Bangersanmash 2,389 Posted September 6, 2022 Report Share Posted September 6, 2022 Had a good year with the timbrado canaries bred 55. Here's a few from the last round. Sold a gentleman 20 from Derbyshire unsexed few weeks ago all from diffrent parenting. Was saying that he'd been to Durham the week before an came home with 30. Wanted to take them all but I need some for next season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've just gifted a few with a pair of Mexicans to an old chap near me who's had abit of bad luck this season with his sib goldys not rearing so gifted a few pairs , so hopefully next season he'll have a better one. Worked out not so bad ended up coming home with 4 brand new pine doors from his place . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stops birds eatin the shite off the bottom of cage floors. You'll have no worries then them pickin any diseases up. You dont want the young catching owt specially when they've managed to get them to sticks. There easy to make mate just take measurements of inner sides of cage at bottoms where pullout draws are. You can use the pull out draw for a template makes it easier. Will let you know mate what I've left. All of these young have been fed on frozen insets buffalo worms pinkies. So they'll feed the young mules or any British you breed if need be mate. I'm a believer if you feed the parents insects then the young will start feeding them self's on them. You may buy canaries off one breeder who's just fed seed low cost for them. So when there older and you try to feed them insects they'll just not be interested mate. The breeders got to feed them from day one on insects. All my canaries eat frozen food. A like to mix spices in the eggfood too many are antioxidants for the birds plus anti inflammatory purposes in some too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
