Thanks everyone. It is a bit of a disapointment when it's your first try. The chick was okay at lunch time today so I hope things go alright for it.

It's 7:11am here at the moment. 13 deg c out side. We should be heading for 29deg c today. I'll wait till the temp warms up a bit and then take some shots. He/she is still okay this morning.

Thanks nerwen.

 

Both parents spend alot of time in the box. I am sure that the chick is not cold with all that warmth. The father seems to be doing a great job. All I ever see of him is at the seed dish or the fresh vegi dish or in the box.

 

I hope the other egg hatches soon or the chick might bully the younger one.

:D sounds likea wonderfull dad. DOn't panic about the young one been picked out budgies make sure (or try) that all the babies are feed, they can even changed the sort for each baby according to age.

Lovely to see the little star!
