Mango (Destiny) comes to visit!

Hello,
I haven't posted for a while now, so here's a quick little update.
Destiny, Faith and Hope all went to lovely homes, Destiny to one and Faith and Hope to another. We had another round of babies as I said in the previous post from Lemon and Lime and here's a picture of one before he/she went to their new home:

Then earlier this year in January we had everyone laying eggs! In total we received 18, new babies! These all were naturally raised by their parents and are still in the aviary.
At the moment we have two indoors as their parents were letting visitors into the nest box and the poor babies we being trampled on. We haven't raised them hand-tame, just so they are grown-up and eating independently to go in the aviary, this will take place soon when we finally get some sun!




So now to the point of this blog post, the lovely family who took Destiny home from the first clutch we raised have bought her over for a visit whilst they go on holiday for 3 days. She has been renamed Mango and has now got her beautiful red breast and all her colours have come through. Of course we are more than happy to have this cheeky girl back :).
