  1. Gail,

    Have you ever tried letting the parents feed the babies but otheriwse handling them a lot so they become tame? Will that work? Or do you have to pull them from the parents at some point and hand feed to produce tame babies (even if the parents are tame)?

  2. Gail,
    This is a nice video. Especially the way it shows the male helping to feed the babies. Male Bourke's like to be involved in the rearing too. The freeze mode that Fuchsia was in seems so common in Bourke's. I've never known a bird to have more freeze episodes than the Bourke's parakeets.
    I wish all the babies happy growing!
