Aww man I wish my babies were this tame after I put them back in the aviary! I cant wait until I buy my own house and can build a proper bird room so I can walk in like that and have my birds come play.

 

Awesome pics!

i handle all my chicks dayly from young so this helps

i love to interact with them i hate flighty birds that you get from some places that almost hurt themselves if you even look at them

 

but i do have to be careful dont want show birds kissing the judge

these will all be young stock birds though so i like them tame makes cheaking them easy as they come to you

and here are some shots i got after all that

 

grey spangle cock

maybe a cull yet

 

 

 

his sister also possible cull

can you explain the water bottle to me? what is it meant to do

 

can you explain the water bottle to me? what is it meant to do

 

 

well the water bottle actually stops cross contamination of poo in the drinkers

they say it stops most spreading germs i dont see that being true though as they need to use tongue to get water out

but i have improvized mine as of about ten minits after this shot lol

i actually got a ginni pig drinker and i heated the lid on the bottle pushed the ball bearringnib into the lid and then heated it sealed

now i can clean the water drinker daily by just cleaning the ball bearring nib

the birds can get the water better also with the nib rather than just a small nail hole

 

it works as the gravity holds the water in untill the birds tap it with the beak

in which the water drips out

no more parrot soup

i have a old mason jar feeder that broke and i have screwedthat to a bit of wood and atatched a bottle for the drips to fall into so birds cant get dirty water and defeat the whole purpose

the bottle unscrews

but as im lazy i devised a way for the water to drain out and down a tube when it gets to a certain level it drains straight out of the aviry no water on floor no risk of mold or meldue forming on floor and no parrot soup drinkers

also in summer i can freeze and birds can enjoy cool water all day long

Lovely photos Gb, it is nice when you go into the aviary and the come to you.

Mine love to sit on my shoulder and in my hair they think my hair is a nest i think .

I like your drink bottle holder, can you take a photo of the whole thing so I can copy it Please

Wow there are some handy babies there GB, they should turn out realy good.

That hen from earlier post the shared breeding one , I think a cobalt, is she from my hen or some

other shared breeding.

yes splat and she is sky blue

shes only chick i have recived although i was told i will get three more by end of year

he has 6 chicks at his place now

all would be maybe 2 months now

seems their was a few supper chicks she was the worst from the first clutch

he got other two a cobalt cin spangle cock and a violet cin hen she was stunning

 

second round i believe their is a cobalt spangle cin

two more violets ones a cock the other im not sure and three sky blues again one definitely cock all cin

i will be getting what he decides although i have requested a violet and a cobalt of what ever sex

this would make the venture even share as he has so far

from first clutch

one violet hen

one cobalt cock

then if he took two skys and a violet

and if i took one sky, one violet, one cobalt from second round and i have the cinn sky hen from first round

but i dont think its going to pan that way

i think hes waiting for chicks to molt out like last time and i will get the lesser chicks again

but hey that lesser chick is my best chick so... i cant really complain even if i end up with the three sky cinns from second round its better than nothing, (which my still be a possibility )

and im not about to wreak a friendship over a few birds after all shes beautiful and will be biggest asset to my stud when shes older

She looks like she is going to be a good hen. She kinda looks like her uncle no really she does. ,

Fur seal? I have one of these in the nestbox (ice cream container on the bottom of the breeding cabinet). It's my youngest daughtér's favourite.

 

I love your pics. This one and the grey spangle that you might cull are my faves. I'm a sucker for the spangled look!

Cute photos .............

**** think ill have to go back to dark if thats the case

pink

who next seems i cant have any hair style with out being told i look like someone from the music world or tv cant i just look like me please

Gee I am the opposite, I wish I didn't look like me because I look so much like my mum.

Gee I am the opposite, I wish I didn't look like me because I look so much like my mum.

well i guess when all your life you just want to be exepted for who you are but everyone always says oh you remind me of .....

you really just want someone to just see you not someone else

i look like my mum and my dad and my sister and brothers and little Ralf down the road, bones , julian Clary , mark Holden,gina daves ,Claudia shiffer ,linda estavige ,frank spencer,nat imbrolio ,Sebastian bach,greta someone,frankly i think they are all on drugs the list goes on even been told i look like far lap lol but i think that person was plain just being nasty lol i did think it was quiet funny though at the time

but to me

i look like my reflection and personally it really doesnt matter what i look like because im happy with who i am so ....

if you think i look like pink well so be it but i can tell you now dont ever expect me to sing like her lol cause you may be very very shocked

my brother tells me im going to look like Laura Palmer if im not careful ... wrapped in plastic

every one always looks beond the person to their looks i think its pretty sad really as basically their first thoughts are oh look at that they must be ....

whats with that how about the drop the judgmental statements maybe give everyone a chance cause nobody's really what they seem

character disguise is very common thing these days , that up her self ***** may be very shy and lovely when you actually talk to her

and the really nice sweet looking person colud be the person you wish youd never meet

my look changes with my emotions

so i dont even watch tv once in blue moon

or do i keep up with the music

so to be told i look like so n so well half time i have no clue who their on about i just say fair enough if you say so

if i could look like anyone id want to look like myself but when i was about 19 , lol its never going to happen
