My New Budgies Are Improving.

Featured Replies

Posted

On Saturday i bought 7 budgies from a breeder who due to health reasons had not been able to care for them properly. 5 of them had scaly face, 3 had it that bad i could not tell if they were male or female. Yesterday the scaly face started to improve and i can see blue ceres on 2 of the pieds. Another pieds scaly face was that bad that the cere was crusty and very raise. Its cere is sitting flat now but still not sure of its sex yet because of the scaly face. I am really happy i can finally see progress being made with them. I still need to get some weight onto them but that takes time.

Here is some photos of them. I know that do not look in the best condition but hopefully by the end of quarantine they will look heaps better.

 

Male and female grey normals, Sleepy and Bashful.

Grumpy a grey normal, i am not sure if it is a hen out of breeding condition or a male with scaly face. Any ideas?

Happy, male cinnamonwing. Sleepy and Dopey, male dom pieds. Doc,is the one on the end of the perch on the right, i am not sure what sex or type. Doc,s wing markings are dom pied but it has no iris rings and has a orange beak which means recessive pied.
