I was wondering about the societies as well. :? My pair were used by their last owner to raise gouldians, and since I have had them, they have raised shaftails and zebras....so I am guessing that it depends on each individual bird.

But aren't shaftails and zebras still pink/pinkish?
Not BLACK like the CBs are?

I mean they are extraordinarily different looking..

Are the two chicks too old to put young chicks with now? I would divide the CB chicks in two groups, one with the virgin pair, one with the gouldian foster pair.
Zebra, Orange cheeks, Owls, Gouldians, Blue-Capped Cordon Bleus, Goldbreasts, Black Face Fires, & Button Quail

The Gouldian foster pair is already raising two chicks.. one hatched 2/13, the other 2/21, so there is already a huge age difference in these two chicks alone.
I couldn't add newly hatched babies :/
That pair really needs a rest, too.. I was resting them when I gave them the 2/13 baby but was desperate..
