Breeding Bird? I want out nesting birds and I'm curios what breeds are good for beginners and reproduce easily. the thing is that I want to raise the birds you can get out of the cage and play with. I researched this guy but I am curios u think. But do not worry, no matter what kind of bird I choose I'll make a lot of research and to take good care of them.
Sorry Rain On Your Parade so to speak. But the birds do not play things.
Love birds are difficult to reproduce because they need the moisture in the open nest ect.
Tiels are fairly easy. But to be honest, with all animals, they do not really play and you do not have much time ect patience.
Ask yourself this, you breed pair of birds, when suddenly the mother decides not to feed her chicks, same goes with the father. Are you ready to hand Feed every 2-4 hours, ect get bird risk of infection of cultures. All these things you need to be prepared about.
Why do not you pick up a young Tiel, hand start to tame and teach things to do. This way, you have more fun things to teach new bird.
I would look for a solitary bird, you can easily take advantage of, you know how to give a couple of drinks to get a little drunk and BOOM your breeding! I recommend a much larger bird.
Hope this helps!
Bird toys arent
Well let me tell you parakeets are good for beginners and they reproduce easily! I started with 3 birds. I'm ten birds and eggs to hatch soon eleven! I am being overrun. I do not do something special. The clean water every day, clean cages, good food, I use seed and special boxes of molting and conditioning (stress formula seeds) of all foods available at Walmart, I use a bath birds 'small' nest container mother and other mother prefers the bottom of his cage, no rack. I separate breeding pairs from other birds during nesting. If you do not have other birds to harass the couple and some destroy the eggs. I keep warm and I cover them every night to rest (about 12 hours.)
The more you deal with these birds when they are very young, they are more friendly. I let mine fly every day for several hours. I do not clip their wings. Birds are meant to fly and I think they are much healthier and happier than the birds that never leave their cages. My birds land on my head and my arms, give me overflights when I call them LOL, and they like my kitchen table to investigate seed. My oldest birds are now 4 years old, the youngest a few months.
Oh brother, with all the birds in rescues why even bother to try to prevent more birds from the farm is just a waste of breath.
10 birds and 11 eggs and only a system of seed, not surprising that birds reaching epidemic portions more rescues! Nobody gives a rats ass about genetics and diseases that affect the bird community or genetic defects, legs apart, or if they are hand fed, hey, we can just play with them in the box that good enough, while others do not give them proper veterinary care, they should expect to have, oh no, he is one of the breeders who really care about a bad reputation!
When it comes to reproduction, seek first save. Volunteers and see what really happens when you do not recur. How are deposited on a daily basis, and how many are actually supported and abuse. Then rethink what you wanted to do. Just ask one with 10 birds and 11 eggs, when they last took to the vet, I never bet! Which is exactly my point here. If you can not afford to take him to the vet for balances, you should not be breeding at all. If you can not prove the blood work, they are healthy, you have no business raising anything.
I bought a pair of breeding cockatiels are about 7 years. Before you start breeding, to find a person in a pet store or a private breeder who can help you. If you can not get the birds you purchased.
