At the moment they are in a small cage, as soon as I sell some of my zebs I will be swapping them over so I can get more gouldians :)

Very nice gouldians but keep a eye on them when you transfer them in with the zebs.The breeding pr of zebs will be the dominant birds in the cage and will become very agressive to them.Pretty little zebs can become pretty little murderers. Craig

The gouldians are now in with 1 zeb female fledgling & 1 whit adult female.

Believe you me Gouldians can hold their own with Zebs. As long as their are more Gouldians than Zebs. I breed both together this way. And the Gouldians have ditched the Zebs out of nests.

That maybe true FB but that's not what i was saying.Introducing a pr of birds into unfamiliar surroundings into a cage with birds that are familiar with the cage and/or breeding can cause aggression.Imo,Lois has done the correct thing until her gouldians have adjusted to their new surroundings.

Don't think the Zebs will be sitting on those eggs then... :think:
