Hi everyone
I thought I would write about my babies...some facts and observations or even ideas Please share your opinion or comments if you have any
Kiwi is 1 month and 3 days old. She came out of the nest last friday and tried to fly on saturday. She is very calm and kind of lazy lol. She tries new food but not really a curious type yet.
Jello is 1 month and 2 days old. Active, flew and came out of the nest on the same day as Kiwi. He is the only one I have ever seen drinking out of the water bowl in the cage, he also played with the water Friendly but cautious.
Noodle is 1 month old and a mystery. She is the one who has seeds in her poop, although she spends almost all day in the cage chewing and munching on something. She is 3 days younger than Kiwi but came out of the nest and flew on the same day, and she is the one who actually climbed up to the entrance of the cage and flew out today. The vet said she should be okay in 2 weeks, it is probably just an imbalance in her tummy but I took Srtiel's advice and give her Brewers Yeast and acidophilus.
Peanut is 29 days old, just left the nest 2 days ago. He was cranky when he was smaller but now he calmed down, he never hisses at me anymore. He is trying out fresh food and trying his wings however he has not flown yet.
Mango is 27 days old, he has not left the nest yet but sits in the entrance He is the most suspicious, picks at my hand even if I handle him almost daily. He is very curious as well, when he is out with me he constantly looks around and moves
Their absolute favorite is the crushed pellets, but they like the whole grain bread, corn, pea, carrot and leafy veggies like romaine lettuce. They chew on the perches, play with the newspaper in the cage and preen each other They also started vocalizing and working on their flock call at least I think. Parents are still feeding them 4-5 times a day and they all go back to the nest in the evening
