I do believe Sundance and Cassidie finally have the hang of raising their own babies. =D>

Doesn't it just make your day when they finally figure it out. Looks like they are doing an excellent parenting job... Stuffed full :D
Are those fawns?

Thank you everyone! It's a real relief when young finches get their act together and start looking after their own young and I won't have to use foster birds for these in the future. =D>

No Candace, I don't think I can get fawns out of these parents. According to:
http://www.birdbazaar.com/BB-ColorGenetics.htm
they will be males split to Creamino or normal females.

Parents are Creamino hen and (probably) normal male.

Ah, split to cream is good :D
I was just curious because they looked so light and reddish. Pretty chicks.
