FeatherI had an interesting afternoon pairing birds for a good budgie mate. I am always amazed with the birds I see in other people’s aviaries. Most breeders have a very good bird or two but never go forward because of the way they pair their birds. I had a lot of very nice birds to select from, but when comes to pairing it is hard to find suitable mates for them. I am not one for putting a pair in a cage just because the cage is empty. Anyway it was good to end up with some very nice pairs and some suitable spare partners that could be used if either bird of a pair fails to breed. Also a Few birds were selected as suitable second partners for special features. My particular focus is on feather quality, and building feather quality into your birds. if you struggle to understand feather check out this article on this web site. Feather Complexity

They are true words spoken and again while most go down the track of the old ages breeding best to best instead of breeding best suitable to best suitable for maximum rewards with less stock birds hmm or one may just continue to add more pieces to there forever ending puzzle. For many it's a numbers and hope game rather than a search for quality and certain qualities, Thankyou again for another eye opener. Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
