Reason for relocation of the parent bird are due to the fact that 2 juvenile ringneck parakeets were lost. Not sure if it the carelessness of individuals on not closing the cage door or someone stole it. So to prevent the same problem, the birds are relocated nearer to the house.
Hope that this chick will grow till weaned coz I'm still learning on hand feeding the chick. And hope my inexperience and busyness will not cause the young bird to lose its life. Just trying my best to look after it and hope it will survive till weaned. If anyone have recommendation on how to take proper of the young birds then I'll be pleased to seek your advice on the matter.
So i will reconsider on putting the birds up for sale as too much patience and time are spent on the bird. So perhaps if it survive it will become one of my favourite. Sorry if i have disappointed those who wish to purchase the bird. And i will considering selling the ringneck again after i manage to recover back my 2 lost birds to make sure i have enough stock for future breeding.

In reply to oitss question on how's the ring neck hatching. Unfortunately only one out of the two hatchling that i posted on the 20/1/2011 survive so far. Due to relocation of the birds closer to my house and due to many visitors visiting to my place. One of the chick did not survive and one of the chick was rejected. So i need to hand feed the chick and so far this is the progress.
The cockatiels chicks weaned which is a follow up of what i have posted on 26th july 2011. Glad that he made it this far.Happy to see an addition of 1 bird to my teils collection.
The IRN chick weaned which is a follow up of what i have posted on 26th july 2011.The same bird but glad it survived by 3 of the sibling did not. So i suppose its time to give the parents a break and nurse them back to health before the next breeding.
Haven't been updating the blog lately due to trying another source of communication i.e. with the use of facebook. Seems that many are active with facebook compare to that of a blog. This is the one cockateil baby that i mange to take picture on the 21/7/2011. Seems like it will turn out to be the albino. But still not sure if it will make it to weaned.
Disappointing from the clutch of 4 ringneck babies. Many did not make it and only one manage to made it this far on the 21/7/2011.
The third pair of the luvbirds have lay quite a few eggs and hope they will manage to hatch coz i haven't got any successful hatch from this pair so far.
Initially i thought that only 3 out of the lovebird babies from the 4 babies of the green parent pair luvbird have made it till this far and has always assumed one of it is dead.But to my surprise today i saw one more chick coming out from the nest and has weaned and flew out from the nest. That's the chick that weaned today as shown in the picture. Glad to find that all has survived.
Out of the 2 lovebird babies that i have posted it on 16/5/2011 only one of them managed to survived till almost weaned. The 1 lovebird baby will weaned very soon in a few days time.Glad to see that as this pair of parents are still quite new in rearing the babies. Glad to see that at least they managed to nurse one of the babies till almost weaned.
Very lucky to have the another clutch of eggs hatching with only 2 babies.
Another clutch have 4 babies and i'm not sure how far can the parent look after the chicks. Hope they will grow up well till weaned. Not intending on selling any of the babies so kindly not make any query on it. Thanks
