Hi everyone, I was persuing the net and found this forum, after checking it out I gotta say it's well put together. Everyone's experience seems to vary-good stuff! I'm from Canada, I have 30 budgies. I acquired them through people who were rehoming them and were looking at SPCA options. I am not a breeder and actually started with 2, but as I learned more and more I just got a bit crazier with them until I amassed 30-yikes. I obtained 13 all at once from a lady who was moving and didn't have anywhere/anyone to take them. The SPCA had declined her budgies. They were aviary kept birds. I had been keeping my original flock in cages and with the other 13--we decided to build an outdoor aviary and indoor bird room. I tried everything possible to NOT get any of them (the 30) to breed, but 2 of them got busy and now we have 4 more added to the flock. The baby chicks are 2-3 weeks old now. They are so adorable it's insane! I'll post pictures of my flock soon. It's almost midnight here. Anyway, I enjoy learning about them and don't mind me and my questions!! Hope to get to know everyone here, and see stories/pics of your flock! ;D ~Nani

Hi Nani, and welcome.
It's 7.23am in GMT (UK time). Most people, though not all, on the forum are from the UK. There's somewhere you can change the forum time to your local time I think, but I'm not sure where. It will be in your profile section somewhere probably.
In in Australia, so the time is out of whack for me too. I leave it that way, so I know what time the majority of forum members are up and about.
We should really have a mandatory field in the profile for location, so we know where people are to tailor advice.

Hi Nani and welcome to the forum! It seems a few people find budgies flocking to them once they start keeping some... :-)
My uncle and his family live in Milverton, Ontario and I visited them several years ago and loved Canada! I went out for a walk the day after I arrived and everyone I passed in the street stopped me and said, "Oh you must be Bobby's niece from Scotland!" :-) It seemed the whole town had been looking forward to my visit, I think mainly to talk about their ancestors from Scotland and Ireland. It was a lot of fun!
