And Here Are The Littlies

Hi everyone,

 

Here are some photos of my newest three in the family. They are still being handraised and have been speeding through growth like there's no tomorrow. I love the greys and the spangles, so I was thrilled to find two grey spangled babies (and both carrying recessive pied too). They're about 4 weeks old now - give or take a day or two.

 

Haven't quite decided if I'm going to use the names in the pics yet - you'll know why when you see them :hap: So if anyone has some suggestions, throw 'em in.

 

This is Mr Grey Spangles. I think it is a 'he', but let me know if I'm wrong.

These two pics are of Bar gie. I believe this one's a 'she'

And this is Lutea. She comes from an Opaline dark green cock and a sky blue recessive pied hen (if my memory of the parents serve me correctly). Since both parents aren't lutinos, I believe it has to be a 'she' ??

Can't wait till they are up and out of the 'nest' doing budgie things.

That 1st picture is soooo cute of Lutea and love the name.

awww, what cuties! I also do love that first picture of Lutea... love the little feathers sticking out.. hehe

Thanks all. Lutea is very quickly becoming a favourite here and starting to show her 'English' heritage (just part only) - she is unfortunately the messiest one to feed ... anyone knows where I can budgie sized bibs?

 

They will all be indoor pets to be spoilt rotten and then maybe one day, just maybe ... when I can't control my urge to let those hidden genes lurking on their chromosomes express themselves, I'll let them become parents :) Just don't anyone here encourage me :ausb:
