Liv and children are winging their way home with their budgies also on board............I gave Liv some extras too so she had quite a few in their transport box. Birds looked happy and stress free despite a searing hot day here today

You will have to wait until tomorrow I think

you think Kaz?? Nah not Liv, She's a dedicated member of this forum... she wouldn't let the picaholics like me down... not in a million years

Out of luck JB.............travelling birdies will need food and water and rest when they get home after teatime.......tomorrow I am sure you will see some pictures.

tht is very true kaz they will... do you know how heavy the travel box was with all the birds in?

They said it was around 4 kilos which if that was true means we weighed it wrong at the house here or they weighed it wrong

how much did you think it weighed??

:hug: how much did you think it weighed??

Who knows.....its hot and my brain is fried....

Apparently Liv arrived home with 19 new budgies....we went to the bird shop this morning. They were busy so I was allowed to go in the flights and catch up our birds to look at.....they know me there. I got a sky opaline hen and I really liked a grey green opaline cock I saw there...but he was red ring 2003. I mentioned this to the shop owner and he said I could have him for free, so he came home with me. He was trying to chat up the girls in the cage on the way home too, so maybe there's life in the old boy yet. Liv got a couple of nice blue birds :laughter:

Thanks for keeping everyone updated Kaz. It has been a wonderful holiday and I am so happy with all the birds. They all made it home safe and they dont look too stressed considering the day they have had.

Photos will come in the next few days - Promise :laughter:

Sounds like you picked up some great birds on your trip Liv. I look forward to seeing the pics... and of course reading the threads about your future breeding with them :laughter:

Photos Coming as fast as photo bucket uploads them :question:

:question: Isn't it always to slow when you want them fast...

Here they are,

I snuck in this afternoon and took some snaps of them while they were taking their naps. I still haven't taken all of them, and the photos don't show them at their best as they are not in a show cage (still making it up), but it gives you picholics and idea of what came home with me :yes:
