Day 25: Started to give them vegetables to eat from the garden - even birds need to eat their greens (the leaf pictured is a few hours old, we feed them non-wilted leaves).

Day 6: Catching up on un-posted photos. Heaps of feathers popping up, both have full fledging on both their wings. 

Day 5: The older bird has started making chirping noises (it used to make swan-like baby noises). They look real cute when they stretch their wing as they aren’t co-ordinated enough to balance on one foot.

Day 3: Both the birds can now stand on their feet (kind of). Eating like kings, loves to have feathers stroked on the head. They both like to flap their wings inside their sleeping box.

Day 1: Approximately 18 days old. Reluctant to eat, however started to eat by the end of the day.
