Hey Ian I really like your aviary. Not to mention the birds inside :)

Well done.

Ian, How many birds are currently in the cage? Are any tiels still in the cage with the budgies? What about the lorikeet?

 

I would remove the nesting boxes because theirs not enough room in the cage for breeding 3 sets of budgies + tiels. Nesting boxes in colony style breeding should be ATLEAST 1 foot apart, all same height and same style. Otherwise they will fight.

I have to agree with Pearce about the nesting boxes in that kind of space I am afraid :)

there are 6 in that avery.. the wieros are in another avery and the lorikeet is in its own cage, ill remove the nesting boxes today

 

cheers

:gday: Ian and :( your birds look lovely and they are a ray of colour :)
