M&L Aviaries

And another one hatched out this morning.  Lolita let me clean out the pine shavings in her nest box and put in fresh ones this morning.  In the process I get to hold the babies.  I move them to another part of the nest while I remove any soiled shavings, put in fresh shavings and move the babies back to the spot I took them from.  I do this all without touching the egg.  It rests on top of its pile of shavings.  Odie & Lolita are the exception to this kind of cleaning most breeder pairs would not allow you to do this.  They supervise and when I am done they continue to eat.
