Of course I love my finches, and cannot wait to get more!
But does anybody have info on breeding budgies, every place says the same thing. I think I may want to get another pair.. I also like bourkes and scarlet chested keets. Thanks!

Re: Breeding/Keeping Budgies?
Well i know a single hen can produce 9 eggs(that i know of) in one clutch without double clutching(can you imagine 18 babies?!)
They are small birds(uhduh)
I think you should get you a nice opaline male
and what about your female?

The female is opaline, yellow face type 2, dominant pied sky blue.
And that is a large clutch!

Re: Breeding/Keeping Budgies?
I'm not sure what I want to know really, but it seem ssomething is missing.. Not sure if I am making it clear.. I think it may be because I know so much on finches, and the budgie forums just give you the basicsdebbie276 wrote:What do they say that you are questioning??But does anybody have info on breeding budgies, every place says the same thing.
