  • Building a bird aviary question(s)?

    I am going to be building a small to medium sized aviary soon I know where im putting it I have designed it on google sketch up if anyone wants to see then email me. At the moment it is going to have a chicken coop in it too. I want to keep indian ringnecks (a pair to breed) obviously chickens (4 hens) and maybe some cockatiels (I may breed them as well). First of all will all those birds be able to live together? and if I have any breeding could the attack each other or if I have ringnecks and cockatiels breed could that cause trouble? I have had a baby cockatiel in my room for 2 weeks now I got him 1 week out of the nest he has a big cage and he has settled in well and is pretty tame. I wanted a ringneck to start with thats why I got a big cage so next year (going to buy a breeding pair of ringnecks from the pet shop) If I had some baby ringnecks from the breeding pair would it be ok to move my cockatiel in with another cockatiel for him to be friends with or mate with someday? If he bonded to the other cockatiel he would still be tame enough to handle right?

    Ok now building questions. I was just going to dig up the grass so the ground is dirt then use cheep straw to lay on the bottom so it is easy to clean and so we can compost it. I live in Dunedin in New Zealand we have had mice in our compost bins before and also a few in house from time to time during the year but not so much lately. Do I need to keep watch for holes or should I put the netting or something under it so they cant get in? Or will the chickens scare them away? IM pretty sure the design is good just got a few changes to make on is to make the chicken bit stick out the back so there is more room. I have a good covered bit for the birds but is it a good idea to make a bit of a wall so they can go back into it to sleep? I will be also adding on a nest box for the ringnecks and if I do breed cockatiels too then I will just buy one for them.

    I also need to know what to put in the aviary for the birds. I will go get some long and right sized pine perches for the birds do I need to do anything to them first if they are in a aviary? Im not sure what else to put I would add some toys and things to play with but what else? For water I was just going to have a big bowl on top of the chicken bit (its raised off the ground) and one of the ground for the chickens and change it everyday.

    Thats all for now if someone could email with help that would be nice :)

  • How should I buy a bird?

    I was saving up for a blue indian ringneck at the local pet store but now I cant buy it. I asked what I would need if I got one of the indian ringnecks apart from a suitable cage (I have ordered a 91 H x 76 W x 45 D cage) and the lady said that because the bird was in a avaiary that I wouldnt be able to put it into a cage (they are pet ones not wild). They keep most of their birds in one aviary so does that mean none of those birds will be able to live in a cage? Please tell me if it would be ok too. Also the woman didnt seem to know much about birds she didnt really know what they needed.

    Also, How else would I go about buying and indian ringenck? Shoudl I put an ad in the paper or at the supermarket? Or ask the pet store if they know breeders that could help me? The other pet store only has budgies.

  • How come mavis beacon fails so much?

    Mavis beacon is REALLY crap. Today in ICT (im year 9) that is all we were allowed to do. The ICT class is unbelievable. We have spend this whole term half of the year 9 course for ICT drawing stuff on microsoft word...seriously im not joking after at least 2 activities it was simple then it was the same thing time after time. We also have to use mavis beacon which is a piece of crap plus it treats you like 1 freaken 7 year old. What can I do to make spending hours of doing this more fun? is there anything that I can do like just making major glitches and stuff? I seriously think after spending 1 term here we could almost make a better program.

    Please tell me what to do. Also, at the start I asked the "ICT" teacher what were were gonig to learn and we had to write down what we wanted to. I put down java and mabey dreamweaver/programming and SHE said " No we dont do any openig of the computers and looknig at the hardware" she didnt say it like that but she also meantno that was what programming is.

  • Pet bird questions experts please?

    well first of all would this be OK for an indian ringneck? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=24...

    I know idealy that it should ve 30x20x20 but would that still be big enoguh

    READ BEFORE ANSWERING

    The pet bird would have hours out everyday to play and stuff. Most of my free time (not at school) I am in my room that is big my bird would always be out when im in my room which is a long time hours and hours everyday. I have done research I know birds are a big responsibility.

    MORE QUESTIONS

    What will I need to buy (all the little things) like bird seed, pallets (what one?) toys, other things mabey cleaning stuff or something?

    If it would be a good idea for me not to get an indian ringneck what is antoher bird that would be good for me? Lorikeets cost to much for me I know I have to spend alot but the price all depends on the type of bird. in my local petshop, I went into it yesterday and they have a lorikeet that is in the middle of the shop and has an open cage and plays on its gym. The cage was a very small cage one I would say was fit for 1 or 2 budgies but lorikeets arnt that big are they? a small cage is fine for those and cockateils isnt it?

    I may add more questions so mabey you should check back! 10 points for whoever gives a good in depth answer and mabey some addition facts or information that will be useful to me.

    Also I live in New Zealand and dont use Ebay but if you know a cheap website that will ship to NZ or internatilaliy that would be good.

    AND If anyone can give a link to a good active not to big forum or a IRC chat (online chat) that would be perfect thanks.

  • How is a good and cheap way to build your own bird cage?

    I also asked another question the answers helped so I decided not to buy a cage but to build one. I have access to workshops and I might have time to build one at school if I stay ahead in woodwork (im good at it) but I need to know what kind of wood to use (I know untreated ONLY) and what kind of wire would be best (would chicken wire do?). I am planning on buying and indian ring neck I will make this cage big enough so its over 20x20x30" and its going in my room but it still needs to fit through the door. I don't really like step by step instructions and a list that I need to make something just what would work with it. Also can I just buy wood dowels to build one kind of perch or a gym? What kind of wood should I use for perches and a gym?

    Can I also just email a bird expert to ask questions if you don't mind or want to help out?
