Hi Molossus,
Will post a pic of the pair and babies when I get time. As you know it's time consuming hand rearing.
Loving every minute of it though

Re: 1st time breeder.
Hey Deb, I will be selling them I have already sold 2 to friends of mine. Just gave them another feed and my kids had cuddles with them. They don't like that to much yet. Yeah I would be interested to fine out how they got the blue in them. I was so happy to have blue. Obviously one of the parents m...

Re: 1st time breeder.
Hi Deb Babies are doing great. Pulled them out for hand rearing yesterday. We ended up with 2 blues and 1 grey. Feeding is going ok. They are obviously still quite frightened. They are now 3 1/2 weeks old. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-_xYnrTxMSgs/UG9m3uzqgiI/AAAAAAAAAB0/fBFaYxEp484/s144/image....

Thank you for your reply.

Re: 1st time breeder.
Hi Deb, Babies are doing very well. I checked out the pics of "Luna". Funny that my girl is named Luna. But she is not a normal grey like my male is. She is very light in colour. Almost white but with darker wings. I'll have to get a better photo of her when she is out in the sun. She is v...

Hi Deb My IRN's are outside in an aviary under my patio. I think it's about 3m long and about 1m wide. I also have a hand reared IRN inside. He is my baby. Babies are doing really well. Hoping to be able to post a picture up soon of mum and dad. I'm not sure what colour she is. She is kind of silver...

That sounds great Eshana. You sound like you really know what you are doing. :D I wish you all the best with your little babies. Mine are now just under 2 weeks old.

Just out of curiosity. How old we're your babies when you pulled them? Do you have a brooder too?

Re: 1st time breeder.
Hi Not sure on the hand rearing at this stage. I haven't had the experience. Although my father in law has and is willing to teach me. Also I work through the day so that makes it a bit harder. Mum and dad are doing such a good job with them anyway. I did buy some hand rearing formula in case they w...

Re: 1st time breeder.
Hi Elphi,
Babies are doing great. They are getting really big now. The oldest one has now opened his/hers eyes.
Mum and dad are still doing a great job. I can hear them in their nesting box being fed.

Hi from Perth.
Hi all, I am new to this forum but in saying that I have been looking through here before I got my IRN. I have found this site to be a wealth of information. Well done everyone for all the great info. I currently have a green IRN named BJ. He's a lovely boy apart from the biting. He's about 18 month...
