Constructing a photo box
Does any one have ideas about constructing a photo box. Without wire and that has a very nice back ground?

Phil
I just took a large cardboard box, cut the flaps off, painted the inside black, then taped a piece of white paper on the back for a background.
If the bird was white, I took down the white paper.
Cheap & easy.
My birds seem to feel at ease in the box, at least long enough to take a picture.

I believe it's Smoky Recessive Red Indigo but I am not 100% sure of the Indigo.
Why do you ask?

Re: Constructing a photo box
That's why I suspect she's Indigo Recessive Red. Her dad was Indigo and mom was Recessive Red. Normally, Laudinos have only unimproved recessive red in them. It's not that nice, but if she is Indigo as well, Indigo enhances reds. That's why I think she is Indigo.
