Posted November 11, 200816 yr I have 6 baby budgies between two large cages, the new ones that I mentioned in "My New Pastel Flock" topic. http://forums.budgiebreeders.asn.au/index....showtopic=22908 I have three girls and three boys, the lutino cock (9 or so weeks old) is feeding and getting amorous with the yf cobalt spangle hen (3 months old) and whoever I put with them is picked on. Should I just seperate and have 3 hens in one cage and 3 cocks in the other? Is the noise from the amorous breeders in the same room encouraging them. These bubs will be at least another 10 months older before I will even consider them breeding and there is no where for a nest either. All advice appreciated, I have joined a Christmas Choir with the kids so I wont see replies till later. Thanks in advance!
November 11, 200816 yr Romantic little souls arent they If there is nowhere for egglaying and the seed dishes are kept small you should be fine. Segregating the sexes of course will help. Bear in mind budgies do experiment with budgie bonking and often at ages that surprise us. Mostly its just recreational budgie sex and means little. Your choice. PS very observant of you to pick up on the behaviour Edited November 11, 200816 yr by KAZ

PS very observant of you to pick up on the behaviour Oh they are so cute it is hard to break it all up! They are now officially "seperated". I think the Albino T.C.B. pairing is going well as there is some different behavior today on both parts. I haven't been home much today but from what I can see he isn't hassling as much, he is singing a lot and she is sort of sitting with her wings down a bit and away from her body? Well off to the Chrissy Choir now...they asked for more male voices and I wonder if my 10 year old brother counts! Ha ha!
