Just one, but one is better than none. This is from the original imported pair.

I'll update here as it progresses.

Congrats! Maybe now they've figured it out, they'll continue to produce.

Baby appears to be doing well. I would post a picture if I knew how to do it from my phone.

The day after I posted the baby doing well, I found it at the bottom of the cage dead.

My son plays a brass instrument and he marched into the room the pair was in and "honked" really loud. He should have known better) I can't say that's what did it... But everything was going too well until my that point. The baby was loud and healthy before that point.

:(

They are sitting on more eggs and I have since moved another cage/pair into the now dedicated "bird room" (where music is off limits)

I'm sorry you lost your baby but I wouldn't be so quick to lay blame.
Growing up my canaries loved the sound of brass instruments. The male would often try to compete!

How disappointing. But hope your next clutch is more successful. All the best
