Update of Leonardo and LuluThe babies have taken flight!!! As of 3 days now, they leave the balcony and go for flights with mom or dad quite regularly. Leo was a bit leary at first, but now he's the more adventurous one. They are still not too good at smooth landings, hence we put a tarp on the couch (as they were crash landing on it, then pooping). Feeding time is a very exciting event. They are very loud and now feed out in the open as they are too big to do it under the couch where their sibling egglets are still being sat on. I've included some pics.
One concern.....if you can note from the photos....Leonardo has what appears to be a large piece of poop on his left foot. Will that work itself off on its' own? It's been there for at least 4 days. |

Really cute pigies. Don't worry about the poop on baby's foot. It will come off eventually. My terrace pigie had dried poop and cement on both of her feet, for about two weeks, before tenacious shaking and walking around, finally dislodged the mess. I felt soo bad for my baby when she would try to land and the feet couldn't quite hit the ledge properly.

If mom and dad reared that recessive red youngster, then you can expect them to rear about 50% of all the young to be recessive red (both mom and dad must carry recessive red in a heterozygous state to have popped even one of them). That means, you're going to have some good looking ferals running around that neighborhood for a few years to come.

They look great. The bath should help dislodge that cement poop. It will sure be fun to see them in the bath, I hope you are able to get pictures for us.
