Awe Debbie, those babies are so cute! It almost makes me want another little hook-bill... until I realize how much work a hand fed hookbill is, and how demanding they can be (like all the time!)

I think I'll stick with my finches...I've got my little hand-fed Zebra... she's demanding enough! lol

The little society I bought from you, produced 3 chicks with my hen, and one of them crested! :) They are doing great!

They are adorable, I love it as they feather out! I miss that, any time I need a baby fix I go to see my friend. Having one at home is enough for me right now!! Though it is tempting to get a pair or two!!

LMAO, you all are a hoot!!!! You need to start a support group for each other. We might all need to attend sessions after we get kicked out of our homes (with our birds!). :lol:

To G8Love: Beautiful babies! :) You are like a hand-feeding queen! You always wean the most perfect looking hookbills. All the babies look great and I can't wait to see them all fully feathered. :) Thank you for always sharing your successes and joy! It's so fun to follow your "chronicles" of from egg-to babies! =D> :mrgreen:
God is my redeemer and it is through Him I have found eternal happiness. I am grateful, I am blessed, and I am truly loved. I wish all this and more for all members of our finch forum family. May you all be blessed and highly favored. <3

~*Friend, companion, and caretaker for too many birds to count.*~
