Yes, last night i decided that of the two names i had already picked, this baby will be Persnickety (the other name i had picked out was Sassafras). So that will be Snickers for short. :D

Both Cookie AND Bailee slept in the nest box last night which is a first, lucky Snickers had both parents to keep him warm. He's still strong and chirpy and looking way too cute with his fluffy little bum!! Cookie's been eating so much she could be storing up for winter, so i don't mind if she decides to live in the nest box for a few days, lol, but Bailee had better give himself some snack breaks. :p

As to colour, the fact that he's got yellow fluff narrows it down to....normal, pied, cinnamon or cinnamon pied, lol!!! The only thing he's not is lutino cause he's got the black eyes.
 
I can´t wait to figure out which one.....LOL.... Snickers is way too cute!!... yo have some awesome proud parents!!.. congrats once again!!

Here's a photo of baby Persnickety on day two of life! :D He is supposed to have a bald head right? Hehe, he would look pretty funny if he even had fluff on the top of his head...

When do you think i should take the dud eggs out, no more are going to hatch but i don't want Cookie to think she needs to lay more either. Persnickety seems to enjoy resting on them, lol.
 
don,t forget though i no with budgies they will lay a second clutch at 3 weeks old but if this is true with tiels you will get another clutch or you could pull the eggs when they lay them to avoid another clutch
