Here is my male Shirley. His name is beep. He has a song of about 30 to 45 seconds at a run. Its cute b4 he does a long song like that he has a tweet he does like he is tuning up I think he is so cool. I almost traded him for a cockateil (sp) today but just couldnt do it.

Wow, Jeff, he's beautiful! Is is a S. Timbrado, too? Mine do the peep warmups too, really neat birds!
Rick, the parents feed the babies, and they have ground up hard-boiled egg, canary seed, "soak seed" (seed that special for soaking 24 hrs then giving the parents) and "nestling food" which is a mixture of powdery food for a variety of bird species to eat for vitamins, minerals, and feeding their babies. They regurgitate for the babies.

Very beautiful birds Jeff and Shirley!! We had a pair of canaries in Germany that produced some young ones but had to leave them when we returned to the states!  |
