Posted June 7, 200619 yr mY new budgies please help i serously need help with names this is my small 1 month female and here is the male about 4 months
June 7, 200619 yr How come your new budgie is in the cage you showed us just yesterday ? The one you had two budgies in with a nesting box on this posting http://forums.budgiebreeders.asn.au/index....topic=10374&hl= and this cage http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/5543/dsc012343dk.jpg Edited June 7, 200619 yr by budgiebird
June 7, 200619 yr okey what i did was i had a 1 yr old male nd a 11 month old female i have those in a breeders cage nd i put those in the cage
June 7, 200619 yr Yesterday the only other two budgies you had were..... QUOTING YOU Okey well right now my male is 1 year and my female is about 7 months and the new budgies i would want to purchase are bout 5 months. You were advised, by helpful people, that they were too young to breed and now you have put them in a breeding cage together ? Also, you said you were taking out the nesting box. If indeed you had a breeder cage all along why then did you have two budgies in the cage pictured with a nesting box crammed into the bottom of it ? I believe you now have four budgies in that cage together and still have the nesting box. No wonder noone wants to give you advice. Take some time and think of another excuse. Really, if you want people's help here for any reason and we are a friendly lot, please be truthful so we can advise. Surely a Godsdrummer can tell the Gods truth. People dont like going out of their way to give advice when someone is neither truthful or do they listen to the good advice. Edited June 7, 200619 yr by budgiebird
June 7, 200619 yr tday when i purchased my budgis i got the cage with them and that is why your new budgies are in your initial cage and now you have three cages....one with the young breeding birds in it. The one you already had that the new budgies are in and a new cage that has noone in ??? Your previous statement okey what i did was i had a 1 yr old male nd a 11 month old female i have those in a breeders cage nd i put those in the cage Edited June 7, 200619 yr by budgiebird
June 7, 200619 yr Where did the 11 month old female come from? Just as long as your new birds are not in with your original birds. If you want reason's for quarintine, just ask Karen about what happened to her birds when she didn't quarintine.
June 7, 200619 yr Where did the 11 month old female come from?Just as long as your new birds are not in with your original birds. If you want reason's for quarintine, just ask Karen about what happened to her birds when she didn't quarintine. The eleven month old was just seven months old yesterday The new birds are in the cage he always had with two other birds in it.
June 7, 200619 yr oh this is so confusing when i posted a comment about keeping 4 budgies with a nesting box u guys said i couldnt because they were young so what i did was my oldest budgies which i purchased along time ago those are in a breeding cage and my new budgies i purchased yesterday are in my original cage where the nest box used to be but i removed it .
June 7, 200619 yr oh this is so confusing when i posted a comment about keeping 4 budgies with a nesting box u guys said i couldnt because they were young so what i did was my oldest budgies which i purchased along time ago those are in a breeding cage and my new budgies i purchased yesterday are in my original cage where the nest box used to be but i removed it . What was actually pointed out to you in a helpful manner and with concern for your budgies, was that you could not immediately put your intended two new budgie purchase in straight away with your existing two budgies in their cage without a quarantine period in a separate cage. You responded, I believe by telling us the cage was plenty big enough and showed us pictures of a cage with a nesting box in it. You told us the only two budgies you already owned were 1 year old for one of them and the other was 7 months. A few people tried to tell you this was too young to breed your budgies and was not advisable. Also you were advised that four budgies in a smallish cage with one breeding box was also not appropriate. Reasons being, territorial disputes , fights over breeding box, etc. You eventually said you would take the breeding box out. Next you show us your new budgies asking for help naming them, and photos showing one of them in your cage that housed your first two budgies. A close up shot that doesnt show what other budgies are still in the cage. When asked why they were in that cage you eventually said that you bought another cage when you bought the new budgies and that was the cage. Looks identical if thats the case, even the same position for the swings and perches. You also said that you put the 7 month old and 1 year old budgie in a separate breeding cage so the new budgies could have this cage. Amazingly the 7 month old budgie has now turned 11 months of age overnight according to you. So, if you bought a new cage with the new budgies like you said you did, why did you have to put the new budgies in the old cage and why are the two budgies that are too young, now in a breeding cage. Where is the new cage ? No wonder people get confused by your stories. We can try and help with advice and you can choose whether or not to take the advice offered. But we are not idiots. May I ask, how old you are ?
June 7, 200619 yr I am 16 years old. there is 2 pictures where my budgies are in now these are my old budgies these are the budgies i got yesterday Edited June 7, 200619 yr by godsdrummer209
June 7, 200619 yr to let you know that cage is too small for 2 budgies, especially if you are going to breed them. There is no room for them let along the babies. I am not going to try and figure out everything above. But what I suggest is that you get a bigger cage for your budgies first.
June 7, 200619 yr alright then i will take out the nest boxx and let all my budgies in my big cage and i wont breed them at all
June 7, 200619 yr haahahhaahahaha!!! Im 16 too! But seem to have more common sense (Laughing out loud) That cage! The black one! I wouldnt even put a fish in that if it were a fish tank! Little own TWO budgies, that are 'going' to breed! Are you nuts! Tehy are gorgeous colours by the way! I agree with you though, abotu not breeding, and all in 'big' cage which should still only have 2 in it... So, if i were you, id buy 2 breeding cages, make 2 breeding cages, buy an aviary for all of them, build an aviary for all of them Then it would be even better! Kirby
June 7, 200619 yr Why if you have the birds separated for quarentine do you have one cage on top of the other???? The cages should be in separate rooms. Please take the advise given to you.
June 7, 200619 yr Great point Peta! Also....That hen DEFIANETLY IS NOT 1 month old! Are you joking? (Laughing out loud). Shes at least 5-6weeks, probably 6 . . . Kirby
June 8, 200619 yr We obviously have a young man here who wants to breed his budgies any way he can at any age and in any cage with any other birds in it. Maybe he thinks he can make pocket money or something. He has picked up on the fact we have found him out about where the birds are by the photographs.... and has taken new photos to show us them separated. Then in a new posting we see them all together again. This is obviously a person that has a different idea of what truthfulness is. Why he comes on here and asks for help when he has no intention of taking ANY of the advice is beyond me. He says he will do what we say and then does the complete opposite. Godsdrummer, are you just coming on here to get everyone riled up or what !?
June 9, 200619 yr Have we upset you ? godsdrummer, are you there ?? Edited June 9, 200619 yr by Bubbles
June 10, 200619 yr Well he may be just a bit confused, because all the info we have given him has been in bit and pieces etc. okay First of all. Your new budgies. I happy to see them in a seperate cage from the others, that is good. First though, you should put the two cages in seperate rooms, this is so that if the babies are carrying any diseases they won't pass them on to your old budgies. You should keep them sperate for 1 month, (4weeks) in that time any diseases that they should be carrying will show and you can deal with it without the others getting infected. okay. Your second pair of budgies, your older pair are too young to breed at the moment. Both budgies in the pair must be at least 12 months old to start breeding. So take the nest box out. In 5 months time you can breed them, which should be their breeding season and you will have healthier chicks then too. In one months time after quarintine of your new budgies is over, you can introduce them to each other and keep them in one cage. In regards to breeding all your budgies when they are in the same cage. You can do this, but it is generally not advisable, because the hens will fight with each other, destroy each others eggs and chicks etc. So when you want to breed them you should breed them in seperate cages. This will make it safer for both mother and babies of each pair. I hope that helps.
June 10, 200619 yr Sailorwolf, on another topic by godsdrummer it clearly shows these budgies are all together not in a separate cage as Godsdrummer has tried to make us believe. He only gets confused when he tells tall tales. Edited June 10, 200619 yr by Bubbles
June 10, 200619 yr mY new budgies please help i serously need help with names this is my small 1 month female and here is the male about 4 months A 1 month old chick has not fledged properly. I don't fledge them Until 34 days old and then only to a nursary cage until they are 45 days old and I am sure that they can properly feed them selves. I don't let go a chick at 28 - 30 days. That is irresponcible for a breeder to do that.
