back to the beginniing? i never left it

once cricketman is in the car only room for 2 more

you going to the cold side PP?

not true as the size of the tank is not important it's what you do with the tank that is the important thing

a flaptop is it?

ours like KFC especially the mashed spods and gravy

sorry sam i wouldn't like to ship a young bird like that unless it was by a pet courier there is a company called shintoshuffle and another called pet couriers who would ship though that colour is a pied and one of the mauves i am breeding trying to breed purple pieds at the moment i will have a look in the aviary tomorrow and see what is there in the way of youngsters that i could train for you

males are better talkers

i made a round cylinder about 250mm across out of wire netting put a base of netting on the bottom stuffed with dry hay cut holes in side for finches to get in use a broom stick to poke in and make a hollow in the hay hung it in the aviary undercover and the zebies nest in it and talpacoti doves nest in the top

so mdf boxes wouldn't get wet then?

does your tank have a sump?

doesn't your aviary have a roof on it?

not the best thing to feed to hedgehogs http://www.hedgehogs.org/ http://www.petsonthenet.co.nz/hedgehog.htm

thanks dixon yea i iz fo real bro 8)

may have some albino ones a bit later on

are you pulling the wool? over our eyes taking maggots off a carcasse may be a source of infection depending what the animal died from use some dog food etc and grow your own

i use a layer of bark, if birds feed on the ground on damp feed they can pass this on to the young in the nest young birds have a weaker immune system

they slow down on feeding when they are colder if they get too warm you can end up with problems as well don't get a filter that puts too much flow in the tank as this can damage their gills

some of our axolotls are kept in bathtubs outside that freeze over in frosts

ensuring they are clean is the problem, some keep them in bran for a few days before feeding out

not so much a matter of heating hang a 100 watt light bulb in sheltered back of aviary with perches near it gouldian finches don't have a down on them so get cold quickly they are only small birds and food they consume is used to heat their bodies on cold nights our long nights in winter mean they run out of internal heating the lighting allowed them to get to the food to recharge the heating system worked for me zebras should be able to handle a winter outdoors if they feed off a damp floor in winter they can get fungal infections in their nasal passages

have you tried them on earthworms? how big are they and how are you housing them?
