New Flight Pattern so to speak.

Hi Everyone,

I know its been a while but my aviary has recently taken a new direction.  Yes I still breed the finches, but within the past year I have started with more of the smaller hookbills.  I am breeding American Parakeets, Scarlet Chested Parakeets, Bourke Parakeets, and Lovebirds.
My husband Paul is hand feeding all the babies and they are turning out so sweet.  They love to be handled and will literally fly to you when you call them.  He gives them kisses and talks to them as he is feeding them.  He even teaches them to step up into his hand when they don't even have all their feathers yet.


We had one lady come over to pick up her baby lovebird and she said I am going to take the one that comes to me. Well they showed her they all flew to her when she called them.  She had a hard time deciding on which little sweetie she wanted.
All of these went to great homes, we currently have 10 more baby lovebirds, 3 bourkes, 1 scarlet chested and 1 parakeet being hand fed right now.  All are very sweet and soon will be ready for new homes.
