chick:)
  17. Pride replied to hayle1983's topic in New to BBC
    hey hayle welcome, i only have 4 budgies aswel but more would be great, keep us posted about newcomers to your budgie family.
  18. okay cool, i have never talked with libby before,
  19. i was thinking of buying them at the place in parkwood where they are $20 not at the other one.
  20. i went to remove the infertile eggs and og the 4 that were there there was limited shell, did she eat the shell for calcium? Also the place that im playing tennis at is really close to the place that you told me was selling the cheap breeding cabinets, i might get the two singles!!! also i removed the breeding boxes from my avairy, also my cock scruff who is prides mate(i guess there mates even though the eggs were infertile) he still tries to preen her and stuff, will he still breed with another hen if i were to put them together,
  21. yeah i take out the seeds
  22. okay thanks for answering, rosies cere is slightly crusty and not dark brown, it is more of a dark tan colour. the male budgies i have their cere looks very similar to that one in the photo.
  23. Also what colour or characteristics would i need to breed one of the golden face ones with the blue body? i mean puff the purple one sitting on the yellow perch. if rosie is YF blue does that mean i could get some blue chicks? and lastly do you think that they are healthy enough for breeding condition. also is there an Faq that will teach me how to distinguish budgie colours and stuff, i have heard you talk about clearwing, cinnamon wings and pieds and stuff in other threads and i would like to know how to look at a budgie and tell this
  24. okay, judging from my pictures from previous pages, would you say that Rosie (yellow/green hen) and Puff (violet cock) are healthy enough to breed.
  25. okay thanks jimmy, i dont need to worry about it then. also do you know what offspring i would get with a violet cock and a yellow/green hen? hey Kaz will i need to buy a net or something to transfer birds from aviary to breeding cabinet and vice versa
