| My White Headed Munia Pair | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| My Munias had not been looking like they are going breed. The main reason was that I was not sold a pair - but instead two males. This made for interesting viewing as they competed against each other in their displaying. But I eventually thought I should replace one with a female. I finally found one, they are not an easy bird to sex so I was very pleased to find one that was obviously a mature bird with a "dirtier" head. Hopefully this pairing will lead to some success. The male has been displaying well and they do look like the get along quite well. |
