All the birds got fresh blue gum (Eucalyptus) branches today! 😊( This is the Colour project aviary)

They’re having the best time chewing the bark and shredding the leaves😅, which not only keeps them busy and entertained but also comes with great health benefits.

Eucalyptus is packed with natural goodness, including calcium, magnesium, potassium, and iron, all important minerals that support strong bones, healthy muscles, and overall wellbeing

It also helps bring birds into breeding condition. Around this time, the hens are getting abit cranky🙃 and wanting to chew everything. which is perfectly natural. As if you think In the wild, they’d chew at hollowed out trees to prepare their nest sites, so providing branches gives them a healthy outlet for that instinct too.

I bet you this will be gone and stripped by tonight 😅 I'll keep you updated

Hey everyone! I wanted to introduce myself to those who don’t know me yet, and share a little about what’s been going on💖

Sorted through the rares today finally starting to get some numbers up on a few of them 😁
With rares, it’s all about building numbers first so you’ve got enough to work with.

A lot are still young, so I’ll wait until next winter to pair a few up.

Now to sort out the few normals I’m keeping for the rares, and the rest will go into the sale flight to find new homes 😊. I don’t have as many for sale as I usually do, since I’ve been slowly sorting through the birds throughout the year.

Last season didn’t quite go to plan 🙃, but I’m back and ready for the season ahead!

Picked up the big seed order yesterday, and spent today stacking it all, definitely a bit of a workout! 🙃😄
If I’d added just 10 more bags, it would’ve totalled a tonne! 😅

This is one of my biggest order of the year as i gear up for breeding season. With so many to feed. Having fresh, high-quality seed is essential to keeping your birds healthy and strong.

A huge thanks to Topflite for producing such top-quality seed. Their seed are grown right here in New Zealand and aren’t heat-treated, which means they retain their full nutritional value, something supermarket seed completely lacks.

Even if you just have pet birds, please don’t buy supermarket brand seed. Most of it is poor quality, heat-treated, and lacks the nutrients your birds need. While Topflite might be a little more expensive, you're paying for proper nutrition, and your birds are worth it😁
