Where's Merkin....

 

Top Picture Bea he is back left with Greeny (Mum).

 

Kurby this isn't the nursary. This is the breeding cage less the nest box.

 

Poka and Axel are 38 and 36 days old. They will be going on Tuesday. The others will join them through the week. Mum will stay in the box alone for another week after that to recover. She has been in the breeding cage for 133 days. Mostly taking care of chicks. It is her time to get her strength back before going back to the flight. for the rest of the year.

Good job Daz...they are absolutely stunning!!!

Isnt that the box you made for the babies before they go in aviary?.....

 

Kirby :(

Oooohhh! I see Merkin now. :( So cute!

Just an update

 

Three of the chicks are gone one to Nerwen (poka), One to Karen (Biff) and I sold one to a family that saw the photos on my web site (Axel).

 

Abu and Merkin have now joined the flock in the Flight.
