Oh Ram - they are sooooo sweet! They are starting to look like cockatiels now! I love that bottom shot where they are looking at you "come on dad, let us out"! They have changed so much since your last pictures. Thanks for sharing them - I am enjoying their progress so much

Wow they sure are growing and getting feathers now, how cute.
The photos were taken using my mobile so the clarity is poor.
They have grown rapidly haven't they? To us they are a daily affirmation of the glory of life and I count myself fortunate that wee have had this opportunity.
Almost every moment I find myself being astounded by some behaviour or other of these chicks and their parents.
I have had absolutely no inclination to hand-feed them since th parents are taking more than adequate care. I have started handling the chicks on a regular basis.
Initially the parents were ravenously eating only soft foods. Over the past week, they have slowly cut down on the soft foods and are now eating what I can only term as copious quantities of seed.
I realised that the parents are themselves taking care of the weaning !!
Will keep updating. Incidentally the oldest and biggest is taking after Pakshi, the li'l runt looks like it will take after Khushi, but surprise of surprise it looks like the one in the right in the bottom photo is almost surely a lutino. I read that lutinos are 90% of the time females.
What great pictures! The larger baby looks so in charge and protective of the little ones. Thank you for letting us watch your babies grow!

What cute little birdies and they do resemble little cockatiels now, my favorite picture is the third one with all three looking to the camera as if it were food coming, thanks for sharing them with us and I know you are enjoying every minute of it.
Never take life seriously, no one gets out alive anyway!
oh they are very cute and lovely

Oh they are so cute. I am finding I adore this stage when they have just enough feathers to make them look more bird than dinosaur cousin. Then again, I love them at all other stages too.
