Just zebbies since thats all I have! All pure normals, got two cocks colouring up beautifully, and a number of fledglings and babies in nests.
My little fawn has got herself a boyfriend- I believe he's a normal split fawn, but who knows! We'll see if/when bubs appear!

Sounds like all's well at finchman1 and nikis place. Must have been a late clutch for the gouldians finchman1 - mine are almost through the moult. In the last month at my joint these have fledged: TCPFs, diamonds, ruddies, painteds, OBs, cordons, maskeds and longtails.

Either late ones or very early starters. Well done in either case.SamDavis wrote:Must have been a late clutch for the gouldians finchman1
I have some BFPF just fledged and others in the nest. Also some emblema just days away from fledging.

Excellent! Reading AFF has got me thinking, maybe I should get some wrens?natamambo wrote:Superb wrens fledged today.
Bugger! Are they definitely a pair? Some years ago I had the same issue, and discovered I had two hens in the aviary.natamambo wrote:Longtails laying eggs all over aviary but not in nests.

You won't regret it but you need much deeper pockets to keep the feed up to them compared to the seed eaters.SamDavis wrote:Excellent! Reading AFF has got me thinking, maybe I should get some wrens?natamambo wrote:Superb wrens fledged today.
Yep, had 'em DNA sexed to make sure.SamDavis wrote:Bugger! Are they definitely a pair? Some years ago I had the same issue, and discovered I had two hens in the aviary.natamambo wrote:Longtails laying eggs all over aviary but not in nests.

Wild honeyeaters breeding well here. Scarlets just fledged 2 young from a rose myrtle near our lounge room & spinebills fledged 2 from a foambark near our bedroom. Both pairs madly catching insects & feeding on nectar in grevilleas & jacaranda tree in our back garden. Free-range softbills.

I've had two clutches of Painted FInches, two Scarlet-chested (One unsucsesful, one too early to tell), an Orange-breasted Waxbill clutch (Unsucsessful) and my Parrot Finches are getting pretty raucous and I think they might have a nest hidden.
