January 8, 200718 yr Author Baby one is soooo gorgeous!! She's a big chick too....and she bites Do you think baby number four is a dom pied too ? Edited January 8, 200718 yr by Bubbles
January 8, 200718 yr I agree, Golly is gorgeous, and baby 3 looks like it will feather up nicely too.
January 8, 200718 yr Author I agree, Golly is gorgeous, and baby 3 looks like it will feather up nicely too. Baby number three looks a lot like their half sister Crystal seen here at 5 weeks and now at 7 months (seen with her mother Jade) Possibly baby three will look like this one Edited January 9, 200718 yr by Bubbles
January 8, 200718 yr Aww, they're so cute!! It's amazing how fast their feathers come in. How far apart were the hatch dates between #1 & #5? ~~~ Kali
January 8, 200718 yr Great pics , I love the blue pied's , my favourites . I have 2 chicks just hatched in 1 nest box that I have my fingers crossed for , hoping for a box full of pieds
January 8, 200718 yr Interesting that no pied spangles are showing up. Golly is a nice one and I agree number three will look like Crystal.
January 8, 200718 yr I just love their little spikey tails and fluffy feathers Baby #3 is just beautiful! Skyblue opaline spangle???
January 8, 200718 yr Author I just love their little spikey tails and fluffy feathers Baby #3 is just beautiful! Skyblue opaline spangle??? YES clever one Looks that way Aww, they're so cute!! It's amazing how fast their feathers come in. How far apart were the hatch dates between #1 & #5? ~~~ Kali There was 8 eggs and some didnt hatch, so a huge gap when baby number five showed up. Roughly 15 days difference I think. Baby #5 was so little in that nest of huge babies so I fostered it to a mum that just had eggs. I put the newborn in with the foster mum with the eggshells and all and "mum" thought it was one of hers hatched out already. Interesting that no pied spangles are showing up. Golly is a nice one and I agree number three will look like Crystal. What do you think baby number 4 might be. Middle two tail pin feathers might mean spangle but wing pin feathers are blotchy like pied ?? maybe ?
January 9, 200718 yr Kazza...what can we say? Nothing we say will ever compare to their gorgeous colours!!! They look very great, and i can't wait to see what babies 3 and 4 are I'm thinking baby 3 is a opaline spangle like Crystal, and baby 4 is a dominant pied spangle... Let's see in few days we'll be able to tell! (Laughing out loud) Kirby Edited January 9, 200718 yr by Kirby
January 9, 200718 yr your babies are beautiful . l know one thing for sure , when they get all their feathers in they will be absolutely gorgeous
January 9, 200718 yr Author Golly fledged today but maybe a bit too soon so I popped her back in the nestbox. She is HUGE !!
January 9, 200718 yr oh my that Golly is growing up more and more beautiful each day!!! soooo pretty!!! I want her... *hint hint*... hehe.. kidding.. (Laughing out loud)
January 9, 200718 yr Author oh my that Golly is growing up more and more beautiful each day!!! soooo pretty!!! I want her... *hint hint*... hehe.. kidding.. LOL CHEETA....your Christmas present is ready Come get me Mommie ...I am waiting
January 9, 200718 yr Don't worry Otis, Mommie is coming very soon!!! I am going to name him Otis if you don't mind since I have another chrissy pressie named Milo.. so now I'll have Milo and Otis... hopefully both boys.
January 11, 200718 yr Author Both dominant pied babies out today. Golly comes out every day for the past four days. Must be getting cramped in the nestbox Big babies and Mum and Dad in there....and Goliath's not exactly a small budgie
January 11, 200718 yr Cheeta you are a lucky girl, love the name too. Bubbles I don't think number 4 is a spangle the two middle tail feathers are black not white.
January 11, 200718 yr Author Cheeta you are a lucky girl, love the name too. Bubbles I don't think number 4 is a spangle the two middle tail feathers are black not white. Might just be a normal then. Too soon to tell. Will know more by the weekend
