M&L Aviaries

Every year I enjoy trying to guess the sex of the babies and then finding out if I am right or wrong when I get the DNA results.  This year  I thought that #1 and #3 were females and #2 a male.  I was correct.  


They have all pretty much mastered their flying, only a few crashes here and there when they over shoot their target.  #1 seems to be a typical #1, confidant, calm observer who also enjoys interacting with people and playing with her toys.  Because she is so attentive we are working on getting her to fly to us on command. #2 is a typical male, very playful hands on kind of bird, gives everything  100% but he also likes to sit there and get his scratches, #3 is a combination of the other two, playful and interactive with us but also loves her toys. Between flying and playing they all are losing interest in their afternoon hand feeding. However they all are eating pellets, veggies, birdie breads and pastas.

I have been adding photos to the photo section and will add more today of some very wet birds enjoying their showers.
