November 4, 200717 yr Author Sorry Daz I was busy with family things this weekend :budgiedance: but I wasn't expecting to be ready for the Wynnum show. I'll have more with the correct rings this time and hopefully a cage or two 'borrowed' for the feb show :sad: I told family of the "Santa" name and was suggested Kris or Kringle as a replacement for Santa.
November 4, 200717 yr babies babies babies you got some pretty ones in there. Soooo cute, don't think I can say that often enough (Laughing out loud). I like the Santa name too, its cute... see cute again. I'd tell Scuttle but he just gives me blank looks and squeaks a bit. Oooh and if you end up having any birds in the Feb show I wanna come and see how they do :budgiedance:

The first clutch Oldest in cage 1 - sky blue normal Second in cage 1 - sky blue normal Third in cage 1 - M spangle sky blue Forth is a copy of three, but the shots of him didn't turn out. Youngest in cage 2 - green spangle Oldest in cage 2 - green green spangle Edited December 16, 200717 yr by Nerwen
December 17, 200717 yr Nerwen, I love the markings on those Spangles. The masks are looking good as well. They will be good to keep an eye one. .... I hope they are ringed?????
December 17, 200717 yr Author Yes Daz all from this clutch are ringed. I'm keeping the two spangles to see how they improve with age
January 29, 200817 yr Hey mate! Im just wondering who the parents were of baby from post #119? His spangling is SOOO PERFECT and I've heard of ways to pronounce them, so did you try to do that? Or he was just a lucky well marked bub?
