Nice move. Momma gouldians can be heck-on-wheels when they sit tight on a clutch and drive the juvies out. Great job on doing the cage shifting right on time!

Not all gouldians can tolerate the juvies. Elana's kids are good at staying with the parents for a lifetime, but I think she has some kind of ZEN wonderful wand she waves. :-*

I've learned from her and Debbie and Matcat on gouldians, but I've yet to have a female that tolerates her juvies with their next clutch in the same cage.

Pictures are beautiful!

Three of the four are definitely males. They have done the male singing song. I haven't heard a peep out of the last one so far. It would be nice to have one female out of the clutch.
