Because if it was easy we wouldn't be doing it, simples!
Leroy Posted April 19, 2013 Report Posted April 19, 2013 When I kept budgies with my dad years ago we had problems with the sparrowhawks. They'd sit on the aviary or cling to the wire and scare the life out of the budgies. Even had some kill themselves flying away in panic. Also still a chance of breathing problems for the fancier from the feather dust. Stick with the pigeons! :-) Lee
