View Full Version : Talk Me Out Of It!!
Please!! :p
I'm getting broody i think. For the past few weeks i can't shake the idea of breeding Cookie and Bailee again. Even looking at the demon child they produced last time isn't working.
I actually bought the nest box in from the garage today! :eek: Not that i'm doing anything...hehe.

as long as you can look after the sprog and have room etc, why not lol
Well if i do go ahead and breed (which i'm getting more and more tempted to do) the babies will be sold to good homes when they're weaned. That was the plan with the last clutch except there ended up only being one baby, lol.
I get the giggles thinking about poor Gracie having to share a cage with Snickers for the duration of the breeding, lol. Last time she had a small cage to herself which she loved!! This time (if there is a this time) she'll have the pleasure of Snickyboo's baby flirtation.

Oh Bea, Do you really think you be will Able to Sell Snickers Brothers and sisters being as cute at what snickers is? Good luck haha.
I actually feel confident i would be able to. Not to mention there would be no choice in the matter, i have no space in my current cages, no handy money for more cages AND no space for more cages, lol!! I mean, if i really wanted i could squeeze in one more boy tiel and one more girl, but i think i'm quite happy with four permanent cresty residents in my room.

lol i can't do it!!!! i just can't say don't have cute little babies....its physically impossible!!!! :p..i'm sure Bailee and Cookie will enjoy being parents again....poor Gracie tho lol...nothing worse than when a teenage boy has a crush on u...kinda flattering but utterly embarrassing for a beautiful lady like Gracie...all I can say is that Snickers has good taste!!!

Well... If you sell MOST of the babies you will have enough $ to buy another cage. You know you want one!...I know...we're not helping!

Pfft. I wonder if she thought we would actually talk her out of it =P

I don't think so!
You guys are about as helpful as my friend. She wants me to breed a mate for her girl. :p In the space of about 30 mins she had me almost all the way convinced. This morning i've put Bailee in Cookie's cage, and Gracie with Snickyboo. No nest box yet, they need to get in the mood first...or rather Cookie does, lmao, Bailee's rearing to go.

If you want to get her in the mood, petting her on the back a lot will help! Assuming that she'll let you do it of course.

Just think of poor Gracie in a cage with Snickers, even if it is a big cage :p You don't think Snickers would try anything funny do you? Let us know what you decide :)

:lol: She barely even lets me give her head scratches anymore. I might just put the nest box up and let that do the job, both her and Bailee got extremely interested when i was wiping it out this morning, lol!!

they are probably thinking woohoo!! or at least Bailee would be!!!
I'm back to being 100% undecided. :p I was rearranging the perches and toys in the tiel cages this afternoon and as soon as Bailee glimpsed the nest box he went absolutely bananas, at me and especially at Gracie. If she were within 1m of him he went charging after her making his angry telephone sound.
I do remember this aspect of breeding but i don't know if i can bear it at the moment, lol. Hence my renewed indecision.

Well if you do, I'm sure you'll have no problem finding homes for them if they're all as cute as Snickers! :p

If you feel like Cookie and Bailee are capable of looking after babies again, and that you are capable of not worrying to much aswell! :p Then go for it! :)
You'll just have to put up with the changed Bailee again!! :rolleyes:
On the down side, will you be able to sell them all - if there will be any. And can you keep yourself from keeping them all...!? :lol:
I know were not really helping, but we know how good Cookie and Bailee are as parents!! :p:):p:):p

another helpless plead here....;)... I think you´ll find homes for the babies in the blink of an eye... if you were any closer I´d be there in a heartbeat and get a couple off of your hands...;)
I´m still waiting mine to want to go at it again and see if this time they end up hatching..
Still tempted but undecided. :p

hmmm hard choice....does he stay like it for long?
Well it's only in the last month really that he's permitted me to give him head scratches again. Prior to breeding he was a mega smoochy boy. :p

You're heading into spring Down Under so the days are getting longer. That should help Cookie get in the mood!
It's the 6th day of Spring in fact. ;) My favourite season.

So does that mean yes? :p

Yes of course that means yes! Bea is headed down that inextricable road to breeding! She keeps saying she is undecided yet she gets more and more prepared to go ahead. The subconscious mind occupies 95% of what we do. Even if she tells herself on a conscious level that she isn't going to...she's going to.
Please excuse me Bea for speaking about you in the third person...just think of it as your subconscious talking.
Bailee got some mega action this morning, and he knew what he was doing this time so there was no hopping on Cookie's back backwards or humping her wings. :p He is yet to learn any decency though, he perched on Cookie's back to sing a victory song when he was done...just like last time.
Snickers was watching intently in the cage next door. Just think of the awful habits Bailee is teaching his son. Gracie should be afraid, very afraid!!

You guys are tooo much!!!!! :D
He managed to do the deed without a victory song this morning. I was very proud of him. :p I put the nest box up yesterday, Cookie and Bailee are thrilled with it.
