surprise, surprise, what I thought was a beautiful singing male canary, is indeed a female. yesterday 'she' was laying in one of the seed feeders. I thought to myself "strange for a male to do that." well, she was off her nest today, and I looked in, miss egg layer has laid 2 eggs!, the only problem is I'm not sure who the father is, as they have been seperated from the males for over 2 weeks. Unless she's just laying and their not fertile. there is seed in the bottom of the dish, she hasn't put any sort of bedding material in there either...stupid bird I just had a revelation!!!!holy crap, I have a gloster canary, who'm I was told was a female,he's in with cheesecake 1 and cheesecake 2, maybe he's the father, of cheesecake 2 OMG this sounds like a soap opera. ![]() |

What a beauty. As to photo size, before I upload a photo, I use office photo manager to compress the photo and save the compressed photo. I then upload the compressed photo. |

cheesecake 2 threw one egg out of the nest, and pecked a hole in the other one..oh well. cheesecake 1 is now sitting on 1 egg, and hopefully more to come! |

tonight I let Peepers my green cheek conure out of her cage to go see Kayo, my new cinammon conure, in his cage. It's their first time getting fairly close to one another. she flew to his cage, landed on top of it, he climbed up to where she was and promptly bit her foot! OUCH!!, she flew off that cage soooo fast, poor thing, that did not go very well at all. I peaked in on them later and she was ontop of his cage again, but this time she was sitting on a toy so he couldn't bite her toes... smarty pants |

Careful beth, toes can be amputated that way and or get infected when cut and then step in poop. Not to mention, they can bleed to death. Ive seen some nasty things and had to cut off a toe of a friends parrotlet that got bit by the parents. I don't let my canaries out anymore to free fly since a budgie bit their foot from landing on the cage. |

Beth, it was gross, the poor little leg looked like beat up hamburger, but only the toe was lost. Poor thing had to be hand fed and baytril injections for 5 days. He turned out fine tho. But they can be buggers. |
