Re: How to start breeding?

Hi! I have a blue female and a green male and hoping they will breed this season. I have been told alot that it's best to keep the breeding pairs separate from others, but not totally 100% sure. You would think they would be ok all together except for breeding time. Hopefully someone with more knowl...

Re: Hi from Darling Downs, QLD, AU

Hi Ellie,

Thanks for the reply. Yeah I think I might just have Cleo & Caesar in there as other people have said the same thing. Hopefully later on I'll obtain another aviary and might have some other birds in there. :)

Re: A Happy Ending For Hazel :)

That was a lovely story. I can't understand how some people can do that to their pets. But you have done so well and should be so proud of yourself for giving hazel a much better life! :)

Re: Babies question!

Hi mikeb

Sorry for sounding dumb but I'm new to this. what does 'split' actually mean? Like if I had green birds split blue does that mean they'll be green with a little blue through them? Sorry again.

Re: Hi from Darling Downs, QLD, AU

Hi Ellie, Thanks for your post. I was just in Toowoomba last weekend at the Darling Downs Bird Breeders Annual Sale (where I obtained my ringnecks). I was so suprised at all the different bird species they had for sale. Hopefully this wet weather goes away soon, although Cleo & Caesar seem to be...

Babies question!

Hi, I'm new to IRN's and breeding them and I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what colour babies I can expect from a blue hen and green cock. Their parent's colours are unknown. I tried to attach a pic of them but it keeps saying 'board quota has been reached'. Any help is much appreciated, thanks!...
