Thanks Babsi,
The feeding parents have done, and are doing a great job with these kids, annnnd....
Look what we have here...
Alittle green who popped out today, just while I was changing the papers in the flight.
This little sweetie came out fully flighted, and I had a heck of a time catching him to slip a band over his ankle and take a look at him, lol
And here he is:
Green #2 Fledgling, banded dark blue on left ankle.

At what age do you typically band them? I tried close-ringed banding my society finches at about ten days, but their toes didn't go in easily and they wouldn't stay still, so I had to give up. I compared the bands I purchased to my adult male society finch's band, and they were the same size, so I don't think that was the issue.

This time, because they chose this silly nest, I had to wait till they fledged, but usually younger.
I use a bit of olive oil over the knuckle to slide the little colour rings on. They are just little perler beads, cut in half and stretched out a bit .

Thank you! Looking back, I think that's what I was sold. Now I feel foolish for paying $5 for 500 beads...

Re: Monster Aliens In My Nest

Goodmorning Babs,
They appear to be somewhat shocked if anything
.
Other than the 'parents', I haven't seen anyone attempting to feed them so far.
However I did see a couple of 'get outta my way pecks' thrown in their general direction, but nothing of any great significance.
How are your kids doing?

Re: Monster Aliens In My Nest
Well another one came popping out today with a fluttuer and a plop to the floor of the flight.
A little smaller than the other three, but well fleshed and looking good.
Green #4 Fledgling, banded dark blue on left ankle.
