baby update

[CindyM]

I didn't want to bore all of you with a lot of day to day talk of my babies. It's been a few days now so here is what has been happening. Cumulus laid another egg. That makes 15 eggs from the 2 pairs. So far Cumulus and Nimbus have 5 babies(all doing good last time I looked) 2 will be lutino as Nimbus is split to lutino. That was a suprise. Thunder and Lightning have 1 baby and it is lutino. I just wish more of their eggs would hatch soon it's been 3 days now sence the first baby hatched. I will post some pictures on this post as soon as my husband can stay awake after he gets home from work:). He needs to help me by holding the nesting box lids. Also he is the only 1 that can touch Thunder when there are babies. Thunder loves my husband. So unless I want to get bit I need his help. So keep an eye out for pics

I have a sad update. Thunder and Lightning's 3rd baby didn't make it.:cry: It eather didn't develope all the way or they broke the egg. There was still yoke in it. The baby would of been a lutino. Im starting to wonder if all of them are going to be lutino this time.

[xxxSpikexxx]

Sorry to hear about the 3rd bub :(

[CindyM]

Thunder and Lightning have a new baby today. It will be a gray. It is doing good. So that is happy news in light of the sad passing of the baby.

[CindyM]

We have another lutino from Thunder and Lightning! I can't belive how many we are getting this time around. All babies are doing good and getting big. I will take more pics soon.

[Bea]

Sorry to hear about the 3rd baby. :( That's so sad! But congrats on the two new bubs! That's a lot of lutinos from them. :p

[CindyM]

Well Nimbus and Cumulus have 6 babies now. I had put this egg in with Thunder and Lightning to even things out on the work. It will be a gray but thats ok. We have 5 lutinos from the 2 pairs now and 4 more eggs to go. Thats 10 babies that have made it so far! Wish me luck when they all are out of the boxes.

[Bea]

Your house will be very busy when they're all coming out for their first flights!! :lol:

[Kfontan]

Nice pics. They are all so beautiful.

[CindyM]

Well all of Thunder and lightning's babies are here. They have 3 lutino and 2 grays. Now it's wait and see if Nimbus and cumulus's babies all hatch. 3 more eggs to go.
