I owe pictures, I know! All 5 are doing terrific, Anna. I need to take some new pictures, but not until we do a good cage cleaning!All 5 of them have their eyes open now and Roger and Milly are allowing me to handfeed the one baby with the splayed leg. I feed him once or twice/ day and as soon as I put him back in the nest, they are all over him, offering even more food!
This morning, one baby was out of the nest, so I don't think it will be long before they are climbing everywhere!
Pictures tonight, I promise.

I have been trying to handfeed, but the little fellow didn't eat much and even with Roger and Milly feeding him, he couldn't lift his head to help them at all. He was underdeveloped and both legs were splayed, not just one. We didn't see that until today. Thank goodness for Dr. Robinson, who is not a bird vet, but was willing to give him the small injection to relieve his suffering. Dr. Fernandez, who I have used for my birds, didn't have any afternoon appointments and I knew what needed to happen without seeing him, anyway.
