Busy Mums





 I've been helping too, making some boiled chook eggs mashed up.  The babies like it for thier breakfastIt is fascinating to watch these little ones grow and be cared for.

 This little one is from my second avairy.  It has been in a nest with 3 other babies.and it was getting a bit crowded. I found it sitting on top of the nest just now, outside the nest, but not big enough to fly down. I carefully put it into a lower nest, as it was a LONG way to fall where it was.  Mum is still looking after it there, and it wont be long until it can fly.

You are amazing. I would have never known that they eat boiled chook eggs.

I love how you make a little mash for them. Your birds are simply adorable... those little mouths open for food. Yes, they're keeping everyone busy aren't they.
Delightful post :D)
