Well my hubby made it!! But the shed is MINT!!! really thick wood, 3 windows so good amount of light in the shed... I've put an old broken nestbox above the shed door and he bourkes love it!!! I think that's were they are hiding!! Since I've outthe boxes up I have hardly seen them! And the plumheads are hanging around the cockatiel sized boxes ( I put up 4 cockatiel size boxes and 2 conure/plumhead size boxes) I just hope the silly plumheads lay in the right box!! Lol or it could get crowded!! |

Yeah they never stop!! I take boxes down in October so they get a good gap, otherwise they would just constantly be on eggs!!! My one pair cyclops ( he's the baby of one pair rocky and snowy he has one eye he had seed in it when he was a baby so I kept him) and filly have lush babies he's a normal split White and she's a fawn theit babys they sometimes have silver cheeks. |

Very nice set up you have there bakewell, I take it that everyone gets on then ? I have not kept any of the birds you have but they all seem gentle birds rather than budgies who can be bullies with other birds. Damn big zebras though :) |

Lol big ass zebbies!! Yeah the plumheads are so gentle! And the bourkes are just silly. Cockatiels are just horny so they don't think about anything else! We did have kakarikis last year but had to sell them as they just irritated everyone! And the zebs... Even though they are fatties they wouldn't stand a chance against the others even if they wanted too!! I'm just hopin if the bigger birds breed they don't all fledge the same time!! Kamakazee cockatiels! And lots of silly bourkes!! I've never bred the plumheads bu this year I'm 90% sure they will breed! It's so nice to sit out there and watch them! I've taken scarlet out and building another aviary for the conures. Honestly I have no garden!! Birds have taken over!!!! P.s my friend colony breeds sunnies and patagonians.... Now that's awesome! |

I love your aviary!!! What type of tree branches are in there? Looks like pine or spruce?? Wow, I've never heard of anyone colony breeding Conures. The Patagonians must be so fun, I don't see many at the bird shops around here. |

They are pine, my mum has a huge pine tree but she's having it cute down! The finches and bourkes will love the pine pins for nesting material. Yeah the colonies are a great sight! |
