Hi everyone, I am very proud to announce the arrival of my first princess parrot baby woooohooooo ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D She is on six eggs so if i'm super lucky there are some more to hatch, if not 1 is fantastic. Photos will follow when mum is more comfortable with me peering in. As they are first time parents I am trying not to hassle them too much. Btw mum princess is the one in my avatar. Updates shortly  |

how lucky are you Jane. My canaries were first time parents...........and I just couldn't help myself but sneak a peak everytime she was off the nest. I have noticed this time she is not budging...........least not while I am around. LOL ;D

congats on the baby, hope you have more by now. My daughter has a green pair & another pair with a blue male & split to blue hen. The greens had 4 babies the blues had 5 but lost 2. I am now rearing 7 in my lounge room.They are about a week off starting to feed themselves.They sure are noisey little blighters.
Both lots of parents are back on eggs again now but don't know if we'll get a second clutch..

Thanks everyone,
Well only one hatched the rest were clear but it's their first time so I'll forgive them and they are being exceptional parents, bub is very very well fed and has grown huge, I'll put up a pic soon.

Here's a mobile phone snap I got while mum princess had gone to check out the fresh breakfast I got them. She spends alot of time in with bub so I didn't want to risk going for the camera and finding her back in the nest when I returned.  |

He (she?) is getting feathers now. Mum has stopped spending time in the box but boy are they going through the fresh food they are eating a fresh corn cob a day as well as greens, lucky there was only 1 bub imagine how much 3 or 4 would have eaten  |
