Budgie Eggs!

They have bad eye eight and cant see well
In general the ino mutation does not affect eyesight like albinism does in other birds (I freaked out with first one for that reason) I have 3 currently not counting the babies and they fly and maneuver same or better than regular budgies

Yes but I think PoultryBonkers means that they have a greater chance of having eye problems which is true. Inos aren't really known for their great health status

I sang Cardigan by Taylor Swift to them (yes I'm split between he and she now too) and Lemon literally fell asleep! What a cutie!
Also, here is the first baby from our clutch this time, all grown up and tamed!

As @PippinTheChicken suggested, her name is Pippin!
 
How do you keep them tamed? Once they fledge here….it’s over :th
Play with them, pet them and teach them to perch on your index finger while they are little! And then when they can fly, they will let you do all those things perfectly!
Though I should say that in an Aviary Setting (the type you have) it is VERY hard to tame the younglings after they fledge as they'll see that other birds aren't tamed. If the other birds don't go to you, they won't too. So I suggest keeping the siblings in a cage until they are like 5 months old (tame them the way written above) THEN release them into the Aviary and NOW you can reverse the pattern mentioned above tp favour you. Yes, the other birds will get tamed easily seeing the babies come to you and all. Then, the whole flock tamed! It's so fun
