Hi Bleeding Green, I have four pairs in this avairy, The avairy is a 1.5mx1.5m 1.8m high zincalume garden shed ($300 bunnings job) lined inside with mdf board and there is a 2.5mx1.5m x 1.8m open flight attached to the front of it which I have recently roofed with poly carb.bleeding green wrote:Well done, great clutch sizes. How many pairs of goulds do you have and how are they housed?
Love that sound

Good work with the Goulds ! 8 is a lot of work for them to rear, Must be a good pair.
Work smarter not harder !

Well my counting is a bit dodgy
The first clutch to make it to the perch was a nest of 6 not 7 as I first thought, however the second clutch from a different nest are about to fledge any day now and there is definitely 7 chicks there
Also in another nest there is 6 chicks about a week old
Out of the four pairs I have in this aviary 3 are very productive so far, hope they can keep it up

I have 4 Aviaries with gouldians. 3 of them have 18 young and if they feed around the same time it is loud. Not sure why but last aviary with 3 pairs has no eggs, let alone young. Very odd
