They are looking great David. I'm so glad your babies Daddy is looking after them so well. My babies Daddy tried to pull them out of the nest and drown them.

Looking forward to more cute pictures.

MiaCarter-

Thank you so much! Sorry I didn't have time reply you back last two days because was busy my side. I'm happy to see your forum :D

Indeed the babies are really fun to see and excited for me too, even I've been watching the other clutches before but still feels like first time to see them peek out of nest! I hope your three babies fledgling soon :) let me know about them too.

For my first brave baby out of the 4, fledgling bad can't verb jump on perches yet but land on cage floor afterward lol! One by one and seems like the dad was teaching them or give encouragement as they looking at them. All of the 4 babies was on the floor within 2 days since 2 out first day and other 2 next day. They stay in the corner together near the edge of the cage floor. Then begging for food whenever see the daddy, even when not hungry but still open it's mouth oh my god! I was feeding the daddy a lot of good food, the babies are getting bigger and puffer now too!


Daddy bird is very responsible to the babies, the mom still next to his cage, but good thing no more plucking hehe. I will do my best to feed the daddy and let the babies grow healthier too. :D

Lovezebs,

Thanks for your kindness words, the daddy is really a good parent and did it all by himself. Just busy jump from one place to another to get food and feeding the babies lol!

I hope your babies daddy is not doing something like that again :( poor babies. Is there any other birds who will look after the current babies instead of hurting them? I heard that society finches will be foster parents, maybe try if these birds can help? I will post more pic tomorrow here. Good luck to your birds too, and let me know how things going as well. :)

How are your babies doing?
My three came out of the nest yesterday.
Yes, the Societies have been looking after them and caring for then . They have done a wonderful job. The actual parents, had to be moved to another cage. They already have three new eggs, but not sitting in them.

Hi Elana, at least I know your name now.

Your baby bird is very cute!!! I am glad that your societies take care of the 3 babies and moved the original parents. :) my babies finch doing well, this pic is the best I could take between the cage bar b/c they stress out. 3 of them inside the nest but only one is outside brave enough looking at my camera lol. They are so adorable, can't wait to see more pic from you when it's getting bigger too!
