Here's Turkey! ;-)

Here's the baby bird I'm calling "Turkey".  It hatched just before Thanksgiving.  I've banded it with a pink band.  :-)

I've got two other hatchlings in that same cage (different nest).  They hatched on approximately 11/27/12.  I'll get them banded when they're a little larger, to help make sure the bands don't slip off their tiny legs.

Cage #1 has 3 viable eggs, 1 egg that I'm not sure about, and 1 dud egg.  The viable eggs should have another 7-9 days before hatching.  This is the trio whose last clutch was a flop (moth in their nest scared them out for too long and the eggs/hatchling got too cold), so hopefully things will go better this time.

The 4 babies in Cage #3 are doing great!  At least two of them are definitely crested.  I can't tell yet on the other two.  The youngest one's noggin is still just as bald as it can be! LOL!

Note to self:  Available band colors are red, purple, light blue, and gray.
