April 24
April 3 The days have passed and Band 211, 212, 213, 214, 216, 217 have all gone home to their new families. Below is Jess trying to put the babies to bed after night time play time. We can't seem to get a good picture of this!
A new clutch of Zumo and Kaidas is inside with us along with Fuzzy and Wuzzy's 2 babies. Remember how I mentioned that Fuzzy and Wuzzy are a pair that I have to be very cautious with? Well, they did chew on their babies. The youngest is going to go home with a neighbor who likes to take in the underdogs and Band 232 is going to live with Donna. Zumo/Kaida have blessed us with 5 babies of which all are reserved. We have brought in the oldest 2 babies to band and hand feed. They are banded 233-237 March 20 I have gotten a few emails back from the new owner of Band 211. Here is one...
March 16
The sexing results are in and babies are just starting to make
arrangements to go home.
March 14 We are still waiting for the sexing results so we can tell everybody who gets which baby! The results should be in soon, though.
February 16, 2009
We had a horse
show on Saturday which meant all day gone from our home. For breeders, this is a
real trick! I have learned that if we have to be gone all day, I cam make the
babies' nighttime my daytime and my nighttime becomes their daytime. What that
means is we feed all night long and let them sleep during the day. My daughters
used to not be old enough to do this, but now they miss sleep, set an alarm and
feed in the middle of the night too! My girls did well at the horse show despite
running on low sleep. My oldest and youngest took home the Reserve Ribbon for
the day.
This is Jessie writing now on the journal, the "nestbox checker"! Lisa just pulled in Gala's oldest two and Beau's oldest two. They are all banded. We think that Gala's oldest is a YSGC (Yellow Sided Green Cheek,) because it has pink feet and does not have red eyes like Cinnamons and Pineapples. The dark feet of the second one tell us that it is a normal. Lisa told Mom that one of the babies in Gala and Fuji's nestbox have red eyes, meaning it is either a Pineapple or a Cinnamon!!! All Beau and Rain's babies are Yellow Sided.
Feb. 6, 2009: Tonight was the night! We pulled in our first 2 babies of 2009. In this nursery journal, I am going to post thumbnail pictures. If you click on them, they will blow up bigger for you to see more detail.
