Here is a picture of one of the baby alexandrines i took yesterday. All three are doing really well so far. When they first hatched mum was really agro and wouldn't even let us poke our noses in the nest box but she has settled right down now and is quite happy for us to pull them out for a look. please excuse the rough "panelbeaters" hands holding it... ;D  |

Haha, cool Jen! Looking really good! Will you let the parents raise them to fledging or are you going to handraise them?

they are about 5 weeks old now (I think). Rob is going to raise one and Holly might buy one so that just leaves one to sell. We will probably leave it with the parents if nobody wants it tamed as a pet. There are not many Alexs around down here so don't expect it will be hard to sell at all. And the parents are lovely big birds, bigger than most of the ones we have seen lately.
