I noticed yesterday that both had been in the together a lot lately so I checked today. Babies!!!!
so they're 2 or three days old. Bullet and his mate were good parents last season so let's hope they remember what to do!

I will take a stab and say that you have yellows? Or is it blue that leads to the pale babies?

Banding Bullet's babies today. They're so soft and sweet I don't want to put them back in the nest. Still hard to believe these little ones can get so loud!

OOOOOO i wanna take a stab at these.
1. Your two yellow babies are RH, oh/-, PC/wc, YB/blue hens
2. Your two dark babies are PROBABLY RH/bh, oh/-, PC/w, Dilute(GB/YB)/blue cocks
3. The little middle one is the toughest... Depends if male or female. Given how white I'll guess RH, oh/-, PC/w, YB/DF blue (Silver) hen
Sorry about the colours... I had fun haha

I love the way they always scoot backwards with their butts in the air.

I haven't bred Gouldians (yet) but I can imagine it's like when you get a pack of hockey cards (or baseball cards for the 'Muricans
). You never know what you're going to get and you really really hope you get that rookie card!!

GouldianGuy funny... I used to go to card shows and sell baseball cards with an old friend. Yes, very exciting!

Well, I took out the juveniles this weekend and they are enjoying space in the flight cage. I noticed I didn't see Bullet or his mate lately so I decided to check on the new eggs.... I guess they were sitting on them longer than I thought
