Day 21
The babie budgies continue their progress. Sherbet (One) is more alert now
and looks up at us when we open the nest box. It's strange, but Two is the
more active when it is held in our hands. Sherbet is starting to make more
mature noises (which seem to bother Meringue). Kiwi and Meringue are spending
more and more time doing their "adult" things, including, lots of sex. We
are a bit concerned about the chance of more eggs. As soon as the current
chicks are out the nest box for good we are going to take the box away.
Hopefully, this will make Kiwi less receptive.
