FROM EGG TO AIR
( peanuts Journey)
In early October, due to a government deforesting project, I received over 40 tiny parrots ( 27 Eastern Rosellas and 13 red rump parrot) chicks, 22 baby Galahs, and 2 Sulphur Cockatoo hatchlings and 9 eggs, My time an resources were stretched to the limit. Of the 9 eggs 7 were viable, on day 3 in care they started to hatch. The first to emerge I dubbed Peanut as the size fitted. This is his progress over 10 weeks from hatchling to release, a very bitter sweet day.
