Default update

Just thought I'd give an update on our cockatiels...
Our first baby, Georgie is almost 12 months old now, and still talks a lot! lol
We had one more baby born 2 months ago, we are hand-raising 'it' and we hope it's another male that will talk. This one we called Charlie, and is easy to handle, and is more advanced than Georgie for it's age (that is probably because Georgie turned out to be partially blind!)
We decided we didn't want to have any more babies, so my mum gave Reggie, the father, to a friend. But next thing we knew, the female, Cheryl, was sitting on more eggs, less than a month after the birth of Charlie (who is now inside with us)!
So, I thought...one more baby will be OK...but it turned out there are 3 babies in the nest...and the poor mother is having to feed 3 hungry ones by herself! lol
One of the babies is looking like it will be multi-colored like the father, so I might keep that one!
