I'm sure all of you know how I'm feeling right now. When is it safe to handle the babies? - like have a GOOD hold. I've been told around 3 weeks. Is this okay. I'm so in love with this little baby............

 

The mother is fantastic. I checked on her this afternoon and she is feeding the tiny little baby as it's crop is white. I can't believe how SMALL they are.

 

Aw Memonty it sounds exciting!

They come out the same size as the egg, don't they? They grow very quickly - you'll be amazed. (It is exciting.) I started to handle mine when they were feathered all over - I think it is about three weeks.
