Band 198 has gone on to his new home. We miss him, but he has a home with an experienced bird owner who knows how to care for him.

Green cheeks love water. Check out these babies playing!
| August 11, 2008. Band 198 is flying and buzzing from one head to another in our kitchen. Band 199 is still very babyish and not flying long distances yet. Click here to see Lisa playing with Band 199 in a video. The bird on the right is 199 and the 2 pictures below are of 198. Band 198 was very cuddly in a towel after his bath this morning! |

I will not be taking
deposits on the 2 baby Turquoises until July 26th. Sarah and Judy
have tentatively reserved them, but these reservations are tentative
meaning one or both of these babies may come up as available after
the 26th. I also have one other family that is in line for these 2
(Ted and Shana).
To the right, meet our very first visual Turquoise baby!!!!!! It is now inside with us and is banded #198. |

Two babies have hatched under Curious and Blue and are available.
June 22, 2008 This page has been very quiet and I thought we were done for they year for anymore babies. Our temps have been as high as 110-114 for many days in a row. Lo and behold, if a baby did not just hatch under Blue and Curious. I hope this wee bird can make it. I see my pairs get in their water dishes and climb dripping into the nest box to cool off their babies. Amazing creatures. There are misters in their cages, but the nests are warm. I doubt their will be any babies under Fuzzy and Wuzzy. One egg might make it. The others are gone. I do leave up my boxes for the green cheeks year round. They like sleeping in them, and they usually stop themselves from laying when the heat hits. Typically, they lay 2 clutches per year.

Here are the first four babies from Fuzzy and Wuzzy. Look at the wonderful colors. The face even has red up over the eyes and nose and on the cheeks. WOW!! |

April 16th, 2008Click here to see a video of two Pineapple Green Cheek Conures getting baths after dinner!
April 13, 2008Fuzzy and Wuzzy are producing babies that are super red. You can see the deep red coming in on this baby!!
It looks like Gala and Fuji have 2 Pineapples in their clutch! We brought in their 2 babies and a second one from Fuzzy and Wuzzy! After banding them all, we prepared dna cards to send in for sexing them. |

We are feeding 2 of Gala and Fuji's babies. The oldest is a Yellow sided and the next one is a Normal with very unusual coloring.

Next to come
inside with us will be babies from Fuzzy and Wuzzy. They have
red eyes and pink feet! (left picture). There are 4 babies in
that baby pile!
To the right is our first baby from Curious and Blue. Blue USED to be paired up with Berry and Curious was with George, but after 2 years of no babies, we split them up and re-paired them. Blue is a Turquoise and Curious is a Yellow Sided split to turquoise.

We will not be looking in Fuzzy and Wuzzy's box with hopes that our lack of intrusion may give them the needed security to raise a clutch.Fuji and Gala: I cannot candle these eggs to check for fertility for about 2 weeks. Their clutch is unpredictable as far as which mutations are available until the babies feather out somewhat. I will know if there are Cinnamons or Pineapples by the red eyes when I look in the nest box. It is hard for me to promise someone a baby from this clutch until I know what we have.
Feb. 22, 2008
Fuzzy and Wuzzy laid their very first egg.
Fuji and Gala are on 4 eggs and still laying!
Feb, 20, 2008Fuzzy and Wuzzy are eggnant. They are very red Pineapples and should make stunning babies!
Fuji and Gala are on 3 eggs and laying more daily. They have the potential to make Normals, Cinnamons, Yellow Sideds and Pineapples.
