Green Cheeked Conure - Chicks


The Green Cheeked Conure female has hatched her first egg. Hopefully this is the first of a few but a good result no matter what. The only thing I have done differently this year is I wasn't expecting anything and I put a branch that partially covered the nesting box, including the entrance. This possibly made the box feel more secure.

The Scarlet Chested Female continues to raise her two chicks. They are now getting a lot larger and sit to the side of her uncovered most of the time. Both my other Scarlet female and Bourke female continue to sit on there un-hatched eggs. They have been on them too long and expect they will soon give up on them
