The first 2 pics are JuJu and the second is my little ham, Cosmo. He calls himself Squirrely Baby and every morning he says "Good Morning Stupid Bird" to me to let me know he's awake.
hmm idk what's going on there. If the egg is fertilized then you will see like a vein type thing inside, if it's not then it will just be empty. Are you sure Cosmo is a boy? lol sometimes they just flirt with each other just because. Cosmo sounds like so much fun! I want to keep a baby boy for myself to teach him to talk. The ones I have now just make animal noises and one says pretty bird in spanish and my name but that's about it because they weren't mine to train. I just bred them and gave them away but they all ended up back in my hands. Here is a link to a good site about breeding them, etc.
