Gemstones in a Tiny Bird | Parrotfinch Hatching Adventure

I couldn't believe my eyes when I first saw her beak. Most of these show bird eggs are unfertilised, as they are often kept separate before the event. Still, I can't stop myself from trying somehow :)

Oh i've heard about this! I believe it is a genus of finch that are born with "blue gemstones" as you call them around their beak. Supposedly they fall off when they get older, but they are theorized to exist so that the mother knows which of her babies are actually hers (and not a Coo-coo bird for example)

I have been watching your channel since I was in middleschool, and now I am off to college to become a wildlife rehabilitator, you were a real inspiration to me, thank you for all you do :)

What a blessing you are to your children and to birds.
Your daughters will always remember their dad being kind and compassionate to the feathered two-leggeds in their lives.

[mySweetheart]

I sleep a little better at night knowing there are beautiful souls like yours on this earth. ❤

birdies in need, I love it...That princess was born with her jewels already built in; adorable..❤👑🌟😀🐦

I was able to rescue an abandoned baby sparrow because of things I learned from this man and his channel, unfortunately he's a non-native species so he can't be released but I was happy to raise him and im glad to give him a home for his life.

I've never seen such a huge crop on a chick. And still she screeches for more! What a blessing you are to our world. Showing that sensitivity is important for humanity.

Alwyn, you are a gem of a man to see these as gemstones on the tiny bird!! These markings serve as "bumper-guards" and sight lines for parent birds to hit the middle of the baby bird's mouth, not the edge. Brilliant and beautiful by design! Your daughters are beautiful too! I recall them from your little lamb video! Gems all around! Thank you for your magic!

[Candy-O]

The little bird came out of the egg shell perfectly! The humidity must be just perfect in the incubator!!!!

How fragile yet how strong. And whoever made up the saying 'birdbrain' had no idea how intelligent these creatures are. Once again, Alwyn, your love and dedication paid off. Such a gem of a tiny bird. Thank you for sharing. From Australia.

seeing how small and fragile the baby bird and then it becoming a cute birb, so magical

[thedancersstudio]

Her little dance on his finger when she was getting fed along with the background music was hysterical!

[KibbletKibbles]

I just love how you're always only ever you! No sponsors, no change, no bird left not taken care of! And for that i thank you❤

[ShortOrderCook]

She is such a beautiful little bird with her jewelled beak! And she has such a sweet voice! I've never seen a bird like that before. And the music you chose suited her so well too! Thank you for this wonderful rescue of a special egg!

I began watching you when Albert came from the supermarket as a fertilized egg.he was such an adventurous little guy. All that has happened since then has been such a wonderful journey of learning for you…and for us as you share so many babies, and the challenge of raising them from tiny to large. You continue to inspire with your love and kindness for each and every one. Thank you for all of it. This tiny one was unique with the sapphire blue targets on the beak, the way they grow, from bare and helpless creatures into feathered and confident fliers is always magical to me. I remain grateful to Albert for coming home with you all those years ago, and creeping into your heart…and ours.🖤🇨🇦

I love and appreciate that these event holders allow you to have the eggs, instead of just tossing them out. I am sure not every place is like that but still, it's giving an innocent life a chance to thrive and exist. I always enjoy seeing your videos and whenever you update is always a joy. Bless you Elwyn and keep moving forward.

I love the bald spot of “hungry indicator “ to see if he is full or not
Cute creature.

[debbieschultz]

I love how he cares for such tiny birds. Hand feeding them and petting them as they go on your finger, you have a friend for life❤❤

[mangoth]

There is nothing that brings me more joy than hand raising a newly hatched bird.❤️
