Your budgies don't eat them? :bluebudgie: WOW!!! I get Trill seed bells.

No probs, glad i could help! :bluebudgie:

I think he was saying not to feed them too often.

Let your birdy settle in before handling her anymore. As she's an adult she's probab;y had a couple of homes before you got her and the change will be really stressful!

You could try partially covering his cage (just the top and sides) to dim the light and possibly relax him. He sounds like he needs some time to get over the shock caused by treatment. It good that he isn't afraid of your hand being in the cage. He probably hangs out on the top back perch because it is high and furthest away from everything. :bluebudgie:

Here's a whole topic about it: http://www.daves-forums.co.uk/bbc/index.php?showtopic=2383

Well i don't believe that. Surely if you got a seed bell of a reputable (is that the word i'm looking for?) brand name in wouldn't have any bad ingredients in it!

Common colds aren't transmitable (sp?) between humans and budgies.

Is the boy and the hen mates??? They do pair up for breeding and the male feeds his mate during the time that the hen is in the nest box. And don't worry about asking questions!!! That's what the forums are here for!

I'm sure Sparky has some good things about him!!! His name is good!

It's really good that you're waiting till you're birds are old enough and are doing all the research you can!!! It's really good to hear about people who want to do things properly!!! If you're just looking for general information then have a look at the breeding forums. There is tons of information. If you have a specific question then post it here. There are heaps of people who can help you! Welcome to the forums.

You can expect up to about 10 eggs but they don't usually all hatch. Eggs are layed every second day and hatch in the same order after 18 days. If the eggs hatch then you should just leave them with mum.

Kangaroos wouldn't be as bad as cows or something!

I give my budgies eucalypt leaves. Don't know what species or anything. I just pick tham off the tree in the backyard and wash them first. My budgies love them!!

I think some budgies are just harder to entertain than others!

Can you get a picture of that??? Sounds soooo cute!!!

Great choice!!! Very pretty budgie...

I think you need to update the number of budgies you keep.

How picky!!! Blinkie loves playing anywhere there is a toy!!!

He might like the ones with bells in it!!!

Ahah.....do i spy Agro and wife????

I haven't seen if Blinkie will chase them..... :mellow: I will try that!

Yeah, my other birds prefer the hanging ones too. Blinkie is the only bird i've ever had that actually just likes rolling them around!

YAY!!! Post pictures when you're done!!!

The squares are small. It's like mini chicken wire!!! I don't think that type of wire looks very nice though and the metal could have traces of poison on.
