  1. Hi Andy, I'm looking for a pair of unrelated Fawn Zebs. The wind blew open my aviary door (now rectified) and I lost 16 of my zebs. Over the next couple of days and after quickly building a porch I managed to recapture 10 of them, one from several miles away shown on Facebook and taken to Fermoys! But sadly my pair of fawns didn't return for food and the wind was so high I very sadly accept they have been lost. I am near Slapton / East Allington area, so you are the nearest person on the forum, so might know where I can find Fawns. Thanks very much, Sue.

  2. Thanks Andyn, definitely doing it to herself, I watched for a while to make sure, but panic over. By mid morning she had stopped doing it. It looked like it was an itch that gradually faded - like we would with a stinging nettle or horse fly bite! but this morning all back to normal and I can try to stop feeling guilty about stressing them all out by a big aviary change. Thanks so much though, the info you gave will be useful, I'm sure, for the future.
  3. I noticed this morning one of my hen zebras more attacking rather than plucking one side of her chest, she has drawn some blood. I have just put all 16 in a new outdoor aviary which has apple branches in it, stone floor with concrete in between the stone slabs. The aviary maker said the wood had been treated with a safe wood treatment. The apple tree has leaves but no fruit. The birds have all lived together so unless it is some kind of stress response to being caught and moved, I can't think what to do. Can anyone advise please?
