Just a thought ... :idea: ... if the photo comp kicks off how about you enter one of the pics with the birds feeding out of your hand. :idea:

I remember my birds did that once...

Then I found out I hadn't been giving them enough food for all day (though I gave it every day)
Solution, I increased food amounts and they stopped.

I'm sure this isn't your case, I'm sure you you feed them properly by how healthy they look ;)

very cute :D

Cute little beggars aren't they. I still have Zebs after all these years, because they are such sweeties. Yes they can over run an avairy, but you learn to remove nests. And they come in so many colours and patterns that breeding them can remain a challenge.
