My budgie doesn't have a foot ring?

Either the ring was removed, or the shaft was never ringed.

Then the waves were pulled by an unorganized breeder.

With some likelihood, the shaft is then derived from a breeding that is not operated with professional expertise.

It can then, but it does not have to be an inferior wave.

Unfortunately, today the “unqualified single-drauf-los-breed” door and gate is open.

The quality and health of German waves has been significantly worse for some time from year to year.

Many small and smallest breeders, as you often appear here too, lack the simplest basic knowledge of shaft hydration and especially in shaft breeding.

Missing breeding and correspondingly low-quality young birds are on the agenda.

In many cases, the breeding pairs are kept anti-animal.

For this reason, you should always only ring waves and acquire them in organised breeders or in local zoos.

Wave scales from other sources often have more or less hidden defects.

This also applies in particular to corrugations from the so-called “animal protection”.

The latter develops more and more into the sales platform for low-quality shaft tracts.

Also because today’s wave-slip holders are less and less aware of the wave-slip attitude.

They fail to acquire the basic knowledge of old literature.

On the contrary, they blindly trust the so-called “animalist” and then wake up at home when you realize that you have pulled over the table.
