Current Pairs

Indian Ringnecks

My first pair of Indian Ringnecks "Nippet" Albino male and "Nelly" Turquoise female have produced

2010 - Hatched one chick but the chick later died (presumed crushed)

2011 - Had three fledged chicks out of four eggs. The chicks were coloured Albino, Turquoise and Blue.

2012 - Had three fledged chicks out of four eggs. The chicks were coloured Albino, Creamino and Blue.

2013 - Had two chicks out of four eggs. The chicks were coloured Creamino and Blue.

2014 - Had four fledged chicks out four eggs. The chicks were coloured 2x Albino, Creamino and Turquoise ("Tommy" who was a runt).

2015 - 



My second pair of Indian Ringnecks are a new pairing at the end of 2012. "Turk"  Turquoise male and "Blondie" Creamino female that have kept from from my first pair of last season. 

She is a young female and am not expecting or encouraging breeding until 2014.   

I lost "Blondie" is suspicious circumstance (Suspect cat) and I now have "Turk" in Ringneck communal aviary with another young Creamino female "Milly". Possible breeding this year (2015)                                                                                                                                         
Green Cheeked Conures

My Green Cheeked Conure pair took some time to start breeding and I was actually considering DNA sexing before they started to breed in 2011.

2011 - Produced four healthy chicks from five eggs.

2012 - Produced three chicks from five eggs.

2013 - Produced three chicks from four eggs.

2014 - Laid two eggs broke one and discarded the other from the nest.

2015 - Repeated laying eggs then braking or removing from the nest. Female has lost almost all her breast feathers.

2016 - No longer a breeding pair
                                     
Princess Parrots

My Princess Parrots are also a new pairing of late 2012. After losing my female during 2012 I have purchased a new mate for my male. She is a split blue so colour of young should also be interesting.

She is also young and am not expecting or encouraging breeding until 2014.

2016 - Laid eggs a produced four chicks. One got too far behind the other three and ended up affected by exposure. Three fledged chicks.





Gouldian Finch

They did not produce any chicks the whole of 2012 (the first year I had them) but have this year.

2013 - Hatched four chicks from five eggs, all the chicks was thrown out of the nest.

I have since had one female escape and one die. I have purchased a new pair. Hopefully results this year.




Red Rumped Parrots

I purchased this pair in 2013 and although hopeful for nesting this year I do not expect it until they settle in like most of my other breeds.

I have had the exact same issue with my Red Rumped parrots as my Gouldian female. One escape (didn't latch the door fully) and one die. I have recently purchased another female.

2015 - Produced six chicks (two died when very small). Four reached adulthood. 2x male normal colour and 2x Lutino.

2016 - Double clutch. First clutch 2x male normal colour, 1x Lutino, 1x Unspecified colour (Yellow with brown wings). Second clutch 2x male normal colour, 1x female normal colour, 1x Lutino.

Bourke Parrots

I have had two pairs of Bourke Parrots and I have had the same result with both pairs.
The female will lay and sit on four to five eggs two to three times every year but none ever hatch.

The eggs appear to be clear.

2015 - Produced two chicks. Both chicks were pushed out of the nesting box by the mother (suspect hassled by mice). Attempted to hand rare one that survived the fall.
