Bizzly, your actions show how much you care about your budgies and the chicks. You will give them all the best possible life, and they will know how much you love them.

Thank you to everyone for the replies and advice. I admit to being a novice, and not really doing my homework on all this, the aim was never to breed, but Im afraid love conquered all. I do now realise that what Barrie said about the nest boxes and concaves is all true, I didnt know that the concave in our box was not good, Im not making excuses, I thought all was ok, but to be honest there is hardly a concave at all, so I am getting rid of it as soon as I can, I feel sad that that this has happened when it could be prevented, I thank you all for your advice and input. we are all learning Bizzly  |

Charlie and Cheeky. Even their names make me smile. Charlie won't even know that he is disabled. He'll just think he's special, which all budgies are. You are doing great, Bizzly.

Thank you so much, everyone has been so kind and helpful, and yes all budgies are very special, Charlie will be just a little bit more special. |

Charlie will need all his seeds and water at cage floor level and little raised platforms rather than perches

It is only unforgivable if you don't learn from the mistake, Bizzly. And you have learnt. We probably all have, by assocciation. Charlie and Cheeky will bring you hours and (I hope) many years of fun and laughter. Can't wait to see them feathered up in their beautiful colours. |
