Re: Heating an outdoor birdroom
Well here goes a (pair of each):Dayna wrote:What kind of birds are you planning on putting in the aviary?
Are you also planning on having an outdoor flight attached for the summer months?
Gouldians
Owl finches
Societies
Shaftails
Rosey or pink Bourkes parakeets
Blue capped Cordon blues
Pied and non pied parrot finches
Orange breasted waxbills
Button quails
Diamond doves
Canaries
Java sparrows
Star finches
Orange cheeked waxbills.
I'm planning on a really mixed species aviary for the resting period and individual breeding cages for the breeding season. I might cut out a few pairs or add some depending on room, I wouldn't want to get stuck with a ton of babies although I know a few members on here who live close by so I don't think it'll be hard selling the babies.

Re: Heating an outdoor birdroom
Hahahah maybe I should get a couple penguins, I won't have to worry about heat and I don't mind sliding on my belly all the time. I like seafood too so it's a win win situation lol.poohbear wrote:[ http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc217/raebhoop/birds/2b56d97d.jpg ]

I wonder what kind of permit you'd actually need for a penguin? Lol

I don't think it's even possible because they are endangered and because keeping wild animals is prohibited also PETA would be up my alley forever.DanteD716 wrote:I wonder what kind of permit you'd actually need for a penguin? Lol

Re: Heating an outdoor birdroom
Wow thats a lot of birds! When you say mixed you mean MIXED hahaha. You'd have no problem selling the babies. I'll buy some too
I'll even take a couple penguins. I'll teach them how to pull my kids in the sled. Who needs a sled dog when you have sled penguins




Owls, Goulds, European Goldfinch, Red Belly Siskins and Zebs... For now...
