With a member from another forums help i've chosen the name Scamp. She suggested Tramp from "Lady and the Tramp" which made me think of the cheeky little puppy Scamp from the sequel, the only baby in Lady and Tramp's litter to look like Tramp and he's packed with attitude.

Fantastic news!!! Scamp has been filled by Akala!! I'm so happy!! I haven't fed him since 6am this morning and it's now 11:19am and he's totally full as are all the others. What i find helps is scattering the babies around the nest box at feeding time so that Scamp isn't forgotten under a pile of big babies. I'll come home at lunch time (1pm ish) to make sure he's still fed and if i haven't had to feed him by tomorrow morning i think i can leave it up to his parents to care for him.

Now that all the drama with Scamp is over here's some new pics of everybody. They're all getting fluffy butts and opening their eyes....soooo cute!! Mumble at 9 days old Memphis at 8 days old Lovelace at 6 days old Noah at 5 days old And last but not least Scamp at 3 days old They're all doing great, the two eldest are starting to get wing and tail spikes, very exciting! Noah is about to open his eyes and little Scamp is growing like a weed now that he's being fed by his parents. I am starting to get that feeling that in no time at all they'll be grown up and out in the aviary. I wish they stayed fluffy butts for longer! Here's one last photo of Spongebob coming to make sure i hadn't stole a baby.

Here's some new pics of my babies, they were 11, 10, 8, 7, and 5 days old when the photos were taken, which was yesterday. So just add a day and that's how old they are now. Mumble Memphis Lovelace Noah Scamp And for comparison: Scamp one day next to 5c coin Scamp 5 days next to 5c coin

It's all the parents work not mine, i'm the lucky person who gets to cuddle the babies and then give them back to mum for the hard work. LOL!
