YaY I'm excited.. I have two breeding pairs separated in another aviary and have been keeping my fingers crossed for a few weeks now. One of the hens, a sky blue opaline has paired up with a little pied male and they have had babies before but she is the one that seemed to be squashing them with all her weight, so as yet she has had no succesful clutches. She is sitting on one solitary egg and it looks like its coming along as it should and if all goes right it should hatch towards the end of the week (give or take a day or two (Laughing out loud)).

And the other hen is my violet girl who hooked up with Mr Cobalt .. She is in breeding condition and he is very caring to her but he just didn't seem to understand the breeding part .. Anywayyyy.. I was out in the garden yesterday watching them and the violet hen seemed to be in a lil discomfort sitting on the perch, then before i could blink my eyes, out popped a little egg ...SMASH all over the ground I'm keeping my fingers crossed that she will have another soon and work out that the egg actually needs to go in the nesting box..

Last week I introduced 3 new little chicks into the aviary (parents are Apple, Munchy and Migs parents) so ill have to get some pictures of them to post later and its been a fair while since the inside trio had pictures posted so ill try get some of them too although they don't stay still for long enough so its really really hard :(Laughing out loud):

Just thought id share the antics of my aviary..

Cheers :beer:

Glad to hear that you are having fun Una. Will be nice to see the new babies. It's been ages since your last Apple and Munchy video, hint hint.

Ive just taken a video and ill post it later when i have a lil more time, you can hear all of them talking in it (Laughing out loud) and Munchy making his fart noises Mig sits in the background mostly beeping

How exciting. Keep us posted!! Thanks for the update.
