Bea

I want snow!!! Cool!!! I would honestly never have thought of growing dandylions as they are a weed. But i guess it would be nice to have a regular supply! What if you're little budgies got into the dandylion farm??? You would have some chubby budgies on your hands!!!

Yeah, i used to be really good at trimming beaks and claws but haven't done it for ages and am way too scared to try. I give my birdies cuttle fish for their beaks and if they ever really needed something trimmed i would take them to a professional!!!

Hi Dutchman, i was just wondering how the chicks were going??? you haven't updated for several days... I'm a bit impatient but i would love to see some pictures if you've got that working.

I really think my addiction to this site is beyond my control. I meant to not go overboard today but apparently i have still done like 85 posts in 24 hours. *sigh* i guess you guys will just have to put up with me!

Well.... that was confusing...

Having his beak trimmed shouldn't hurt if it's done properly. It's just like us trimming our fingernails!!! A regular vet should be able to do something simpla like trim a beak no probs. I take my birds to just a regular vet unless they look to have something really wrong with them.

Hey that's pretty cool!!!How many budgies could be poked in that for transportation??? I still don't think i would put my budgie wudgies through the stress of long distance travel.

They could also decide on a mass poop while you're in there!!! I really think i wouldn't put my hair in that kind of danger!!! It freaks me out enough when i have to walk under a tree packed full with cocky's and galahs!!! :(Laughing out loud):

:fear :fear :fear I am amazed!!!! You do realise the danger you're in every time you enter the aviary??!! They could gang up and dive bomb you!!! :(Laughing out loud): :bluebudgie: :bluebudgie: :bluebudgie:

How many birdies would you have, just approximately??? You said that you had like 200 in the smaller aviary so what about the massive one????

I am just looking on google for you. Here is a chart to work out the due dates of eggs... http://freespace.virgin.net/dr.joinery/Budgie_Table.htm And here are some downloadable databases for budgie breeding. Don't know if they're any good... http://www.canadiancontent.net/dir/Top/Sho...Software/Birds/ Hope this helps!

I imagine cabbage would be like lettuce and celery leaves. They're really water based and too much would give your birds the runs!

Righto...i'm in Canberra so we get about 40C max.

But the cage is massive. There is more than enough sideways space i think.

I use the free toothbrushes we get from the dentist!!! They're very good for reaching into corners!!!

I wouldn't have imagined the truama's a little bit of lippy could cause either!!! :(Laughing out loud):

I prevent this by separating them into the pairs i want during breeding time. I do however get brother - sister interest.

Oh my gosh, i can't imagine anything worse than losing 9 birds at once.

Agro could keep burgulars away!!! Maybe you should loan him out as a smoochy lady deterent!!!

I hate spinach!!!! I supose Blinkie will just have to miss out on that particular "vegetable"

I ignore Blinkie when he bites. It's easy though cause his hardest bite is really weeny!!! He thinks he's all tough!!!

So how many budgies had names before you stopped naming them???

You can get aviarys of all different sizes. There are heaps of designs for juniors which aren't big. They're really nicely sized!

45 is really hot... do you live in a desert or something? :(Laughing out loud):

First time i bred was with a single pair and a modified shoe box as the nesting box. I got 2 healthy and happy babies!!!
