Posted January 23, 201114 yr Hi everyone, just wanted to let you know I have added 4 gorgeous budgies to my new aviary. Due to my age (13) I cannot join Photobucket. So instead, please head to this website= http://taylorstails.wikispaces.com I got all 4 from Lloyd Richardson, master budgerigar breeder and judge. All up, they cost me $150. Sunny and Fern will make some great chicks. Poppy and Bing will make some fantastic, show quality chicks. The chicks would be either recessive pied or Violet. Poppy's father cost the breeder $700, so she is worth quite a bit. Sunny's head markings are quite unusual instead of vertical black lines, there are black dots. The top two budgies are my inside ones and the bottom four are the new ones. Hope you enjoy!
January 23, 201114 yr Poppy isnt recessive pied. She is an opaline cinnamon dommie pied. Fern is not olive ...he is grey green. However they are nice birds and good choices. The pairings you have put together will have to wait awhile as some of them are pretty young. How far away from your existing birds are they for quarantine ? Edited January 23, 201114 yr by **KAZ**

Yeah I wrote that post pretty much as soon as I got them, so I didn't have a real close-up look at each of them. What do you think I would get out of each pair? (Colours/mutations, I mean.) The 4 birds I have inside, (2 budgies, 1 cockatiel and 1 princess parrot) are close to the windows that look onto the part of my verandah that is where the 4 outside budgies are. But we have never opened up those windows. Any bacteria/diseases, would have to be carried through the lounge room, through the kitchen, and across the verandah to the left. Poppy and Bing will make some beautiful chicks, as Poppy's father cost the breeder $700. I was going to get her sister and mate, but decided on Sunny and Fern instead.
