Bubs have fledged, look like little Elvis impersonators with the big hairdo's!! They are 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 wks the youngest is a bit of a mummys boy and is still in the nest with her!!

 

Very happy to look into the nest box this week and finally see some Pieds (as I got none from the above mating!) and see two pied bubs from a Lutino Hen and DF Dom Pied Cock. YAY

 

The grass is due to a finch deciding to share the nest box with them this week (laid egg, I removed, laid egg I removed, this morning 3 eggs, I give up!!) You may be able to see it in between the 3 budgie eggs :hap:

gorgeous babies

hard to imagine thats what mine will look like in 2 1/2 weeks.. just without the poofy hair

any chance the finch eggs are fertile?

I think the cock must have been opaline or hiding opaline in his genes.

:hap: Ohhhhhh I want the Green opaline babiessssss they are all so adorable, you are very lucky :rip: Will you be moving closer to me anytime soon?

yes actually!! Hoping to be moving to Darwin sometime soon, been looking at houses for sale up there lately but only on the computer.

They are typical little bi..... girls :hap: always using their beaks! Yep the parents were a Dom pied male (split opaline so we found out!!) and a green female. Was really expecting at least 1 pied but got the three terrors and 2 green normals- they have HUGE amounts of feathering though and fat as!!

they look strong and healthy congrats

they are beautiful , l love there colouring .
