Well I made my title clear enough ...hope you enjoy these pics of my little Hooded baby .

Anyhoo heres my remaining Hooded bub . Pulled him/her out at about 12 days after its sibling was found cold and crop empty .
Its been an absolute joy rearing this baby , it feeds well and whistles baby noises when being fed .
Def think the parents did well to get as far as they did , they are both very young birds .

They can be included in a mixed collection if the aviary is big enough. The usual caveats apply as to the need to watch them closely for signs of excessive aggression.
