Sorry Darren I have know idea, but if you post pics regularly I might guess then<g>.
All birds are beautiful in their own way, so not a good clue<g>.

Awww dear little chap - well done on you for handrearing, must be quite a bit of work involved.

Wouldn't like to hazard a guess at what it is though but can you keep posting pics of him and maybe we can guess as he grows???

Does the little fella have a name Darren???
