It is gratifying to breed your first "monster" :grbud: Mine was "Magic" and he is a stunning Sky Dommie Pied, even better is that he is a natural stud bird. :P

she is from my gina house bird and his blood lines are good but not sure if i should paste all over bird sight as that would give away the make up of her birds :D sorry

i think she will be good use in my stock

i might even put her to the grey green split/lacewing cock bird ..father of grey green spangle elly

as he would fix her nipped head

I don'5t think you can class a budgie,half show half pet,its a bit like a glass of water.

is it half full or half empty.You call it one or the other,it a pet type or show type.

Its hard enough to breed a good budgie,to be fiddleing around with pet shop type birds.

You just have to hope that she passes on the good features, and not the pet-type size

 

no dave i know she wont pass on any size issues as shes from a 3 year line of breeding

and no probs their so

wouldnt try if i hadnt got good history on her familey

grandad is a show type grand mum a half show

her father is show size but not as good as grandad and this hen is as good as grandad but wider and beter direction not as nipped so

its about the challange im just enjoying with some playing seeing how far i vcan go with certain things

i have my serious birds also
