Fat and pink, except the lorikeets which are fat and grey fluffyness. LOL. Is it alot of work with the feeding? I usually pull them a little older because I cannot do that many feeds during the day.

The pins look funny but cute on the ringies. The lorikeets are very sweet. How many feeds a day are they getting?

Wow you really do have your hands full. I am getting a cockateil for my daughter soon and one for a friend, they are about 2 weeks old but I was going to wait one more week in the hope I won't have to feed them too often. Do you think 3 weeks old will be an OK age to get them? It has been about 10 years since I handraised a weero!

Three weeks is normally the perfect age to wait to hand raise weeros, at that age you don't have to do night feeds and its only 3-4 times a day.
