Some time ago I restocked my budgie aviary and introduced a lot of new stock, included in the new hens was a particularly stunning blue and white pied hen, she had paired up with a green and gold pied cock bird that I bred they mated and she had laid three eggs, her first clutch, this morning the first baby had hatched I cant wait to see what the colour of the young ones are they should be stunning.

I lost the lot Laraine the parents killed them all, I have since moved the budgies over to the old Lovebird Aviary and taken all the nest boxes out I am going to give them a break until spring just to see if it makes them more settled.
