Very nice! Is this a proven pair? Are they mating?

I know this sounds gross to some members, but if they mate can you try to get a couple shots of how it works? You can PM pics of you are able to.

I am very interested in bird reproduction systems and the Vasas is very very interesting!

They are bonded and I will try. I already saw his hemi-junk erect and it is quite shocking. Supposedly they have a side-to-side link method that can take half and hour to an hour and also have the traditional method. I will try to capture them in action for learning and documentation purposes. Bryan aka Sir Vasalot

Too cute, you must be over the moon to own not one, but two pairs. :)

So over the moon we named them Astro and Venus. When you get birds from out of state you just never know until they are in your possession and even then you never know if what you have is what they said. In this case, they are perfect. Moses and Eva can now be our pets and Astro and Venus our breeders. To our surprise - these two might have babies this year. Moses is doing great with my wife and we think Eva is trying to say hello. He was a pet and she was not. More pics and vids to follow and thanks for all the kind words!

I'd love to see better pictures of the nestbox too if you wouldn't mind. It is a long rectangle?

We tried a trunk size giant rectangle box at first - now just retreated to an McCaw/Amazonsized L shaped boot box the wife made. Will send better pics tonight.
