these two were fostered (as eggs) under another pair of bourkes, these are related to the ones that come from the normal split ino and fallow and rosey dad and the Rosey split to fallow (also from a blue series background) mom.

Thank you both!! Bourkes are gentle, sweet birds. Some of the males are even talking a little. Some of my males are very curious and get very close, enjoying them!!

I have another Rosey/fallow pair on eggs. Two Lutino-Rosey pairs set up too!
