Baby Parrot Pictures!
My first clutch of baby Senegals:



______________

This is Spanky, Darla's clutchmate. He's very young still, just weaned:



______________

Baby African grey parrots at four weeks:



______________

Baby African grey parrots at five weeks:



______________

Baby African grey parrots between seven and eight weeks old: "Are we birds yet?"



______________

Bowl O' Senegals:



______________

Tub O' Greys:



These guys have just fledged, but probably didn't wean until four-to-six weeks later. There's a long period of dependency in a lot of parrot species.

4. Those greys remind me of my baby who is now 6 yrs old.
I met her when she was very, very young, at the pet shop. I had originally picked her clutchmate, and noticed after awhile that he was not as intererested in me as his sister. I kept visiting several times a week, and then asked if I could switch, to which they said yes.
You could say my grey picked ME to be her mom.
She speaks directly to my face, she has few fears.
Geez, I love dat birdie!

6. Awww, burdies!
How adorable, be sure to post photos and let us see how they grow. I had a parakeet when I was a little girl, but the closest I ever got to an exotic bird was a friend who had a cockatiel. It was a very cool bird.

9. I have a cockatiel.
I believe she is 2 years old this month. I keep telling her, just think, 2 years ago you were a little egg. ;)

She'll always be my baby. :hug: :D

10. They are adorable.
I've never had pet birds, but I like looking at them through the window. How do they eat as babies? I saw the not weaned part and starting wondering.
