Me: *suddenly realises that there's no sign of Birbie anywhere* Me: "Birbie! Where you?!" Birbie: *faraway-sounding meep* Me: "WHERE?!" Birbie: Birbie: *faraway-sounding meep* Me: *searches frantically* Birbie: *faraway-sounding meep* 10 seconds later, guess who popped up from behind the sofa 🤦‍♀️ #greencheekconure #greencheekedconure #greencheekconuresofig #greencheekconures #greencheeksofinstagram #greencheek #pineapplegreencheek #greencheeks #greencheekconuresofinstagram #pineapplegreencheekconure #handfedbirds #handfedbabyparrots #handfedgreencheekconure #handfedgreencheekconure #handfedparrots #aviculture #birbs #birbstagram #birds #karachi #pakistan https://www.instagram.com/p/B1508zLAkYo/?igshid=1esxopo0tdmb1

Yup, she is almost definitely a pineapple green cheek conure! 💛🧡❤️💚 Might be a 'high red' pineapple; will know that part once she gets all her feathers. ❤️ #greencheekconure #greencheekedconure #greencheekconuresofig #greencheekconures #greencheeksofinstagram #pineapplegreencheekconure #pineapplegreencheek #aviculture #karachi #pakistan https://www.instagram.com/p/B1qd-f2nbYZ/?igshid=lvsn305lq5n9

All three babies have been successfully banded: Girls on the left leg, boy on the right. Green cheek conures are sexually monomorphic (no visible differences between the sexes), but this set is special: While both parents are visually regular GCC (no visible mutations), the father is 'split' to something (we'll know what exactly once all three babies get their feathers; rest explained earlier up-thread. 🙂) So it is fairly safe to assume that the baby with the black beak and feet is a boy (he's either 'split' like his father, or 'normal'), and the babies with the pink beaks and feet are girls. Super-excited about this clutch, because I've never had surprises like these before: The breeder (who bought the parent birds from someone else) and I were both expecting regular GCC babies (no visible mutations), because neither parent displayed any visible mutation either; and this is the pair's first clutch ❤️ #greencheekconure #greencheekconuresofig #greencheekconures #greencheek #greencheeksofinstagram #greencheekedconure #greencheek #parrots #parrotsofinstagram #parrotsofig #parrotsoftheworld #bird #birbs #birdsofinstagram #birbsofinstagram #birbstagram #aviculture #karachi #pakistan https://www.instagram.com/p/B1JB2SjA9mC/?igshid=1stuthvza2kkw

The oldest green cheek conure baby is starting to unsheath some pin feathers; and he seems to have some interesting red patches at the same spots on both wings. I can't WAIT to see these babies' colours, GCC genetics are so fascinating! The parents are both regular GCC, no visual / visible mutations. #greencheekconure #greencheekconuresofig #greencheekconures #greencheek #greencheeksofinstagram #greencheekedconure #greencheek #parrots #parrotsofinstagram #parrotsofig #parrotsoftheworld #bird #birbs #birdsofinstagram #birbsofinstagram #birbstagram #aviculture #karachi #pakistan https://www.instagram.com/p/B1CkBC9ADb7/?igshid=munv7dwj26xy

Both parents are regular green cheek conures (no mutations.) So why do two of the babies have pink beaks and feet? 🤔 #greencheekconure #greencheekconuresofig #greencheekconures #greencheek #greencheeksofinstagram #greencheekedconure #greencheek #parrots #parrotsofinstagram #parrotsofig #parrotsoftheworld #bird #birbs #birdsofinstagram #birbsofinstagram #birbstagram #aviculture #karachi #pakistan https://www.instagram.com/p/B0y1j1inCn5/?igshid=64r7shn4p768

Demon birdling is very pleased with herself after - - Wasting 1 kg of food by kicking it out of the dispensers and at Lemon; - Pushing her water dispensers until they dislodged and fell; and - Dislodging all the salt and mineral blocks in her crate. For lulz. All in one day.
