Patience, patience!
Elizabeth - What a beautiful little one you have! I can image having a "big brother" in the house can be a slight challenge. Though I'm happy he takes the role of big brother serious, my 4 older sisters were quiet annoyed with me from the day I was born.
KellyHM - Congrats! Keep us posted once Tolbunt eggs are ready for purchase!
Texasgal - Lovin' the trees....
San - See this hatching experience as a learning curve, patience is key to everything.
Yesterday was a really saddening day. Because of our moving many items are needed to be sold or given-away, one such item was my Black-faced Yellow mutation Lovebird hen and my dear Parakeet cock. Penelope (the lovebird) has been with us form the age of 6 months. Bought from a inhumane pet-shop which paid no attention to hygiene, she was classified as a rescue. After being nursed back to health and being in quarantine for a period of time, she was allowed to join the flock. Her visit was quickly delayed, something was killing off my other mutations of Lovebirds, unfortunately I lost my whole collection. Penelope was the only one left, she and her mate (which was also a rescue) Milo were placed in a newly refurbished Lovebird cage (6ft x 5ft). Three years passed, and behold a egg was found in their nest! Another was laid shortly after, and another...the grand total of 6 eggs! Day number 15, caused me to worry, warm temperatures were to hit our area, I discussed this matter with my DM and DF, both agreed that the heat should affect the birds too much. That day we left to attend a church meeting, Milo died that day of heat-stroke, I found him still sitting on the eggs. Penelope was very saddened......2 years later I had to give her away.....I truly hope she'll find a good home.
