Well I thought I'd Share some pictures of two of my four budgie's eating there veggie's like all budgie's should. Because there yummy you just don't know unless you try right?

Bailey

Sky

 

And a few questions

1.How old is Sky do you think as Bailey is getting 'randy' as my brother puts it, and I was going to put a box in to put Sky at rest, so if they did end up with eggs theres the place for them.

2.This is George Jr and Bailey's Father is he a show type?

Jodie...budgie dont need a nestbox for a place to "rest" ...nestboxes are for breeding and to encourage breeding. If they are the right age and in the best condition and you have homes for the babies then by all means, breed by putting a nestbox in. BUT they dont need a nestbox for a place to sleep.

Bailey sure is a cute budgie...would be nice to have babies from that pair. Is Sky old enough ?

I dont know this is what she looked like when I bought her

And she has white iris rings just like Baileys and Bailey is 2 at christmas

Is she cobalt?

Hey can anyone help estimate how old Sky is for me as I'm resiting a nest box because of not knowing her age, so any acurate answer would be great

Thanks Jodie

So would you breed her then she is not in condition yet but when she is?

and is she a cobalt if you need picture's with out the flash i'll get some

If you have a good breeding cage you could try them now. Can you do some photos of the breeding cage and how you plan to set it up ?

The Red Circle is where the nest box would be placed

the blue circle's are where I have feed stationed

and the yellow are where water is placed

Any other segestions will help and I'm triying to buy more dishes or even a large feeder tube

What Is placed on the shelf with feed

the cage with out the circles and branches, Im also going to buy some rope perches and take out some of the branches

Your breeding set up looks great. Best of luck.

JoEL I think you have forgotten that Jodie's bird is cinnamon also which dilutes the body colour. It is not skyblue
