I have four children (ages 9, 4, 2 & 1), and the babies fit right into my brood!! They are about 4-5 weeks old, and I took them right out of the nests from the breeder. He told me they were only 3 weeks old, but I know they're older by the amount of feathers they have. I have one df violet, and one...I wanna say a pastel blue/teal color. I've owned many, many birds before, but these are my first IRN's, so I'm soaking up as much info on them as possible. What I've learned so far?? I got a GREAT deal on my df violet, seeing as so many ppl like these bad boys, and how much they're paying for them lol. I was excited to find a purple bird, simply because it's my favorite color!!
I am currently breeding lovebirds, and will probably look into breeding these also, but not this pair. They're too much a part of the ohana already. They are cuddled in their towel right next to me as we speak. They cry when I walk away, put them back into their box, or don't give them enough kisses!! I handraised every bird I've owned, but I've never been so attached so soon!!! I'm surprised my kids aren't jealous, lol. It's quite the opposite, actually. My 1 yr old places him arm around them when I'm holding them all in my arms, and gives them kisses very very gently. They purr and rub their heads against his hands, or simply close their eyes and stretch their necks out.
I will post pictures asap, of my babies (human, and feathered), and I look foward to getting to know everyone here!!
