Famous Parrotlet Models?

Look at these great photos of Ramona from Greece's's next Top Model!
I found them through my parrotlet Facebook friend in Greece. Parrotlets Greece Forpus

Look how cute they are "posing" with Ramona

I really did get an "Easter Chick"!

Baby # 5 hatched this morning.  I didn't think he was going to hatch at all.  What a nice surprise.  Now you can see the difference in size from baby #1 who hatched on April 15th to baby #5 who hatched on April 24th.  They grow so quickly!

Baby # 1 - 9 days old!

This is baby # 1.  He is now 9 days old.  He is already showing tiny dark pins forming on his tiny wings.  It is hard to see in the photos.  His eyes have also opened a tiny bit, but the flash caused him to close them.  So Cute!

Easter Chicks!

Well, there are 4 healthy chicks.  I am not sure if egg # 5 will hatch.  The babies that have hatched have grown quite a bit since I took the photos 2 days ago!  This is an excellent sign.
Here are the 3 Easter Chicks before #4 hatched.

This is Ella guarding her babies!  She doesn't like to be bothered!

Baby # 4 Hatching!

He is a photo of chick #4 hatching.  He came out of the egg about 8 hours after this photo was taken.

Another Baby Hatches...Then there were 4

I am happy to report that another wee one hatched!  I am delighted!  They look so healthy!  Ella let me take some photos. I will post them soon.

Oh Joy! New Babies!

I am so afraid to post this!  Mochi & Ella are proud parents of 3 chicks with 2 more hatching! I am so excited!  I have been trying to leave them alone (Ella was hand fed as a baby, but she does not like to be bothered by me and my egg candler)

Mochi & Ella - Before the eggs!
Mochi finally got it right - He used to mate with his toys!

Mochi is a proud papa for sure!  Ella is a Turquoise Pied possibly split yellow & Mochi is a Dilute Blue (aka Amercian White).  If this is true they could produce Dilute Blue Turquoise chicks (aka White Turquoise). Both birds are nice and big.  The babies look so healthy and fat!  She won't let me take pictures yet!  I am hoping for some turquoise babies, and because Ella is a pied there is a chance of Pieds as well!  Happy day!

She only has 2 tiny white spots on her wings
and a few white feathers on her body, and clear nails.
