Well, after 6 months of false starts and clear eggs etc, we now have 3 OB chicks almost coloured up, 9 gouldian chicks fledged from 3 RH nests, and one pair of YH with 3 eggs at the moment. Love waiting for the gouldians to colour up to see what turns up... :D exciting at last.

Well done Flap, you don't mention your stars I note! Mine are still sitting around like decorative perch ornaments. But OB male has actually started making a nest so here's hoping.

Yes, stars still doing nothing much other than building the occasional nest :think: We are considering moving them on at some point. No joy from the St Helenas or DBs either. Oh well, at least the gouldians are holding up the side! :)
Pete, by then your aviaries will be all set up and I am sure you will have a bumper season!

In all your excitement, you must have forgotten the pics. :lol:

Well done.
Anything I say. What a wonderful philosophy you have.

triplea- i did think about pics, but then thought to us they are amazing chicks (only because we finally got some! :) , to anyone else would be just another bunch of uncoloured goulds, so nothing remarkable...
We are now up to 11 chicks out of 3 nests :o . Not bad for our 1st attempt at breeding gouldians. I think that might be it as I saw a different hen in the last nest to fledge, so guessing there are no more chicks.

Maybe so, but they are your chicks and you are a member and we like to see members chicks.
So Image and make usImage :mrgreen:

Congratulations FlaP. All successes are wonderful. My lot are dragging their heels, but there are nests everywhere and I did re-organise them a little late.
