Out of the first nest dropped 4 eggs, 2 broke but 2 did not. I took those 2 and my Soc's incubated them. 2 babies hatched but one did not do well and died after the first day.
The second is doing well so far -- the Soc's are not feeding him really good but they are feeding him some so I am supplementing him.
Anyway, the reason for this post is to show everyone the neon red pearls that Blackbelly Fire Finches have (and maybe others too?? -- I just haven't had any babies from my red-billed FF's yet so I don't know for sure.)
Here are pictures of the little guy below.


(BTW: He has kind of a dirty mug from me feeding him -- I took the pictures before I wiped him off.
