Looks like a beautiful baby.
I love this age, when they are so curious and unafraid.

So the little Bleus are getting braver by the day =D> .

Looking forward to pictures of a room full of lovely birds!!!

Hi Everyone !!
Well my breeding experience ended up with 5 baby bleus and 3 baby Gouldians. No dead chicks or tossed chicks which I was very pleased about. I am still trying to get a good picture of the bleu family, but I did manage to get a picture of the three gouldian babies. The Gouldians are still being fed but picking at food on their own. The bleus are pretty much eating and drinking on their own. I do not think I could have done this without the help of members of this site, so thank you all for your great posts !!!

Thank-you so much Elana, once the Gouldian babies are weaned I am hoping to put my male owl in the flight room. He has been in Solitary confinement since Nov 1st. Still have not found a female for him, but that may take awhile. Thank-you again for all your help !! :D
