Hi gang,
I'm gonna post the updates of the 3 pairs I've set up for breeding.

pair1: they had 5 eggs that i shoved under some zebra finches cause the gouldian hen got sick. She is fine now but I removed her from breeding cause I don't want to stress her even more.
Dad is Silver lilac chest and mom is blue, and bubs should be here in a week or so.

Not really CBL,
U get so many shades of lilac, from this to the light pinkish.

Well, first heartache,
The blue female laid her egg right from the perch and it broke on the bottom of the cage of course. That's a weird thing to do especially since that female spends most of the day inside the nest box.

Yes, she's one year old. That must be it.
