Just love that pic Nat!......How did you get them to stand to attention!LOL Is it a secret or can you spill the beans about how on earth you manage to handraise 60 cockatiels! By the time you finish you would have to start all over again. I know ....your fingers have actually mutated into syringes right...feed 10 at once!!!LOL The most I have ever done is 22 and between feeding them all and cleaning up after them it was a non-stop effort.
