Here are some of my babies to date. I have had a bad year till now. Out of all the birds I put down earlier I got one from one nest and 3 from another and all other nest all clear. Then I got 19 more babies so I have 25 all up. I have lots quite a few at one day old.

Here is a nest of 4 from a light green cock and cobalt hen.

And then I have 3 out of my yellow DF spangle and cobalt spangle hen the parents of my white DF spangles

There was a white DF spangle Cock no picture

Cobalt Spangle no picture

and a dark green spangle and he is going to be a stunner he has heaps of feather and is big, I thought he was a mop at first because of the length of feather and huge head.

Sorry GB not teasing, it's a real shame about your grey escaping.

Thanks Anne just hope they turn out good B) but so far they are promising :D

i know just your not joking

its my own stuiped fault i lost that bird bad manigment i was distracted when doing the feeding rounds by my daughter

normally i make sure they leave me alone while i do my rounds but we had just moved and she wasnt settled yet so kept wanting me so i was rushing to get it done and did not check the door on holding cage

could have lost them all i was gone a good five minites

the kids know not to desturb me now i was so upset for weeks so now i tell them im going to do rounds if you want something tell me now they know it takes me a good few hours to clean each breeding cage and food water change check the birds over and clean all chicks and nest boxes

got rutine back so hopeful;ly no more loses
