The flash won't hurt them. Most of my pictures are with the flash.

I'd like to see pictures of the parents...or did you post some and I forgot?

I'll post a few of mine with flash...just because. big_smile The first is all 7 (they are all the same color and mutations unfortunately) and the last 2 pictures are the 2 I am probably keeping.

No food in the nest box. They'll leave the box when they're ready and mom & dad will teach them what to eat.

It's not too late to learn to to love and forget how to hate.
