They have come a long way since I took them in. They're doing really good as they're trying to lose a bit of baby weight for flight. I started their stand training tonight. :)

It wasn't a easy task to begin with when their health was compromised in the first place when I took them in. It would still be another few weeks before their tail feathers is fully grown. So I hope they don't act all crazy flying everywhere and running into trouble and breaking off their tail feathers, their nails are so sharp right now I have cuts all over my arm and leg as they crawl all over me and I have very sensitive skin....But YES I am very proud of these babies as they pulled through, it would be sad to see the whiteface pied baby go as he was sooooo tiny and malnourished when I took him in. And we're keeping the Whiteface Lutino as he's gonna be a part of our flock now. I just really like white and yellow birds....lol....
