I am so excited! I have 3 Red Rump Babies! I've only had 1 bub before and it died within 2 days of hatching. She's such a calm mum. Stayed in the box watching me while I took about 10 pictures and she let me pet her all without screaming or biting me.  |

as of Saturday, we have 5 babies out of 6 hatched with 1 egg still to go - although I checked again today and I think it's no good. Mum & Dad - dad didn't move until I put my hand under him:  hmmm, only see 4 bubs, Mum where's baby 5? (mum gave my finger a nibble when I scratched her cheek)  Here's baby 5!  Here is the eldest bub for comparison:  |

I don't know what happened but there is only 4 bubs now. I have searched the aviary high and low and no bub - ants must have cleaned it's body up already.   |

Wow! They are growing fast! I wonder if they will all be green or different colours?
Our hen is on her second clutch for the season!

They sure do look great now! Took these pictures on 24-11-2007 2 cinnamon - think one's a yellow/cinnamon, I think blue & a green bub. I'm finding Red Rumps colour surprises more entertaining than budgie's at the moment! Mum and bubs:  Close up of 3 of the babies:    |
