Posted April 4, 200817 yr Heya , okay I am thinking that this will happen to me the best Blonde question asked here .... With the English ( show Budgies) the feathers that around their mouths are they meant to be bushy too.... I noticed today that Prince's feathers are 1/2 covering his beak because they are long. Is this normal. He his feeding both himself, Gypsy and their foster child fine and doesn't seem to be affecting him ... Also Snowman 1/2 English ( if you can actually have that ) Albino Cock he is the same but only slight ..
April 4, 200817 yr Neat, it doesn't worry them at all. The exhibition budgies have a bushier and longer mask than their smaller pet type cousins. Feathers.

April 5, 200817 yr Size and Feather quality Ahhhh, thanks, bigger being better I assume... Edited April 5, 200817 yr by birdluv fixed quote

April 5, 200817 yr I think they have a different shape! I noticed that from Dottie and my others.also Dottie has thinner head feathers above her cere. just my observations! ♥Indz Interesting.....is there any way to breed for show birds? Or do they just pop up unexpectedly here and there?
April 5, 200817 yr No, they are breed/bread ? Anyway yes you can only breed show types together and not with pet types Edited April 5, 200817 yr by Indz♥
April 5, 200817 yr Anyway yes you can only breed show types together and not with pet types Thats actually incorrect. Show type will breed with pet types and vice versa...the size makes no difference. I think they have a different shape! I noticed that from Dottie and my others.also Dottie has thinner head feathers above her cere.just my observations!♥IndzInteresting.....is there any way to breed for show birds? Or do they just pop up unexpectedly here and there?You have to have a pair of show type and size birds to get show type and size chicks
April 5, 200817 yr I know that you can breed them together what I meant was if you want to get better show birds it would be best to breed them with OTHERR show birds ♥Indz

Thanks for the visual, Neat: Yes, I see what you all are saying now. Pouffy 'doo' (I'm sure there is a much more technical term for this!) and gorgeous feathers
