Keets at 8 Days Old

At 8 days old the keets are noticeably bigger. Their wings
are growing and they can even jump a fly for a few inches at a time.


Left - keets wing growth at 4 days old - Right keets
wing growth at 8 days old. What a difference!

They eat like little piggys


Be prepared to keep the keets brooster clean several times
daily. Here is the keets in a freshly cleaned cage. But not for long, take a
look at the photos below.....


After only 2 hours, these keets were busy! I have spotted
several keets who get a thrill out of using their feet to scratch the feed out
of the feeder. They also somehow managed to get an end of a paper towel in the
water so the water siphoned out of the water feeder.
