Have you heard the budgie news?

[Eriisu-chan]

In case you haven't seen the "Mites?" thread, I figured I'd share....

I am not the only girl in the house! :emot-danc

No, we didn't get another birdie... but Mav? Yeah, she is a Maive!

Thanks to Robin, we've figured out that her cere:

Is a budgie classified ad that reads: Single White (and blue) female budgie looking for Single Male budgie.

Now I have my boys, and for the very first time in my personal parakeet experience, my little girl!!

And yeah, we've removed any fluffy, soft or shreddable toys from the cage... at least for now!

Congratulations! Strider thinks she's 'quite a looker'!:funny:

She's SO pretty!! I always thought Mav was just WAY too pretty :nuts:.....now we know why :rotflmao: I like the name Maive :D

[Eriisu-chan]

I like Maive, too, but Ryan glares at me when I call her that! :funny: Or when I call her "her" for that matter... :rofl:

I was pretty sure she was a girl when she started "nesting" last year by kicking her food out of her dish and laying in it... I was surprised we didn't have eggs!

Mavis?

Now that Maverick is Maive/Mavis/Maverica...we need pictures. It's against the rules to change gender without documentation.

She is very pretty..

It's in the "Mites?" thread... which I will link after work since I don't have time now.... and I did post a picture! I posted two!

[Geoffrey]

I saw those....I thought I might be able to convince you to post more :P

We have to dispel the notion that mites is difficult to distinguish from the normal female budgie maturation process...:foot-tap::doh:

Ryan was saying how odd it was that during his search on "budgie cere color", nothing was mentioned on female budgies in breeding condition. :shrug2:

I found it... but I guess my google is better than his! :rofl:

Geoff, I guess I can give a few pics...

Most of her good pics are either in this thread (http://thebirdforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9088&highlight=bloody) or this (scary) thread (http://thebirdforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8262&highlight=bloody), and a few in this one (http://thebirdforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8347&highlight=bloody)... but some of her "good" pics are the ones I took after she was injured... :scratchch

He should have skipped 'Google' and gone straight to BoF to get answers to his birdie questions!:rofl:
