Hello everyone! So here is the latest picture of Alice. She wouldnt sit still (she just got done eating...lol) her legs are looking good. I set her on the couch for a second and she was flapping her wings and making moves. :D From the picture you can tell she has more feathers on her head and wings!!! :D:D:D

she also knows that the little red bowl means food, and if the syringe is not in reach she goes after it. She also was using her beak to pull herself up closer to my chest im pretty sure i might have got a little snuggle action the other afternoon!!! :orange:

p.s.
If you look to the right you can see the dog nose, thats why she is all fluffy...my dog cares more about her formula then her...lol...he waits for samples!

Alice is so cute and cuddly...... how precious :D
Her feathers are definitely growing, (looks like it's jelled) LoL
She does look a bit scruffy, but with your love, and care it will soon change.
How much does Alice weigh? She look so tiny. :orange:

Oh my I bet Alice brings out the mothering instinct in the family. She is so tiny. Do have a scale? I purchased one from a man that only sells scales and for many years now. Birdscales.com . Wish I could give her a head scratch.

What a cutie!! She is such a dainty little girl.

SB is right, it's a good idea to keep a scale around. You always want to make sure she's putting on enough weight, so that you can ensure her the best start to adulthood.

I dont know what she weighs....I do have a little scale. She looks as though she has put weight on since i got her. (when seen in real life). How much should she weigh at this stage? 4-5 weeks i think....
See her little legs in the picture? she looks like a little snow border.lol.. She little but my dog is a big dog so maybe she lots a little smaller next to his nose...

That vet you got Alice from should have a baseline wt. I should be a scale that weights in grams. Have fun with her.
