My budgies have been breeding like there is no tomorrow this last couple of months and everything has been rosy in the budgie aviary ...........until this morning One of the hens have been raising 5 babies and doing a great job of it when i checked them yesterday ( Thursday) morning. I did another check this morning when i was doing my feeding rounds and she had killed all 5 of the babies, Im not a very happy chappy at the moment. [shadow=red,left,300]John[/shadow]
