Lyric Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Hello everyone. It's great to have a nursery room and I thought I'd contribute by sharing a few pictures of Lyric when he was a baby. Here he is the first day I took him from the nestbox for handfeeding. This is 20 days old. I put the other eggs from the nest that didn't hatch next to him for this picture for a bit of reference. You can see how much he had grown in just 20 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyric Posted April 14, 2008 Author Share Posted April 14, 2008 Here he is a little later, I'd have to go back to my notes to tell you how old he is in this photo. It's interesting to note and those of you that haven't bred them might not know this, but timnehs have dark black beaks just like a Congo when they start out. It's funny to watch the beak change colors as they mature. This is just after a feeding so he's a bit messy! <br><br>Post edited by: Lyric, at: 2008/04/14 18:07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyric Posted April 14, 2008 Author Share Posted April 14, 2008 Here is Lyric right before he fledged. If you look closely you can see his beak is just starting to lighten up. What a little angel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
