Summer progress

white fronted blue splendid male
A sad day - I lost one of my white fronted blue splendid parakeet.  He was only 1 year old and just got all his adult feathers.  He was also split to lutino, and I had high hopes to breed him in the next season.  It's always sad to lose such a sweet beautiful bird.

On a brighter note, my new normal mature male splendid was just what my lutino hen needed.  They already have 2 eggs in the nest.

Scarlet and Red has another only child.  This will be their last clutch this round.
Coral and Blush's 4 babies are weaned - I'm keeping a close eye just to make sure everyone is fully weaned and eating well.
