Finally, our full inside aviary tour! You guys asked for it, so here it is—hope you like it. Let us know what you think in the comments. Breeding is already off to a great start this summer with 14 eggs and 2 little ones already hatched, which isn’t bad at all for a new setup….
Geoff is one of our longtime members and a total pro when it comes to breeding budgies. He’s been our go-to for new stock for years, and we’ve been lucky enough to add some of his great birds to our own aviary. They’ve settled in nicely and are loving all the extra space to fly…
