I am now a proud mother

....of 2 baby birds :DDD

this is Kuda

And this is Butang ^^
They're from my father's batch of Budgie, and Kuda is around 2-3 weeks old, and Butang is nearing like, 4 weeks? Looks like it.

My father and I have been talking about taming and growing budgies for a while now, and I told him I am very keen to keep one as a pet. So he just came back from the offshore few days ago and we only got the chance to go see if they are babies today. I only seriously researched about them on Google like...15 minutes before actually going to pick the babies up. And I found Kuda first (I have no idea if its a female or a male budgie) and immediately fell in love with it. It was so docile and small and cute and it stayed really still in my hands so i kinda just covered it with my shawl and it continued sleeping.

Butang came slighlty later, and at first i didnt want to bring it back with me. I wanted only one, tapi lepas tu tengok2 macam sayang. So i took it home jugak -_-

And then we were going out for dinner, so my father checked if he was still full. He was. At least Butang was. We went out to Mcd, had dinner, and drop by the pharmacy to get a syringe to feed them.

Feeding was learned from here and here



When I came back, Kuda was outside of the bekas, and Butang macam bukak2 mulut dia. When it saw me, it went crazy chipping. Which of course sent me to panic. Alamakkkkkkk baby lapaaaaarrrrrrrr I went. Of course I annoyed my mother and sister in the process because i was panicking, trying to keep them alive and  trying to figure out how to make their food. Tulah baru nak cari cara. Awal2 xmau buat. Aiyooooooo. I had the instructions in my head. Tapi nak practical tgh panik adalah tidak fun.

So after a few trials and errors, reheating and heating and pekat-ing and cair-ing the food formulae, Butang ate for the first time!!! :DDD (with me la first time) :DDDD

By the end of it, Kuda decided that she/he better spend his/her time sleeping in my palm again. Bila nak letak balik dalam bekas, xmahu turun. Aiyo. But he finally went under Butang and slept. Very cute. Very very cute. Sumpah comel XDDDD

Will be updating about the both of them again sometime later ;p

p/s: esok kena bangun awal la eh nak feed the babies? Alamak?
