Hi I am a 33 year old male from Pietermaritzburg in South Africa, I started breeding birds last year, I currently have 12 ringnecks, 11 lovebirds, 6 cockatiels and just recently got 21 common budgies and 1 show male budgie. Im currently negotiating for a secondhand walk in aviary to colony breed my budgies and hopefully will have it soon to start my budgie breeding project, I don't have the best of colours or types, but the fact that I'm making a start is good. I joined this forum so that I could increase my knowledge. I also belong to our local bird club and want to learn more online
Thanks Lushen

Hi thanks all for the welcome, will post pics of my birds as soon as I get a chance, maybe later tonight, do I have to use a site like imageshack to post my pics or can I post them directly. Also thinking of starting a blog with my budgie project so that all can see as I start from scratch, please not that I'm not gonna put in tonnes of money into this so you guys are gonna see me buying a secondhand cage and set it up for a start, I want to start with colony breeding as I have mostly normal common budgies and only 1 show male, when I get more showbudgies, I will consider breeding 1 pair per cage, right now all my budgies are in one suspended cage and they are choosing their own mates
Thanks Lushen

Here is a pic of some of my lovebirds, they are still young, about 4 months old now, will have to wait for them to mature before I breed them, the ones in the pic are all peach-faced lovebirds, there is 1 normal peachface, 1 orangeface, 2 normal opalines, 1 Aqua, 1 Aqua opaline, 2 blue and 1 violet, I also have 1 fischer and 1 blackmask which is not in this pic, both of which are the wild colour green, still looking for mates for them, that my 11 lovebirds that I have I'm just testing if the pioc comes thru this way, if it does will post more pics later Thanks Lushen Attachments:
