Molting Fledges...getting some color!!!

Post by lnlovesorange » Wed Apr 08, 2015 11:46 am

Hey all!! My babies are molting... (OMG I'm finding little baby softy, down feathers EVERYWHERE!!!!) Anyway, I attached some pics you can see some spots coming in on this little babe, and My third, who I effectionately call Trey, is getting orange on his cheeks, and little spots on his flanks, but I didn't get a great picture of him yet, but when I do I will post. But check out this babe....
The other ones haven't changed too much yet, but I will post more photos later. It's so crazy how fast they grow!!! It's AMAZING to watch, I'm so glad I got to be a part of this Miraculous process....

Hi Ellen.
They are growing like weeds. Look at them, wow!
It is a wonderful experience to follow them on their journey from egg, to a real actual bird.

All my Societies and Zebras are going Spring-crazy. There are eggs everywhere. Sometines I think they forget where they layed them, and go lay somewhere else, lol.

Everybody is in a happy frisky mood. There are some wild chases in the flights, and everone is into nest building, some meaning serious business, some just for fun and practice. No wonder Spring is my favorite time of the year :-).
