All Four Babies Are Doing Well :-)

Pearl and Smudge accepted the little "stranger", and all four babies are doing well. As expected, I can't even tell them apart now, so I'll have to be extra careful if I breed any of the offspring later on. But that's okay. I'd rather deal with a mixed clutch than have a non-surviving chick. :-)

Whisper and Creamsicle are on 4 eggs, and Shelly and Sunset are on 5 eggs. It's too soon to tell if they're viable, but both sets of parents seem to be incubating.

Frostie and Streak's 2 youngsters are doing fine, best as I can tell. They're at the age where I can't peek into the nest without risking them panicking and fledging too soon. I hear them begging LOUD AND CLEAR, though. LOL! They should be out of the nest very soon.

  1. Lisa, glad all four babies are doing well. I am sorry you lost the one little bird but happy you saved the other. I hope that your birds keep doing well.

    Cheers,
