HK budgies This page is for my show stud and my rare varietys and their progress. happy to answer any questions, no questions are silly, we all have to learn some how

and for those who are wanting to learn about the basics of genetics and the other harder genetics.

Well, it’s a massive sort out day today, as I need to cut down on the Budgies now...

This is a massive job, as lots of people think it’s just looking at them and making a decision.

But it’s not so simple. I have pedigree show budgies that all have identification bands, I’m also a genetics rare budgie breeder, so it’s working through the pedigree breeding records, blood lines, age, and what qualities they have😉...

Try doing that over 300 times 🙈😂🫣 Well, that’s my guess on how many I have currently... As due to my health, I put the sort through on hold till I got better (but, well, that didn’t happen 🙃), so trying to navigate and accept life is different now.

So I have to move on and let go of my old self in that way. I’m not the same person I was 2 years ago (which is a hard thing to come to terms with, as I do try to think, oh, I still can push myself like I used to... but I really can’t😶).

It’s not the end of my dreams💖 and the work I have done and achieved. It’s just downsizing to a manageable level for who I am now.

I still will be breeding budgies, working in genetics and rares and the show birds... just not as intensely as I was before.

Anyway, I didn’t get to do my sort out for 2 seasons (so 2 seasons' worth of baby budgies I have to work out as well). So a big job

So I’m just going to slowly start. Might take me a month, but that’s okay 🙃 I'll see how much I'll get down today😄

Not great photos sorry, but here are a few photos of some late chicks from last season.... Boy, hasn't time flown by quickly?

It's already coming up to breeding season again. 🙉 I can't believe how fast time has gone.
It definitely felt weird not going to any shows this season, but I definitely needed the break.

Not sure yet if I'll be doing a big breeding season this year, as I'm still trying to catch up on so much stuff from the last two breeding seasons. And well... those who know me personally know the last two years have been a massive battle. My life literally got turned upside down, and I've had to relearn how to live this different life. It's definitely taking some getting used to, and I still have so much to catch up on.

First thing will be sorting through 300+ show budgies. 😱 I'll be honest, it gets extremely overwhelming. Some days I feel like I need a reset button. 😐 But I'm just trying to catch up on two years' worth of work. 😮‍💨 It's a lot!!!

Just slowly trying to get back to things, will be posting updates on things on here more often ( well I'll try my best)

Anyway, that's an update on things for me at the moment.

One of my goals as a breeder is helping preserve varieties that are becoming harder to find.

Let's talk Goldenface. 💛

What a stunning variety this is!

Sadly, proper Goldenfaces are becoming harder to find these days as they are often being mixed with the Yellowface gene. This has created a lot of confusion around the variety and makes identification much more difficult.

I'm incredibly happy with the progress I'm making with my Goldenface line this year and excited to keep working with this beautiful variety.

It's taken years of work, a lot of money, and plenty of birds that turned out to be hybrids rather than true Goldenfaces. But after nearly 6 years of working with this line, I'm incredibly proud of what I've achieved. It has bred true generation after generation and consistently displays the characteristics that a true Goldenface should have.

I believe the more we understand the genetics behind our birds, the better chance we have of preserving these amazing varieties for future generations to enjoy!

Even though i have slowed down in the breeding season... still had a few last pairs hatching some chicks 😊

This is the first split Rec pieds coming from the big Rec pied c**k. All 3 hatched, They are looking to be aright splits, big birds in the hand...but will see how they grow out

Well this wee girl was the best out of the nest from her 2 other siblings.

But hen decided she didn't want her, so now i have to handrear her now. But thankfully I'm hand-rearing others for pets😊 so not much more work.

Really liking this family line, all promising birds

2 sibling CYCR not the greatest fan of these girls. As are quite pinched in, in the head and lacking the directional feather, but will see how they grow out.

Some more videos i took of cage/photo training some CYCR.

Grey green is not related to the violet hen.

This lovely girl has just left the parents so still very young and lots of growing to do.

Matthew Morgan here is an update on some of the chicks in the nest... still young haven't left the nest yet.

When they look like this at this age, you know they are going to be lovely birds!!
