Beautiful fledgling PF, JohnBoy!

Funny story about the bright green color of PF's... I put my last PF fledglings in with the rest of the juvies once they weaned and the Star juvies followed them around craning their necks to look at them and 'tasting' them to see if that green wasn't something edible.

It was hilarious! :mrgreen: (Of course, the PF's were not amused by getting their feathers pulled on so much at first). :shock:

Lots of Red Throat Parrot Finches, Forbes, Gouldians, BCCB's, RCCB's, Owls, Societies, and BB Fires. Plus, one wonderful 15 year old son, one wonderful husband and two rotten-to-the-core Border Terriers.

Congrats! Cute little one and nicely feathered too. Mine always spring from the nest looking like vultures and forget trying to put them back. They jump out like popcorn as soon as you not looking.
