Posted July 15, 201410 yr G'day all. New to this site. Thank you for the add. I have two budgies Aussie and Shazza. And am looking at breeding. My grand father and my mum both breed budgerigars and I always enjoyed helping. It's taken me a while to get the cage right ( well what I have read and remember) and select my to feather babies. So I am hoping all the reading and time spent researching pays off. Aussie and Shazza have bonded well, Shazza has been working the nest, Aussie is feeding her and doing his little show off dance. So I think it's is safe to say I have a happy pair together. Just to put it out there , I am by no means in it for the money , with the amount I have spent on set up i think I'd need several flocks of budgies to come close to even making any money at all lol, I'm in it for the love of budgies and to see if I am capable of raising happy healthy birds who do feel comfortable to reproduce in captivity. I know there are lots of experienced breeders on here and if you think there are any main things I MUST know please share. I would love and welcome any advice that can be given. Thank you for your time reading this. Cheers Fee wee ??
