Posted April 3, 200817 yr okay ... So from my previous post re: mites I havere done the breeders avairy ..... Treated the spare nestboxes with COOPEX ... I striped the avairy of all perches feeding and water dishes this included Cuttlebones, Mineral Block and Chew toys ...... Vaced all excess stuff from floor of avairy and I washed the whole avairy down in Hot water ( Next time i will wear gloves) ..... As my base is timber / wood i scraped all the doo doo's off as per bi weekly cleaning routine ..... and treated the base and walls with the Mist of coopex ...... Went in search of new perches ..... ( Climed trees like a monkey *glad i don't have neighbours ....... washed and sun dried all new perches and gum leaves ...... and went on yet another hunt to have a climbing perch ... ( goes from floor too almost the top found this rather useful for the fledglings) so that got the wash down and sun dried treatment too ..... Replaced the nest boxes and materials ..... Only to find ( 6 EGGS ) in Dave's birds ( he named it that ) nestbox ...... she has pulled sooo many chest feathers and as looking rather bauld ..... Replaced all seed and water dishes cuttlebone and mineral blocks ...... ..... So that was it .... Not happy that my batteries were dead in the camera thought : ( THE ONLY THING I AM WAITING FOR IS THEM TO NOT GO BACK TO NORMAL DUTIES ..... as it was a huge make over ....... so i will be watching them very closley ......
