The Shelly and Kevin Thread

[h2oratt]

What hatchery did you get these crossbeaks from?

 

[h2oratt]

Amazing! I fell so bad for Shelly being ”stuck” in that cup, that’s horrible. But I’m so happy she made it through!

Actually being in that cup probably saved her. I have had flatten chicks that were weak and the others just stepped all over it

My crossbeaks all sound kinda gruff like she does!

Maybe it has something to do with the way their bill is twisted??

Again, sorry for the terrible video quality-

Today was beak trimming day! I trimmed all three beaks. Shelly’s needs trimmed every 3-4 weeks because she’s good at grinding it herself, Kevin’s needs trimmed every 1-3 weeks, usually just the top beak, because she has a hard time with hers, and Booboo’s is all over the place.

Here is an adorable picture I got today-

Thank you! No, Lettie, you may not take my baby.

I'm not a dog sorry and the queen herself has arrived

Happy (early) birthday, Shelly!

Booboo is Kevin’s special treat buddy, so whenever Kevy gets a treat, Booboo does, too.

And you have 120 birds?

 

[Cold-Blood]

Yes..... well, almost, 13 of them are still developing inside their little eggs. But, if all goes well, I should have 120-ish birds in about twenty days.

Ohhh.... how many are chickens?
