Now THIS man is truly striking.
I think I just laid an egg!

Pardon me, I'll just roll that egg outta everyone's way.
She is a little flirty girl dancing away for him!

Grab the egg quick and give it to the Societies to hatch. That's one chick that I gotta see!!! Can we name it Bubba, please, pretty please .....
Yes, Baby White Breast, has become a flirt, tsk tsk tsk. And yet she wouldn't give poor Pim a second look, when I first got him.

Thanks Bill,
...and this was a bird left to languish in the back room of the Pet Shop, because he was stuck in molt.

Hahah I will call
![On the phone :)]](./images/smilies/100.gif)
Bubba and he will get the tractor and pack up that egg for ya!
Y'all say those eggs last about a week? He said he'd be there in 2 days.
That 4x4 can scale mountains doncha know ;)
Bubba blushed when you said you'd give him a namesake btw, He even canceled his hunting trip......now thats serious business!
I warned him it would probably have a little legs and a wobblehead.

Call off Bubba! This is your egg girl, you laid it. Put it under your Socies, and send me picts when it hatches. I wonder if it will look like you, or like.....my Gouldian Pim? Or Bill?
I'm getting all confused here, my eyes are going crossed

It will look like a hired actor in a Gouldian suit with a bobblehead. You know these society boys dont start feeding until theres noise.
They might just fall in that crater mouth I hatch......

Okay I just cracked myself up with that image.

I love when the male does the little head nod, like he's bowing. It's so sweet! That's a gorgeous pair!

Thanks.
The little Gouldian dance is both funny and adorable. They both do this little bowing, and head trembling thingy. Then the girl flutters her tail, and the boy starts bouncing up and down, up and down. Always makes me laugh

Pim and Baby White Breast, are probably ready to go to nest now, but I simply don't have the room to set them up right at the moment.
My poor kids, they have to take a number, and wait their turn.
