New girl

Postby Claudia on Wed Jun 29, 2011 7:59 pm

After a lot of debating (with myself lol :mrgreen: ) I decided I needed to add at least one more female to my flock as my boys are bickering a lot and are mating with their two sisters.....
I am selling one of my whiteface pied boys, he is gorgeous but I want to stop the mating with siblings business and also the plucking, change of scenery might do him some good (he is going to live with a lady that has bought quite a few of my other birds so I know he will be well loved and going into an aviary with lots of birdie friends :wink: )
I found this girl today, a cinnamon pearl, very pretty with the brightest orange cheek patches I have ever seen :)
Her crest is really small so I dare say she has been in a few fights or is still really young (got her off local stockfeed place, they look after their birds though and have looked for so long and can never find a good looking bird nearby :roll: ) but I am confident the crest will grow back into a nice lush one like my other two pearls have :wink:
This is her, yet to be named, she is in quarantine in the patio aviary (and calling out non stop to my other birds shame :( Good thing the neighbours are away at the moment because she is loud :shock: )

We've called her "Blush".......those bright orange cheek patches just called for that name :wink:

Blush is a cute name. :D
I might have named her "peach" since she is as cute as a peach! :D

Blush is adorable!

I suspect her crest is stunted from breeding small crested birds together. It is really full though!!
