Wow! I am surprised at what I found once the hen got out of the nest.... there were 9 eggs in the nest.
Next day one of the eggs was on the floor of the flight so I checked the nest again and found 3 hatchlings and 5 other eggs. I can see in this photo that 2 of the eggs are no good maybe 2 more will hatch....
I purchased this flight cage and 5 Gouldians for $125 all males are OH with 2 w/PB and 1w/WB, 2 hens OH
w/PB and WB.

Congratulations Sherry.
Wow, what a wonderful deal . Here in the Pet shop you wouldn't be able to get even one Gouldian for that price. Lucky lady. I would have snapped that up in a heart beat.
Those babies are nice and plump, beautiful
