welcome to the forum as as every one has said you wont go far wrong with Dave's Birds

good looking birds barry

sorry if i have misread your post but I really hope you are not trying to breed off her at 12 weeks old

thanks for the birthday wishes had a great day

Gareth Dan has some nice birds for sale in the sales section on the forum

see Dave I must of been thinking about you

trying to keep an even balance here i agree with you's both yes a pet shop bird may win at cbs show where the competition is not that strong but as Barry said it would not win at a show where there was strong competition for the zebra awards. what i would say is if you want to go into the showing part of the hobby buy the best you can afford one good pair is better than 5 poor pair if you want to keep them as aviary birds or pets then go to a petshop or sales but remember there is exceptions to ever rule and I sure there may be a gem out there in a pet shop but not many also if you buy a bird from a petshop you don't know what genes its carrying Allan

they should have black flanks Gaz

really nice shape and head for their age would be nice to see fully coloured up.

Emmy every one has there own ideas of what age you can pair youngsters up at I personally would always wait till they where at least 9 months old

Nice youngsters Barry you should get some nice show birds out of them

so the chicks are not from Her ?

Really sorry if i have miss read the posts but these to posts seen to contradict each other to me

.

Happy Birthday Dave

two cracking youngsters you have there Gary far to good to NOT be on the show bench next year

if they where in a big flight then they should have been able to get away from a bullying older bird another possibility is night fright from a firework going off

What age where the chicks ? was it an outside aviary ? was there any lighting in the aviary? sorry Tom if it seems a lot of questions but need the answers to help answer your question
