Growing up fast

Well its been a couple of weeks since i last reported on the little finches and i have to say that everything seems to be going really well they are the same size as the parents and are now able to eat from the feeder so the noise level is slightly lower, which i am sure the neighbours are very pleased about.

The egg in the Bengalese nest has not hatched so i think its infertile so if nothing has happened at the end of this week i think i will remove the nest so that we don't have anymore babies.

We also have two new additions to the family totally unplanned we went to see the animals in a well know pet store and saw two Chinese hamsters that we all fell in love with and so they just had to come home with us, we have named them salt and pepper but they are very nervous and wont climb the tubes to go to bed they sleep in the tubes, hoping that they will settle in in a couple of days.

On other news should be able to get onto the allotment for the first time on the 1st Aug, its a daunting task clearing but if we all get together hopefully its should be fun working together. I will take photos and post them as we go along, nothing will be ready until next year for planting so its going to be a hard winter hope the kids are up for spending time in the great outdoors.

Well thank you for looking take care

  1. That all sounds like it's going in the right direction! I hope Salt & Pepper settle soon.
