| Ok its only like 2 seconds..but you can see they are there....i fed them ll sorts...crushed flake which i dropped right by cave and the female doesnt let anything close....this exlains the odd behaviour by the other females too. however one looks like its gonna die anytime soon. My batteries both need charging for the camera, hence the short vid. Would it be worth while tomorrow going to get some fry food? I got some decapsulated shrimp coming soon but obviously not suitable for little fry. | |

| Excellent! Wow. Fab. If they are similar to krib fry then if they are out and about they are probably several days old, even a week or so. You can get special fry food but I never bothered, my krib fry always picked at sinking pellets/flake and when a little bigger frozen daphnia went down well. Congratulations! | |

| Never noticed them yesterday...today i wondered what the hell was wriggling on the gravel. Im just concerned at they may not get any food as my cockatoos dont eat the sinking pellets stuff...but ive just added a lot of flake and fed the others live shrimp | |

| Oh my god that is soooooo sweet!! I watched it about 10 times. Me & Jade were playin spot the fry, lol. Excellent You can buy a liquid fry food called liquifry but it's pointless as they are in the tank, not a net/trap, it'll disperse to fast. Liquifry no.2 (i think it's no.2) is very fine powder, i'd try that or maybe some frozen food. I haven't got any or i'd send you some. They should be OK munchin on things growing in the tank. Don't disturb em or the mum will throw a fit. What is the other female like now? I think you might have to consider putting her out of her misery judging by the pic you showed me the other night on MSN. You may end up with the parents being spooked by her. Let them do their job without her interferring (if she has the energy) *edit - we all posted together in the excitement | |

| well the other female has become more lively....she is also assisting in the mothering...but is VERY weak... she is picking them up and taking them back to the cave which is odd bahaviour too however tomorrow Im taking the other female cockatoo back and keeping this pair only... and that ill looking one may have to to be finished off | |

| a syringe and airline tubing to push the food down to the fry works a treat!!! im using decapsulated brine shrimp which is like powder which you mix with water. ideal for fry. | |
