It's kind of late but I wanted to make sure it was going to happen before I made a journal. I'm using this for my lovebirds too.
This is my first time breeding budgies. I got done selling my lovebird babies awhile ago and decided to breed a pair of budgies. Well Royal is a male dark blue and Angel is a grey female. Ok well they laid their first egg about 20 days ago and so on until there were 6.:D On August 7 I woke up and heard peeping. (I didn't know where it was coming from because my lovebirds have eggs also.) So I put my ear to each and sure enough it was my budgies. :D So the next day I wanted to look and see if it made it through the night and if Angel was feeding it, and she is :o This is her first time breeding and she is such a good mom, Royal is a good dad as well. He goes in the nest box sometimes and helps Angel. He feeds her through the door also it is so sweet. Well the blub crop is full every time I get to check it (which is not that much because Angel is always in there). It has black eyes. Ok today I checked and to my surprise there were to blubs and 4 eggs (I didn't expect the second to hatch until later on tonight) and the weird thing about it is I don't see any eye. It's crop is full and its moving around, but it doesn't look like the other blub. I know it means it has red eyes but how does it. Both parents have black. Oh yes how come 3 of the eggs are white and 1 is off white? I don't know what kind of mutation the parents are, I'll post a picture as soon as I can. Any help is very appreciated. Thanks, and wish me luck.
