Thanks!!! What does this mean? "but i know you see the smallest of things so I believe you"...? (Laughing out loud) ITS AMAZING!!!! I THINK BABIES ARE UNDER COVER SUPERHEROES!!!! She was amrked up from bleeding on her neck AND wing..and BOTH SCABS ARE GONE and healed 200%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You could never tell she was hurtt and bleeding just 11 hours ago!!! Its amazing! ALSO!!! Diego was crying a bit even though he was fed, but his mouth was open a lot. So i thought "Hey why not see if *** eat the handrearing mix now?" So i made up a small bacth..and he LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He didnt want me to stop! But i had to becuase he was about to burst! Baby Sye is still wayy to tini...to try it as she doesnt open her mouth...but shes being fed well So im fine with that...(Laughing out loud). Thats just an update for you all...and i still cannot belive how HUGE DIEGO IS!!!!!!!! Hes sooo massive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! His foot is the size of Skyes lil face! And hes only a day older! (Laughing out loud) Kirby

hehe Isnt he? Hes also very broad and large...and Skye is tini and pette Skye is premature i think. Becuase she is 2 days early...and VERY TINI... Shes even smaller than the eggs (i know she fit inside one less that 10 hours ago...but she could have helped her bieng in it for a few more days) Kirby

Introducing... ~Skye~ (With Diego ) Wheres mum Sis? ...I dunno, im pooped! Literally! OUCH!!! Your hurting me Diego! I told ya im pooped! I left this wee green surpirse for the crazy guy who loves us so much! Man...being a baby is tough stuff! Its okay Skye..ive got you now (You can see his wing layed over Skyes head...)..Also..you can see whe Skye was bleeding...if you look on her right wing... does it look okay to you guys? To me it looks clenched in...but she does open it sometimes... Then a quick video of the pair . . . http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e104/pet...nt=MVC-005V.flv ENJOY!!!! Kirby

WHIPEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GORGEOUS!!!!! HE LOOKS LIKE MY EMMA BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Except Emma is a yellow face type II skyblue cinnamon opaline hen (Laughing out loud) Ive got just the names for you dear! However ive narrowed the million in my head to the fallowing that would suit him PERFECTLY!!! Here they are: Kirby, Max, Benji, Oscar, Milo, Gabriel, Petey, Lance, Victor, Hugo, Lilo, Percy, Sammy, Piper, Lokie, Cujo, Monty, Beau, Nemo, Hank, Acqua, Marine (hehe Nerwen ), Rocky, Mickey, Junoir, Cameo, Pearl (yes can be a males name), Minty, Peppermint AKA Pepper or Pepe....or Toby Kirby

Whipeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Egg numero 2 is alive!!!!! I was kinda scared though becuase he hatched and was bleeding... so i think the shell scraped his sensitive baby body... His one wing (i beleive it is his right) isnt as open as the other yet...but well see.... I had to help baby 2 come out fully as he was stuck (neck was being squished...and he was crying for a good hour So i pulled off the rest of the shell and he emerged into the world Crying away, cuddling with Diego. It looks like they are hugging becuase baby 2 is laying down, then Deigo is ontop of him keeping him warm So far both are healthy, and lil Diego is HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Diego is being fed greatly!! And not yet baby 2 as shes only been born 25 minutes ago...so i hope when she starts crying Belle will clue in You can DEFINTELY tell Diego a 1st born As for baby 2 name wise.. ill show you later with piccies Kirby

Thanks guys! Baby #2 isnt out yet...nor has he continued hatching... So im thinking maybe Belles claw got at the shell so it looks like hes hatching...but then again it is due tomrrow so i will keep you posted Kirby

HAHAHAH I WAS THINKING OF THAT TOO!!! Becuase i have a webcam! I have not check on baby 2 yet (as in if it hatched...) but i will soon ! ! ! Kirby

YAY!!! I told ya its full!!!!! Im soo thrilled! And i actually can sleep becuase i am at the computer all day and my eyes hurt by the end (Laughing out loud)...but i wake up early becuase my dog is licking my face tyring to wake me up for a early walk Im soo happy about him eating though! I mixed in the handfeeding powder, with Prime viatims, in the seed dish...and Kirby is eating it well now...so i think its helping Belle make the milk to feed Diego... Ive got many other names now to name the next babies... I wont let ya know which one i pick..but im leaning towards Skye, Lilly, Daisy, Paris, Sydney, Stella, or Piper... Kirby

Thanks mate! Hes very special to me already I just checked on him..and his crop is HUGE!!! :D ALSO!!!...egg #2 is starting o hatch!!! Theres a tini spot where his egg tooth has started cracking the shell So ill have 2 gorgeous babiesi n the morning!!! What a nice surprise it will be to wake up on a nice Saterday morning (Hopefully *** be out by then...) (Laughing out loud) Kirby

Which? Kirb

Ahhh yes! I recall you saying to us "Ive got a name picked out already but will wait until it hatches"... I love it!!! Kirby

Thanks a bunch!!! ISNT HE ADORBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He totally stood p and gave you guys a little show of what hes like usually! His lil wings are almost ALWAYS spread out...or flapping! ITS ADORABLE!!!! ps- Im not sure why the pics of his parents are big...even though i reseized them the same size as i did all the others... Kirby

WHIPEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love her! Is that her name? Cupid? If so...i want to steal it!!! jk (Laughing out loud) Best of luck...and our babies were only born less than 1 day apart!!! Kirbs

Thanks guys! I couldnt have done it without you guys! Hes got a new name... See new thread called "Baby Journal..." in Breeders Chat MANY NEW PICS!!!!! And notice the full crop hes got going now Kirb

Hey guys!!! So, ive now got a name for the 1st baby...his name is ~Diego~. Here are some piccies of him today... Then two videos of the Royal Cutey Pie himself... http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e104/pet...¤t=MVC-002V.flv http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e104/pet...¤t=MVC-009V.flv And his gorgeous parents... Dad Kirby... Mum Belle...(watching me taking pics of baby Diego whos in the concave)... ENJOY!!! Kirby

HAHAHA I dont know he'll be that colour but im guessing...and i also dont know he'll be a boy...but whatever (Laughing out loud) Im starting a new post... I took nw pics...(Look for it under Breeders Chat still)... Kirb

Oh Nerwen!!! I jut cnadled 3rd egg lastnight and saw no movement..until i looked VERY HARD...and saw babys heart beating!!! Hes due on sunday..but i have a feeling tonight or tomrrow night *** hatch...Cosmo, thats only true when he makes an initial crack. I look at the eggs VERY well ALL over...and if yu look VERY closely you can see a bump...with a TINI line...thats the cracking the eggtooth is making...thats the only time you can hear sounds...and then on of course as it continues to hatch... BEST OF LUCK NERWEN!!!! WERE ALL PRAYING FOR YOU HERE IN CANADA!!!! Kirby

Thanks to you guys soooo much for guiding me through this weird experience...when i rbed before it was NOTHING like this. I put a nest box in, they mated same day, 8 eggs 9 days later...all healthy...didnt worry about air in crop, they were all fed right away...grew healthy, h appy, then went to great homes... Unlike this time, ive already been stessed more at this point and baby is only 1 dy old than the 6 weeks it took bfore i sold other babies (Laughing out loud) Oh well...this is a GREAT learning experience... The air in his crop formed a bigger bubble...but i peeked in a tini peep hole in the box and Belle was feeding him so it may have escaped out of his lil crop. What do i do if there is indeed a big bubble? Thanks! Ive deicded to name this baby a different name...I REALLY like the name (im assuming hes a male) Toby, or Uno as Uno means '1st'...(even thought hes 2nd, still the oldest baby...) What do you think? Uno or Toby? Hes going to be blue...with probably a yellow face i think... Kirby

Hehe thanks guys!!!!! Im very excited....howd you know? I heard a nasty noise ocming out of the box...so i had to look in. It was baby nibblingo n Belles feet!!! HAHAHAHA It was so cute! Belle was so confused, and so was baby. Anyways, Abba let go...and he flipped over, exposong his gorgeous full crop There are many tini wee bubbles in his crop...are they bad? Or is it only bad when theres a huge one? Thanks guys!!! Kirb

Yay thanks!!! Abba is FAT!!!!!!!!! Belle is feeding him like theres no tomrrow!! :( Very snuggly with the fellow eggs...and Belles being great to him There was air in his crop before, but its now gone ... Thanks for all your advice...and im going to do what you suggest...as i know Belle would appreciate not seeing me, and baby would be more ocmforyable in a dark nest for a while...until baby sister hacthes :D (Laughing out loud) Kirby

BEST OF LUCK NERWEN!!!!! Im praying for you just as you prayed for me, and good things happened...so i hope the same happens to you and Tooties egg's Dont worry *** do it! Candle him...is he moving? When i cnadled egg 1, and 2gg 2 the day before they hatched..both were moving (their head, wings, and feet)...did you see movement? HOPEFULLY HE HATCHES!!!!!!! Kirby

Your so right about wanting a healthy clutch for over 2 years now...So i hope it gets better now and the remaining 6 eggs hatch, and all 7 fledge healthy Im going to go check on baby, and clean my room as the guy coming for the fish tanks comes in an hour...and ive got to clean my room, clean the tank a bit, walk my dog, vacum, and get things ready to give to the guy whos buying the tank... Ill be back on in about 2 hours probably... Bye guys! ps- Does everyone like the name Abba or no? I dont but i know it will grow on me...and its funny becuase he was born on Thursday (which is today)... Kirby

Hey guys... Baby 2 is doing great! Crop still has food in it...beeing sat on well. Im just worried as Belle is sitting VERY snug on him, and i have a feeling *** have splayed legs But thats fixable with Kazza's makeup sponge technique Hopefully... Iv decided on names by the way!!!! Id like to Introduce you to Abba!!! Which means 'born on thursday' (which he was) in aborigional names He's a lil charmer i tell ya...(see food in crop?) http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e104/pet.../MVC-002F-2.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e104/pet.../MVC-003F-2.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e104/pet.../MVC-012F-1.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e104/pet.../MVC-004F-3.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e104/pet.../MVC-007F-3.jpg Then about school...ive been home for 3 hours now...and its 6:15pm right now. Someone is ocming over to buy my 15g saltwater fish tank at 8:00pm...and im watchin 'Survivor" the show at 8pm once the guy leaves. As for school tomrrow..im really not feeling well (ive had a bad cold the past 8 days or so, but its really getting bad now... my mom said i look terrible tonight, and i feel very sore, tired, and exhusted (ive done nothin to make me sore excpet waling home from school) so its weird. But its becuase my immune system isnt that great at the moment as im on hardcore medicine. So i want to stay home tomrrow...and sleep, and watch for baby and make sures hes safe. And just htought id note i didnt even think this guy would hatch today as its only day 17...and the other one hatched day 17 to weird eh! Both under the normal time...
