The pair of rosa Bourkes I have in the shed cage have two eggs. That's Rocky and one of the new bourkes, which is now a proven hen (Rosie).
I hate to admit it but parakeets are more ready to breed when put in cages rather than in the aviary, perhaps they feel more secure. I still prefer them in the aviary.
The other Bourkes are doing nothing after their initial mating activity. The Rubino cock (that was Rosey) is renamed Pinky. As for the 'hen', I'll wait until I'm sure of the sex before I give her a name!
very good news
