Happy budgies playing in their punga log. There are a few ways out as we don’t want anyone to get stuck in there. They have made the holes themselves. I think though because there is no nest box they may be planning something 🤔

Hi everyone mum says I am still too little to go out and do the outdoor markets. She said there will be a stall at Waverley tomorrow though as it is inside.

Plant stand will be topped up again this morning thanks for all your help and support

One of these 15 things just ain’t like the others…. But is still a Fischer (and this one is already spoken for)

I always find colours and breeds fascinating. Nature is so amazing!

How do we provide such a balanced and nutritious diet to all our birds??

Feed is our main expense and we can not go without our handraising formula or lorikeet mixes and millet BUT heres some things we do to lower costs as we try and be as self funded as possible

It is great for birds to havee a mixed diet

- grow lots of greens, I recently planted broccoli, pak choy and more spinach and silver beet

- grow pumpkins

- put in fruit trees and berries (these dont have to cost a lot i have some on the stand for $3 and the peach trees i sell are $10 (none right now)

- the birds love grass, tree branches (safe ones) dandelion and puha and there are a heap of flowers like nasturtium and calendula I grow here they can eat too

- meal worm farm, way cheaper than buying them and for a $5 donation I am happy to provide you with worms to start your own or feed to your pets that eat them

- through networking at markets and with friends we receive donations of fruit and vegetables which I freeze or dehydrate, also so the birds have them out of season or as a back up, buy when in season and cheaper, check out local markets

- there are lots of herbs birds like that i grow and sell (on the stand)

- buy pine nuts, cashews, peanuts, corn flakes, oats and make foraging fun, like putting treats in an egg carton and closing the lid so the birds need to find it

- lots of clean water in more than one bowl for bathing and drinking

I am sure most of us can and do a lot of these things for their feathered family.

If you looked through all the photos thank you ☺️

💛💙 The correct homes for our birds are so important …. The birds are never adopted on first in first serve, it can take hours of communication and checking potential aviaries / cages to find the right homes.

Happy to say these 2 beautiful Ring necks went to an amazing aviary home today where they will live together and have plenty of room to stretch their wings💙💛

💜💜 A while ago, I received an extremely generous donation of high-quality fabric. We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to Donna. I am now utilizing the fabric to sew box and cage liners, and huts for the birds. I have been doing this at night between the 7pm and 10pm feedings. Thank you so much; we truly appreciate anything that helps keep our birds happy and warm, and also reduces our reliance on paper towels as these are reusable 💜💜
