An unusual simultaneous hatching!!!

Just amazing! I never knew they hatched naked!! Thank you very much for posting these pictures and making my first WOW of the day.

They are amazing!
So cool they hatched together!

It is funny how some are off and running when they hatch and some aren't.

I raise a variety of small birds and have hand fed many. It's a labor of love, that's for sure! But the rewards are endless!!!

Beautiful birds you have there!
Thanks for sharing this!

The macaw looks so half-baked compared to the goose.

Remind me of my baby rabbits when born-something so ugly it's
cute then turns into such a beauty!

True.

And the guinea pig is an example of born ready to go. They "cook" for 3 months and have fur, teeth and eyes open when born.

I would looooove to breed gteys! But I don't wanna lose my pet girl, by getting her a mate. I heard once they breed they don't stay friendly.

Love the pics....we have a 3 yr old harlequin macaw ( a mix of the greenwing and blue and gold) he talks non stop!

Wow! And we think looking after baby chicks is time-consuming. It's amazing the difference between the precocial and the altricial at hatch. They really are rather scary looking. And, ahem, extremely ugly. (Sorry...) But they really make up for it once they're grown. I absolutely LOVE the green winged one. Such gorgeous colours.

Since you have macaws I thought you'd enjoy some of the pics of the scarlets and great greens I cared for in Costa Rica.

I don't know, my chicks(quail) are little stinkers and keep me busy! Boy they can make a mess.

But when hand raising baby birds, they do get formula everywhere and need constant cleaning. LOL!

Wow! Really neat. Awesome to seem as they mature. Thanks for sharing.
