Sky and Tazz will catch up soon if they can see and hear Holly and Mak She was dipping her back this morning, and Tazz did attempt to mount her but she wasn't having it. I think he just needs to get the roses out and impress her that bit more. It shouldn't be long until they mate.

for now iv'e kept Mak in, he's been in the box twice, and unlike last year there's no broken egg in his wake. So im hoping he's a changed bird. If there's any hint of trouble though im removing him.

after hearing a small squabble in the nestbox iv'e removed Mak. He was also getting a bit forceful and constantly wanting to mate outside the box, so i chose the lesser of two evils.

Finally today Sky and Tazz and mating on a regular basis, i only saw it once yesterday but today it seems they've got the hang of it. Holly is a "little" bit angry she doesn't have Mak around, she hasn't stopped squwaking the best part of this morning, and when she wants too she can certainly make a racket.

Hi Mick , i thought it was small but when i looked through a few old photo's of the eggs she laid last year it looks about right. Im sure i thought the same last year too lol.

Their eggs are really tiny though anyway aren't they. I remember seeing pics of them and thinking "how can a budgie come out of that!!"
