Thank you, everybody. I am so pleased with these two and their baby raising skills.

I wish they would rub off on my CB's! :?

Anna that second sleepy pic is precious. Congrats on the babies! Owls really are not that easy to breed as I am finding out...

Any secrets you can share to your success? Was this pair housed by themselves?
