Two babies in the nest of Atlas and Bloo are developing large pied spots on the back of their heads and maybe spangle wing markings also. Photos to come. Sadie and Slicks 6 babies are all doing fine....lotsa yellow in that nestbox before and after Goliath is in love with another girl not his partner Jade ...........more updates to follow tomorrow Edited November 27, 200618 yr by Bubbles

November 25, 200618 yr How come you seem to have the most stunning budgies ever!! :(Laughing out loud): Sorry to hear about the little baby. I hope the others do well with the hand feedings.
November 25, 200618 yr Amazing isn't it Bea Hugs about the little one rip baby. Everyone looks wonderful! You are being a great mum.
November 25, 200618 yr Author More sad news. The next creamino baby died also this evening, despite all attempts to save it The older babies so far are good.
November 25, 200618 yr Thats so sad. Poor babies, straight to budgie heaven. I hope the rest do okay.
November 27, 200618 yr Author A very bad day. The eldest baby of Honey and Luigi lost its fight for life...the YF cobalt opaline spangle. Not even antibiotics and a special formula could help this little one. I tried very hard to keep him going but he passed on earlier today. Photo taken a week ago There are 3 babies left from Honey and Luigi's six babies. The two I am still handfeeding and the youngest fostered in Romeo's nestbox. Duckie (male) and Kwackers (female) Please excuse the messy babies. They have dinner faces on *************************************************************************** *************************************************************************** On a lighter note....there are 6 babies in Slick and Sadie's box doing well. Before photo and now... Mum....Sadie Dad...Slick
November 27, 200618 yr hugs Karen can you tell us exactly what you did for the eldest? You had him on antibiotics for? Just curious, I know you do everything to keep these little ones going, but so I understand . Also glad everything else is going well with the other ones. again hugs on those losses I know how heartbreaking it is for you
November 27, 200618 yr Author hugs Karen can you tell us exactly what you did for the eldest? You had him on antibiotics for? Just curious, I know you do everything to keep these little ones going, but so I understand . Also glad everything else is going well with the other ones. again hugs on those losses I know how heartbreaking it is for you The eldest baby contracted an infection, making his droppings a rusty reddish brown colour. As fast as food went in, it past through. So he was losing ground very fast. The antibiotic was to try and fix that but it was too late and it had no time to work properly. The other two have no infections. Edited November 27, 200618 yr by Bubbles
November 27, 200618 yr well that is GOOD to hear about the other 2, so sad they are so delicate ((hugs))
November 28, 200618 yr Author Delicate Yes.....at the time when parents reject they are very low in immunity and resistance. Today I am pushing to meet a deadline with work and have slashed open the back of my hand.....so have to pull it together for now and get stitches later. Deadline comes first. What do you think of the yellow pieds ?
November 28, 200618 yr take care of your hand and what yellow pieds I must NOT look as they are my favorite YF2 recessive (coughs) PIEDS
November 28, 200618 yr Author take care of your hand and what yellow pieds I must NOT look as they are my favorite YF2 recessive (coughs) PIEDS :hap: What yellow pieds ? I see no yellow pieds just this sea of yellow PS was too busy for the doctors. Hand will have to heal itself :hap:
November 28, 200618 yr *wags fingers* Karen your health is important get your hand seen to ASAP. I like the dark bub in that last group will be interesting to see what he will be like in a few weeks.
November 28, 200618 yr Author Yes....dark baby is interesting. I have just checked and it seems to have skyblue colour to tummy area with YF and rec pied wing markings ?? Most secondary colouring on these babies is olivegreen or greygreen with the yellow...blue based colour to one baby. Looks like Daddy budgie's colouring has ruled here. Re cut hand.....have resorted to tape and looking for the superglue .......easier than trying for doctors appointment or sitting at a hospital waiting roon for more than half a day.

November 29, 200618 yr I see my christmas stocking stuffing there!! Interesting that you have a blue boy.. that would mean that the daddy is split for blue then. and it seems that both parents are split to yellowface too. or is that just daddy? Umm hmm can't remember is Yellowface blue dominant or recessive over white face blue? anyone?
