Pass, how old do u start breeding ur goulds? I read that 2 years to 3 even for a first clutch. I want to breed that orange head couple and the yellow with the white breasted male. How long should I wait then? |

Pass, I think the of the 3 gouldian bubs I have, 2 r males and one is a hen, here is my theory. The one has a smaller gape and the voice is a bit different when beggin for food. Also, one of them has what looks to be a lighter greyish eyebrows over the eyes. Ever so sublte difference but they look like eye stripes over the top of the eye. Time will tell tho. |

Thanks CBL....I always wonder about Candy but don't want to ask too much. You must take really good care of her....she looks great. I love the blue tips around her face. She has already exceeded her expected life span hasn't she? |

Well, she has done better than most. I got her in Oct 09 and she was 6 months old then. So she is about 11 months old. I think Curly Sue died at 10 monthsish. Hopefully, she will continue to do well. |
