Aussie Finch Forum

My gouldians are acting strange a have 3 left and 1 pair is sitting next to each other then the female pushes the male towards the other female then he flies over her to the branch then the female flies after and does the same? what is this a sign of and the pair is preening each other

Welcome back Shanny , what happened to the other Gouldians ? How many have you lost ?

1 flew away as it got out and the other 4 died is it like a terrortorial display?

I dont know but I would be more concerned over the 4 that died , that is an awful big loss . Why didn't you come onto the forum and ask for help ? Thats 4 little birds DEAD . Sad sad sad Shanny .

Throw on some pics of the remaining birds and the cage they are in and see if the folks on here can help you out OK .

Whats happening with the grass parrots ?

i know i contacted the guy that gave me 2 pairs and then i was too busy with tafe and helping the birds
but the grass parrots are fine i lost a bay it died i came home on the weekend and it was gone i'm not sure if
it is squidgy or the other one that died... and my zebra finches are doing really good i found out that the pair that had 5 babies
as 3 died i found out that they had a sixth one and they are starting to fledge, and about 3 more weeks i am gonna sell the 8 babies
in one go too and 1 fawn was showing his/her guts as she /he chased after the adult finches.

I thought you were hand rearing Squidgy ? Wouldn't you be able to tell which one had died by the behavior of the remaining bird ?

Have you got any idea of what your doing Shanny > Seriously even for a beginner too many birds have died in your care . Im sorry for being harsh but Im so annoyed right now .

You took that baby Red Rump away from its parents and thought it was funny to prove me and others wrong and now its very possibly dead , well its not so funny any more is it .

And OMG guts hanging out What is that about ? Can you get it out of the aviary for some help ?

Anyhoo you best be getting some advice for the remainder of your birds and I wish you luck and hope you sort any issues out before you lose anymore and for crying out loud DO NOT buy any more birds.

Mods delete my reply if you want ... I dont care really .

WTF guts hanging out? Whoa shanny put pics up a lets see what we can do somethings is definatly rotten in denmark!!!!!
