That's when they were expecting an extra little meal . I would pull them once a day, to giv ethe parents a little rest, and stuff those big mouths.

I loved it, they loved it, and the parents, they would heave a sigh of relief . It was like, take them, take them already, so that we can have a nice bath, eat something that we don't have to spit right up again, and have some quiet time, lol.

[Madcat]

Lol!!!! Fantastic !!!! Lol!!! I needed that laugh!!!

Hi Everyone.

A couple of more pictures of the two little newbies. They are settling in very nicely in their quarantine cage.

They are eating like there is no tomorrow, sleeping close together, and really enjoying taking turns on the swing.

The dark little fellow, is the slimmest , longest juvie that I've ever seen. Once he fiils out, he will be a big boy.

The light little one, is a really curious cutie, and is already starting to come close through the bars and calming right down.

Elana, they are beautiful!! I can't wait to see them in their full colours

Hate to tell you this, but I do believe they are two boys, lol.

Would you mind terribly if I name Mr skinny pants , Scout, after your poor lost girl ? Let me know. The light coloured baby, is being named Spirit.

Thanks Rox....

They are pretty babies.
I know what you mean about being impatient to see their adult colours, but that's part of the fun, isn't it, the not knowing .

Then one day all of a sudden, poof, ugly duckling wakes up a swan

Well, it's been several weeks since these babies had come home with me.

Would you please take a quck look at their pictures, and tell me what you think colour wise?

My dark boy (Scout), looks to me like he's going to be a normal RH PB GB. When he was younger, his back displayed an interesting shade, but I don't see that anymore.

My light girl (Spirit).... I still can't figure out. Any thoughts?

Thanks

[Madcat]

Oooo weeee!!! Nice birdies!!!

[lovezebs]

Madcat

Thanks. They are cute babies.

Any guesses on the colour of Spirit (the light one)?

[Madcat]

lovezebs errrr uummm.....some shots look white the bottom looks yellow with purple chest tho...

That's the problem with this young lady, every time a different light hits her, her back seems to take on a different hue. In some lights, she does look white, then under a different light, yellow, another light, a light green. It's frustrating.

Not at all sure about the chest either...... or her head.....

Ah well, I guess we'll know soon enough, once she molts.

[Madcat]

lovezebs oh the frustration I know!!! On the last pic right in the middle of the chest I thought I could see lilac poking thru.

Madcat

Yes, I see it too... in that picture. However.....lol . See what I mean?
Only time will tell, sigh....
