We're birdsitting this week for Annie while she takes it easy on the Florida beaches with her family!

This is Angel's 2nd clutch, hatched last week:

The little balls of things you can see through their skin are their crops, stuffed full of food!

Are they quite prolific breeders then?

Maybe, she is hoping a good talk will do! LOL :funny: :rotflmao: I can imagine she is excited about having 4 this time. In the ball of fuz and little bodies I thought I was seing 3,then 4. I could see an eye on the third one and what looked like a side view of a body on the 4th. Thanks, for defining the number.

Well, hers and ours are... but it takes 18 mos to get going.

Thing is, it's quite a responsibility to find "GOOD" homes, so that right there is the reason to prevent further procreation! :agree:
