Caruso All Grown Up

Post by MRobinson » Sat Oct 15, 2011 12:43 pm

Back in June I was looking for a male BCCB to go with my female. Another local here on the forums (Chase/Managermania) answered my post and provided me with a beautiful baby boy BCCB, one that loves to sing so much I named him Caruso.

I posted pictures of Caruso when he started his molt and now he's all finished and grown up, so I wanted to share his picture as he is today. Thank you, Chase, for providing me with such a beautiful and healthy boy BCCB !

Didn't he turn out nice?!

He is a beauty... I hope to be getting a pair on Monday but this male will have red cheek.

He is gorgeous! I'm waiting for my rccb boy to finish his molt. He looks very scruffy right now, but so cute. I love cordon bleus.

Very handsome....he sure was a cute baby!!! You should do a little toy version of his baby picture, that would be adorable. :D
