*sighs* More bird talk...

J.J. was killed by the lovebirds today. It looks like the lovebirds entered the nestbox and attacked the two chicks, and J.J. got the brunt of it all. He was always the alert one... I like to think that he was trying to protect Jiji.

Jiji's got a head wound, and I don't know how serious it is. My mom took a look at her and cleaned the wound, but I'm afraid that the wound might be deep. I've been entrusted with her for now and I'm watching her as I type. I'm going to let her rest after I set up something to keep her warm.

*sighs* Poor Jack and Jill. One unfertile egg, one trampled chick, one killed chick, and one wounded chick. I really hope she makes it. The fact that she was eating makes me hopeful.

The lovebirds have been taken out of the aviary and quarantined. My dad doesn't think he's gonna let them in the aviary anymore. I hope he doesn't. Duke and Gretel (the budgies) look ready to start nesting, and I don't want their chicks to meet a similar fate. =\
