If I were you, I would hang on to your youngsters until after their first molt is completed.
Unmolted Gouldian young are somewhat delicate, and tend to experience problems when moved around before they are old enough.
Good luck.

Re: Young Gouldians.
There is a window of time between weaning and the start of the juvenile molt that allows young Gouldians to be moved without harm. I have been raising 50+ Gouldians a year for 20+ years, and take great care in placing my birds. Note my ad says for experienced birders.

Yes, I noticed your comment regarding experienced birders.
With all due respect, I had no idea that you have been breeding Gouldians for such a extended period of time.
The reason I mentioned what I did, is because too many folks sell and buy juvie Gouldians, only to lose them during their first moult due to the stress of rehoming very young birds who become stuck in moult or outright die.
