Pucky and Sweeties nest 2003

November 2003

Pucky and Sweetie also started mating again. First egg was laid on November 18, second on November 20, third on November 22, fourth on November 24, fifth on November 27 and sixt on November 29. I don't know if there are more eggs to come. We'll see, said the blind.

Sweetie is now constantly breeding and I expect the first egg to hatch at about December the 13.

Here some photo's from the beginning till now..

Update December 1, 2003

Sweetie still has 6 eggs. It still is possible that she will lay a seventh egg. We'll see. I think 6 is more than enough, although I don't know yet how many eggs are fertilized. I am sure that three are.

The three eggs on the right are "darker".. a bit blue.. these are fertilized for sure

This photo isn't clear, but it is cute.. you can see the eggs under her brest

Quite funny, huh? I can just lift her from the eggs.. and take a look. No biting etc. What a difference with Charlie (the pitbull). LOL

Nothing special to write... only that Sweetie keeps it with 6 eggs. Pffff.... Lucky me. LOL. The more eggs, the more babies.. and I always want to find new lovebird owners myself, so that I am sure to whom I will give a baby.. and that can be a bit difficult. I don't like to bring my babies to a pet shop, but I can't keep them.. I already have 9 birds.. he he!
Keep you all posted on this page. Sweetie is breeding and I expect the first baby in the third week of this month.
