    ** Baby Sun and GC New pictures *~*5 week update*~*

    Well I did it .. I been wanting a Sun for years and I went to a breeder and went to see the babies they are 4 weeks old and well I picked one up and it was love at first snuggle. And mean while I should have been watching my husband cause he picked out a 4 week old GCC.

    I know how to hand feed and have many times in the past for other people so, what the heck they came home with us today. I never expected this but I was blessed with beautiful babies.. I am a empty nester with my Skin kid so now my nest is even more full with more feathered kids.

    I would like to introduce

    Atesh




    And Little Nurgle.. Dont blame me for the odd name my husband did it. He plays Warhammer and its one of the gods in the game and he likes the sound of it.

    Re: Baby Sun Conure and GCC

    Oh, they are sooo cute!!

    I just wanna snuggle little Atesh (that's his name right?)

    I have a soft spot for Suns, especially babies. They are just so fuzzy, cuddly, and adorable!!

    They're always so cute when they're in the fuzzy wuzzy stage and they look so innocent. Then they turn into little feathered fiends. Give Atesh and Nurgle a cuddle from me. I'm pretty sure that you'll find Nurgle's name very appropriate if it came from Warhammer.

    Very cute babies. I hope handfeeding goes well, it is good that you have experience since they are so young!

    Would love more pics as they grow...

    Re: Baby Sun Conure and GCC

    I will post new pics this weekend on how they are growing..

    They are feeding well and vigorously and major snuggle bugs. But Nurgle is a bit more independent and likes to check things out and wander around after food. Atesh wants to hang out and look around, hes content after food to chill.

    both very cute, and I love their names- it's nice they'll grow up together, the more pics- the better, since they grow so fast.

    You'll find yourself Nurgle-proofing your place pretty soon - gccs are curious, intelligent, independent and afraid of absolutely nothing! I've found that the only thing that will restrict a gccs roaming is to have his wings trimmed but with my gcc babies (almost 5 mos old) even that hasn't done - it just slowed them down a little bit.

    Oh, so precious!!! And they say "Irish Eyes are Smilin' " but those babies' eyes are smilin' so brightly they'd put the Irish to shame, lol. (P.S. I'm Irish, heehee)

    Awwwww......SO DARN CUTE!!!! I've known my GCC and my Hahns Macaw since they were both about 8 weeks old but didn't bring either of them home until they were fully weaned. There is nothing more snuggly than a baby Best of luck with both of them.
