Took some pictures in the aviary today of some of my juvies that are beginning to color. I am amazed at how many hens I have this time. Normally I get more males..... They are all looking so cute and I even have a few white breasted!!!

What cuties and you sure have a nice variety. I love that zig zag white pattern

They are adorable. Boy, I wasn't that interested in gouldians until I started reading and seeing them on the forum. The colors interest me.

Too cute. That second pic with them colouring out orange/red makes it look like they have a case of the chicken pox!

I can't wait to see the final results! I have many right now coloring up too - including all the hand feds from this summer

They look adorable Donna

I can't wait to see mine start to get color. I just have my older normal baby getting some color on his head, but that's about it. I Adore Gouldians but they do take soooo long to color up.

The only consilation is it will be fun to know if my guessing was correct

Looks like someone dipped a brush in some paint and shook it to splatter paint all over the birds!

They are sweet aw always!

Such an amazing transformation. It's unbelievable how the plain looking young birds turn into some of the most beautiful birds ever. Man ! looks like every body here is enjoying the experience of having baby birds, EXCEPT me

How exciting... My babies are still greenish grey... Its taking FOREVER...
I think they are around 5 mths. now... Anyhow, one is getting a few small specks of color aroung the cheek area. What is the 1st area to start to change? You mentioned head area... Is that the norm? I have one that has a squawky chatter... I guess that would be a male, he started singing about a week ago...
Thanks..
Adrienne

Same here. But I still prefer the normals.

Your juvies are absolutely spectacular!

Thanks ! These juvies still have not colored up. Two of the hens are completely molted, but not the others.

Donna, you do such a great job with your birds. They are fantastic looking! I can't wait until mine fledge and I can see how many/what colors I have. Like an Easter Egg hunt!

The 'patience' part is the downside, though
