|  L.S.C.Cockatoo Chicks (Popsie & Pippin) 
 We are please to say that "Popsie & Pippin" our  
Lesser Sulpher Crested Cockatoos are doing a 
wonderful job of raising their chick,considering 
its their first time rearing.They have had 
many many attempts at breeding over the years 
weve had the pair,but sadly they never managed to 
hatch any,that was until this year.On the 6th of 
Aug 2011 we heared the squeaks coming from the 
nest box.I was bouncing with joy,and didnt come 
down off the high for days....lol.We have been 
watching them on cctv every day since the 
6th,worried they might not feed them.But we are 
so pleased with their progress,and the chick/s 
are 
getting stronger every day.She dont do much of 
the work though,and he seems to do 80% of it.She 
always was lazy..lol.We will be putting the rings 
on after the weekend,as they have to be 
registered with D.F.R.A. due to them being cities 
birds,and critically endangered in the wild.We 
are keeping one baby ourselves (Well it is her 
first) but all other babies will be available 
once fully weaned.To reserve a baby,you should 
contact us asap,as they will sell fast.
