The babies are growing so quickly - Bub #2 is already wanting to be picked up .. lol .. it's so cute .. they are walking all over the nest box and boy oh boy do they love their food !
We are hand feeding them now because Bub #4 is so tiny he wasn't getting enough from mum dad so over the past few days - I've been taking them from the nest during the day and hand feeding all 4 ..
Bub #4 is doing really well now - still very tiny - but god can the little bugger eat .. he stands up really tall and beg's like there's no tomorrow ..
Bub's 1,2 and 3 are fed every 4 hours - Bub #4 get's fed every 2-3 hours if required .. This morning they were fed 7am so next feed should 11am - maybe a bit earlier for Bub #4 ..
I have a bird cage that has a big door on it - so the babies are in that, inside a nest box lined with paper towel which get's changed every couple of hours if needed .. I leave them on the back verandah during the day ..
last night was their 1st night out of the nest box away from mum and dad so we put them in the computer room - on our filing cabinet .. I got up at 11.30pm and fed them ..
I'll have some hand feeding video's up soon ....
