I have 3 eggs myself, due to hatch in the next 7 days, so am just as excited as you!! All of mine are fertile, so now i must just be patient. Have you been able to candle your eggs? Is she finished laying?

SCB 22

No no, i just meant, do they have a leg ring... As I am purely curious if they came out of a huge flock, of birds where there are multiple the same colour, that the breeder could be certain the 2 that Rebecca Harry has are a male & female... As they are only 5 months old, so there is no way to b...

Typical male behaviour : Will put their wings out into the "heart" shape and bow down / tap his beak to items. Also easier to teach males to talk. Typical female behaviour : will crouch down with wings slightly out, while pinning her eyes, with head tipped back making clucking sounds. Hop...

SCB 22

Out of curiousity, are your bird rung?

SCB 22

I notice you say they are male and female, but in your very first post, you say they are from an aviary with lots of other, are they DNA sexed? just out of curiosity :-) Welcome by the way ! Staring is normal. all of mine stare at me from the moment i walk in the room, to see what im doing, if i hav...

SCB 22

lol, thank you

SCB 22

Here is typical male and female behaviour. The green is obviously the male, they stand tall, and put their wings out and display, where as the female - the grey turq - will crouch down, tipping her head back and putting her wings out slightly for the male.... http://imageshack.us/a/img208/5034/r06k....

So that you can get accurate results, which is your female? And how old is the pair?

good luck, ive only just got my first 3 eggs for the season, but i checked this weekend and YAY all 3 are fertile.

SCB 22

Just my comment on wanting your bird "bonded" only to you, my grey turq female in the pic there, when hand reared ended up so attached to me, I battle socialising her with my other birds, she was sitting peacefully with them there, but only as i was a distance away. As soon as i get close ...

SCB 22

I dont know about Lutino? Those flights look more brown washed than the white they should be? Perhaps if we could get a pic showing the open wing it would be better?

SCB 22

I have a breeding pair, one of which is my tame male, plus 2 hand reared males, and a hand reared female, my 2 males are housed together, and all of them still absolutely love me, when i go up to my 2 boys cage and talk to them, they both drop their wings and bow and start taaaalking away to me, my ...

stunning

SCB 22

Hey, how old are they? Usually it is a few weeks after mating begins that the female will begin laying an egg, every second day or so

SCB 22

Welcome! Sure you will find tons of helpful info here, especially on bluffing!

Good luck

Seems to be a turquoise blue. The lower beak will change to black as the bird matures, hence the colour change now/

Hi looks like a normal indian ringneck. First key giveaway for African Ringnecks is a distinctly darker beak, both upper and lower. A black lower beak is normal for a indian ringneck, as they mature, with a red upper, African ringnecks are both very dark. Hope this helps :-) Here are pics from anoth...

SCB 22

Hi, do you know the sex of your birds? What age were you told they are? Unfortunately unless you have a young male, who will then be developing his ring, there is no way to gauge age. Male ringnecks start getting their rings from about 18months, and are usually fully rung by 3 years, which would giv...

I have asked the girl who has the female to try take some pics this evening of Bean (as she has been named), with her wings open with both flash and natural light, then i can post them tomorrow, for Molossus and everyone to take a look... Here is Bean a few months back, but they are not pics of her ...

Hi Ring0neck, so i would be correct in saying that the tail of Vinay's bird has too much blue and colouring on for it to be clear head / clear tail? It looks more to be a pallid of sorts?

SCB 22

Hi Vinay, does the vet paperwork specifically say it has been tested for PBFD? As that is the main thing we would be looking for as it affects the colours... Offhand i cant remember the colour of the pallids tail, thats why i have asked my friend for more pics and I will post them up when i receive ...

SCB 22

Hi there, will post some pics in a bit of a blue pallid i bred 2 years ago, he is a male, but his ring has not come through yet, but you will get the idea of what a pallid looks like, lovely birds, you will also note where your bird is different to the normal pallid. Has your bird been vet checked, ...

Last 2 pics were at under 12 months. First 3 were at 36 months old.

Just a grey green cinnamon hen

not an edged bird

SCB 22

It does look like a pallid... As alot of the guys always ask, when unusual pied like marking come up, has the bird been tested for PBFD? As that can cause the usual feather colouring :-) but molossus and johan and all the regulars are waaaaay better at the mutations than me :-) curious to see what t...

What do you guys think of all my feathery kids

SCB 22

Your bird needs to see a vet.
If he cannot move his head indicates there is a problem. How do you know he is not in pain?
Birds hide pain and illness very well. Just because he seems to be better, does not mean he is getting better.

SCB 22

Some males & females just do not pair no matter how long you leave them together. I suggest you seperate them, as some hens have been known to kill their male partner if they do not fancy them....

Rather be safe than sorry, and maybe try pairing her with a new male!

SCB 22

SO much of jealous Carmen... SO much of jealous...

Maybe I'll have to wait and get my Angry Bird a girlfriend this year from you

SCB 22

I bred my hand reared cinnamon green dom edge female with my tame green male successfully. Obviously they become very nippy whilst breeding, but then after the season is over calm down again

SCB 22

Lol, typical Male behaviour. He is showing off. Seen as he doesnt have a partner (im assuming here) he sees that lovely bird in the mirror and decides well, as miss k says to show that bird what a stud he is... My male is caged with another male, and they show off for each other!

SCB 22

Some ringnecks talk the hind leg off a donkey... others never say a word. I never did anything special to teach all of mine, except for talk to them daily like i would a person, good morning, how are you, naughty bird, or as my one bird says "hello angry baba" as he is a grumpy boy. Are yo...

SCB 22

i have never heard of a bird being neutered. Sterile yes due to inbreeding, or even age but not that.

So you are saying they have had clutches before? Was any evidence of previous babies provided? As you 100 % certain that you have a male and female, and of their ages?

SCB 22

What does it look like? can u send a pic
even email if it wont allow you to post

sc.barnes19 (at) gmail.com

SCB 22

Have they bred before? How old are they? How many times have they had infertile egg in total?

Thanks

SCB 22

Hi Sheyd, pics sent, let me know if they received, for some reason when i try send a message it just sits in my outbox, and does not move to sent items so i have no way of telling if it has gone through

SCB 22

His beak is still changing colour, he is under a year old. Feet are the imbetween colour, not the dark of the normal green bird, and not the light of a cinnamon. His flights were beautiful before clipped though. Have a pic of his flights comparison to his sisters when he was very young, if you inbox...

SCB 22

Hi Shey, He really looks like a normal green bird, just lighter. You cannot see the colouring in his flights as they are clipped. My indigo blue cinnamon male from Carmen decided it was fun to pull all his tail feathers out, so I have had to seperate them, once his tail grows back in i will try get ...

SCB 22

Sorry I should have said my young male is a green dom edge / cinnamon, so was looking for a bird with cinnamon as well to pair with him

SCB 22

Hi Lushen, would lok to keep in touch as the season goes, and maybe see what colour chicks you get from Pair 3, and possibly get one from you. I lost my dom egde female earlier this year, but have kept one of her sons which is dom edge, so would love to get a female that's dom egde as well for him...
