:D Got your PM. So far, that is 6 other new pregnancies Ive heard. lol. Welcome to the pregnant club hun! lol. I was expecting to see more at my first ultrasound (had one at 6.5 weeks).. couldnt see much, so Im hoping to get some clear picks at my 12 week ultrasound. Goodluck on the 27th! Keep us po...

I swear that is what Jibby is thinking lately when he gets me out of bed by pulling my hair and chattering in my ear. Lola is now full time in her nestbox so Jibby has been alone for the majority of the day now and it seems hes gone a bit bonkers, hes chattering to himself more and saying things he ...

hi lovlies! and thankyou for all your great advice and well wishes. Right now I really need to take on board some advice as the last few weeks have been a rollorcoaster of emotions. So thankyou for chilling me out a lil. 8) especially Angie. Currently Im 8.5 weeks and due FEB 22. :D Soo Im now count...

CONGRADULATIONS!!! YAY! Wow 15 weeks, I cant wait to get to 12! (Im only 8.5 weeks right now). Somethings in the air lately. So many mums to be out there. Its like a secret society! haha
When are you due? Have you told your other bubs?
Again CONGRADS!

:roll: Well Lola is certainly ready to get this season started. Shes now sleeping in her nest overnight and just sitting in there during the day with the occasional kick of nest material out the entrance to the nest. Ive had to replenish the nest material once already because she kicked it all out. ...

:D Thanx everyone! Im sure some of you have been through this before. Its all a little overwhelming but exciting at the same time! Oh Im just not liking sleeping, I cant get comfortable at all lol. I feel so lethargic and nausious but weirdly enough it doesnt bother me as much as trying to sleep, th...

:D :D :D I thought Id announce it since I just told my mother and sister, brother will know tomorrow, will have to tell dad when he gets back from his pacific cruise. Oh dear! LOL Found out a few days ago. Already have the morning sickness! Still have to make an appointment for my first ultrasound n...

GOODLUCK HUN! Fingers crossed for you! Ive been out of work for a while too, dont get discouraged if you dont get it. But Im sure you'll do fine. You love animals and you've got life experience.

haha thanx all. I dont have a camera with sound. :( and my other camera I cannot use since my bunny chewed the charger for it. :( Oh I want to get this on vid. Its hilarious, because all I can hear is 'I love you' and lil kissy sounds. For HOURS. hehe. Until one of them pops their head up and realis...

Hello all. Well, Jibby and Lola have started mating yay! Lola is preparing the nest right now. Ive noticed Jibby has been spending hours of the day in the box with Lola. Its funny, because all I can hear from them is, 'I love you'. They sit in there for hours repeating it over and over. Its adorable...

:D Thanx Marine. I still have no given up on her and certainly dont want to 'rid of her', just think shed be happier as a breeder, Im the only human she feels comfortable around, she steps up to me and showertime with me seems to be her 'bonding time' with me lol. Even though shes a real monster, sh...

What Marine said. :wink: Just adding, some birds just dont like it and never will. My Lola has never let me touch her (unless its for step ups, shes good at stepping up, just dont touch her). But we have always handled Jibby from when we first brought him home, he was hand reared which might of help...

Oh no, that was in our old house 2 years ago. Just wanted to show what she has done in the past. :wink: We fixed that up. Just now its the wall vents in this house she loves to destroy as she can land on them. So I covered them with paper so there is no way she can grab onto them. Ill try and get a ...

Perhaps the increase in this behaviour lately is because shes 'looking' for a nest? I might also mention, Im hoping to breed her with a new man next year in an avary as shes not really pet friendly unless its shower time with me! Ive thought of clipping her again. But would this be wise if shes goin...

Do not let them eat your walls and ceilings. Ive had to replaster the wall vents and architraves (i think thats what their called) around the ceilings and cover them with sheets of paper and anything I can find so Lola cant get to them. Shes got an obsession with PLASTER. Its terrified me as Im alwa...

NAAAAAAAAAAW. Im Jealous! They are stunning! Their bellies look so snortable.

I used to play 'got your beak' alot with Jibby. hehe. He loved it!

Jibby likes to cuddle into my cheek, then he starts rubbing his beak of my cheek.

We LOVE AJ! Damn! AJ is some handsome boy! Thanx for stopping by! *I feel a lil star struck* hehe

*Hugs*

Im sure Posey new how much she was cherished. Thats a great idea of getting a personalized urn. Im sorry I cannot help. R.I.P Posey.

*Hugs* Im so sorry for your loss. *Sending warm and love and a full belly to Jerry out there*

Getting another pet can certainly help with grief. But can never replace the personality lost. Im sure your new baby will give you many cherished memories, just as lil Jerry did.

This is to all members, new and old: Ive noticed a couple of people have rather large avatars and signitures. If your avatar is too wide, it will throw the whole page off centre, keep it within the lines of the space provided or the dimentions recommended. Secondly, Large signitures take a while to ...

Wowie! Soo pretty! Yep, best ask in the breeding section of the forum. Someone will be able to tell ya.

Oh gosh, a lacewing for my Lola is rather tempting!

STUNNING! Love his eyes!

YAY! aww lil Pickles growing up well. Glad hes finally settling down.

Awesome! Ill be looking into getting another male in December/January! Im going to miss Lola showertimes though. Showertimes are the only times she seems to want to 'bond' with me, she goes nuts over showers with me! :( Im the only human she will 'put up with' even though Ive tried so hard with her....

Wow thats some family you have there! hehe.

Ill be adding another 2 next year. A new hubby for Lola as she will be in an avary outside and a (non IRN) friend for Jibby who staying inside, Im wanting a quaker.

yep snowballs pretty famous now, never get tired of him. I saw him on a morning show here, and aparently some scientists were researching to find out whether birds have rhythm. Its official. Birds do have rhythm and can keep a beat! Birds are truelly intelligent beings!

haha, We'll be paying off the mortgage as rent, so its not exactly free! But Im forever grateful to dad because well, I know we couldnt afford our own home for atleast another decade! But this way, its cheap and its a win win on both sides. Im trying not to think of it as mine, its my dads investmen...

You keep him in a box? Can your baby perch? Can you please get him a cage or a perch/stand? Im thinking this baby is too young perhaps. Sounds like hes quite young if he is not fully feathered. If so, the breeder should not have given him to you at this stage as most ringnecks wean at about 8 weeks ...

Im thinking of separating Jibby and Lola next year as I think Lola would be better off as a breeder, shes not really pet friendly and I will have the space and avary outside for her. She also hasnt successfully reared any chicks yet but shes only really has last year when she laid 4 eggs. If I got a...

Oh how I miss this forum and hearing of all your bubba chickies! Firstly WELCOME and HELLO to all our new ringies and their owners! Hope to get to know you all soon. Ive got some news to share with you all. Ive been a lil busy with house hunting lately. My dad is building an investment property that...

I was in bed watching tv and the bed was swaying side to side and the windows were rattling. It took me 10 mins to calm the birds down. They were all skinny wide eyed on the side of the cage. Poor bubs. My bunny didnt move, she was so shaken. Its funny what goes through your head in that second wher...

Yep, maybe try a shredder roll toy? some leather strips? Find some natural toys. I have 2 fussy birds too.. they seem to like the vine.. eg. http://myparrotshop.com/hanging-toys/fine-vine-swing-large/prod_333.html My jibby has never really been into toys, except his toy bell which he fell in love wi...

Love that last pic Adorable! i will have to post pic's of my boy Parker (rex) Oh please do! My mum has a rex. I cant believe how big they grow so fast! One day theyre tiny fluffballs that you can hold in one hand, the next gigantic. It just happens overnight! I used to have dwarf lops. So I know ho...

Thanx, shes grown alot in the last week, almost twice the size now, and shes turned almost completely grey, with black nose, ears and feet (looks like shes got socks on) The other ear lopped too. Ive officially renamed her Roo. Lola and Jibby seem more and more intrigued by her and will land on the...

Oh no. Poor bub! It does look like hes chewed it up a bit. Sometimes my 2 get a random 'sticky uppy' feather on or under the wing that just irritates them. Ive seen mine hold a wing up, but usually they either place the feather back where its meant to be or do the 'shake' to dislodge it. Sometimes ...

Jibby - Originally 'Gilbert'/'Gibbs'/'Giblet' because he liked grapes alot when I got him, and he was a little erm 'slow'.. Gilbert Grape from the movie.. ?? lol, but over the years, the name has morphed into just 'Jibby' or 'Gibby' and now he knows his name as this, even says his own name. Lola - O...

Now to answer your question.. its really up to you whether you clip or not. Everyone has a different opinion here. Maybe try looking at the pros and cons of both? Maybe you could try clipping and then once the feathers grow back letting him fly for a while. See which one is best. I had my 2 clipped ...

aaahh ive made me avatar to bug srry how do i fix it? Hi there, you need to resize your avatar by using a picture editing program you might have on your computer. I believe you can do it in the 'paint' program. You can also use photoshop if you have it. For a guide to how small it needs to be, righ...

So happy to hear from you hun! Glad your okay. My dad lost a friend in the fires, and my partner might have an aunty in the Marysville area. I was planning on going to Healsville the last 2 weekends, but sounds like Healsville is under threat. I am amazed at just how much donations people are making...

Just terrible! Worst ever natural disaster for us. 108+ Deaths and counting today.

Ang: Hope the family and yourself are okay hun! Take care.

If the fires come too close, dont stay! *Hugs*

Oh no. Im so sorry Julie. Poor lil bun! Rabbits are tempremental lil things, some can just be grumps, most dont like being picked up and handled much, but on the other hand, they need lots of social interaction, as they are social animals. One of our dwarf lops we had, didnt like me much, I tried. ...

Our 8 week old baby bunny doe (female)! She will be a 'house bunny', as bunnies can be litter trained just like cats. We are calling her Miffy for now. But I keep getting tongue tied with my mothers bunnys name Mia, so Id like to call her something else. lol. I like 'Roo' because she reminds me of a...

Oh my, I just read this. This must be just, heartbreaking for you. Please dont beat yourself up over it, these things happen, even in the safest environments. I have always thought that vets usually just take the whole wing off if broken behond repair? I dont think I could bare to see that. Just sh...

Hi there! Welcome to the flock! Aww Nick Nick! What a cute name! hehe. Jibby used to do this behaviour too, but he grew out of it, once he understood that I dont like it much. I would repeatatively put him back in the cage or away from me, and walk away. This seemed to work well. He still has a fasc...

Hello again! How is lil Toki doing lately? Good to see ya back here.

Oh and I do that too, always forgetting my passwords.

Welcome to the flock Ebony! Wow sounds like you've got quite a flock there!
Thats wonderful your a part of an avicultural club, Id love to join one of them.

I'm feeling for all the birds doing it tough outside right now. Hoping they all get some relief and make it through the heat. Its horrible news to hear of all the deaths. Birds are so fragile. Poor lil souls. Well the updated forcast is predicting 43 43 35 for the next 3 days, after yesterday being...

Hey Ruby and Ingrid! Glad ya found us here! Such a small world isnt it! Ingrid sounds sooo tame and loving! thats amazing he came back from his little 'adventure' out of the avary! lol. Sounds like hes got alot of friends to keep him company and hes a happy healthy lil boy! haha Jibby chews my nail...

People also need to remember there is no legal aspect that can stop you running a sprinkler for the health and well being of your birds, regardless of the water restrictions, so keep that water flowing if you need to, and I suspect many of us will. It isnt a good idea to move your birds in anything...
