They are lovely photos Kaz. Could you please tell me what the plate of bread is, is it soaked in something or just plain bread. Our birds love the fruit and vegies but I haven't tried bread.

Your birds eat better than l do! :blush:

We use 5 seed or heavy multigrain wholemeal bread. Soak it in warm water with their vitamins added. Sometimes it has a couple of tablespoons of Budgie Breeder mix in it and sometimes a couple of tablespoons of Insectivore Rearing mix :)

We have had a lot of trouble with our original pair of canaries Paul. Now we have a few more and the pairing is different we seem to be having our first "almost" success :)

excellent, I love the finches they are gorgeous :)

Budgies are a walk in the park…compared with Canaries Paul. I think the problem is that over time breeders have fostered & hand reared so many that the problem is that you get parents that just sit there & let them starve. Often they are so much work & still you have failure, Budgies are much more rewarding. I hope breeders don't make the same mistake with them. My thoughts are its better to loose a few young than raise birds that are not capable of raising their own young. It may be sad for the few birds, but a whole lot better for the fancy.

 

I agree with you Missy, not only do their birds eat better than mine, they eat better than me even…Nice pics Kaz, you have some Red Factor Canaries also do you?

Red factor means they can be fed colouring food to enrich the colour in the feathers (red food turns them redder)

:D I love frogs :)

:) Sadly my camera and limited photography skills lack so you can't even tell they are froggies, there are 2 jade ones and 1 sterling steel one and I just stuck a fake plant in the big guy as I have yet to put in a real plant, but I DO LOVE frogs! :)

Hey Kaz

 

Is that multigrain bread????

Yes...I use wholemeal or rye bread with lots of extra grains added. Like a 5 seed bread of wholemeal :)
