Hi All,
I have finally decided to take plunge and sign up i have been reading forum for some time now.
since i have been a kid i have had IRN's at mother's house aviary. We hand raised one which was bought with pin feathers, which was best bird but was taken suddenly from me after few years eating some poison rat poo,
since then my mother has had aviary of IRN's and they have produced baby's, few years back my mother sold all the Green IRN's and we still had nice Grey Boy, i decided to match him up with a Pastel Blue Hen, after few years bickering there started there first clutch.
The parents had 4 Eggs one was tossed out early and there were 3 remaining 2 hatched and other didn't make it, i had my mother calling every second day, worried the mother is not cutting it compared to other IRNs we had, I haven't lived at home in 15 years and now have little family of my own so i thought i will take what ever we get and hand-rare them, i remember my other one was my best friend, (used to love going onto close basket and picking all pegs out) I thought would be great opportunity.
Below are some pictures of what they are, the both look like there going to be turquoise big one has some nice colors,
Tell me what you all think, but i think its interesting that the Male was Pastal Grey and Female Pastal and i got Turquoise, They are only 3 weeks now but already got some personallity
Here is a pic few days before i pulled out of nest
Little one about 2 week
Big one 2 weeks old
3 Weeks 28/10/2014 (big one)
3 Weeks 28/10/2014 started feeding
Some more pics
Well hope to hear some good feedback, I plan on not selling them but rather part of family now.
Cheers

Awww so cute! I am on the Gold Coast and am getting my first IRN hopefully this weekend. She is a lutino and I couldn't be more excited!
